Legacy Village, a 120-bed community offering independent living, assisted living, and memory care in Castle Pines, Colorado. That combination under one roof matters for families who want continuity: a resident can move from independent to assisted living or into memory care without leaving the community entirely.
Floor plans run from studios to two-bedroom units, which gives families some flexibility in how they set up a resident’s space. The Castle Pines address sits south of Denver in a quieter suburban corridor with a Walk Score of 15. This is a car-dependent area. Visiting family should plan to drive; so should anyone handling errands on a resident’s behalf.
Legacy Village operates on a private-pay basis and is not CMS-certified, so Medicare and Medicaid coverage tied to federal certification are not available. That is a structurally important fact for families building a financial plan. Costs here will be out-of-pocket or through long-term care insurance, and families should engage the community directly on pricing.
The administrator of record is Rachel Davenport Vandenheuvel.
What Legacy Village is is a mid-size, private-pay community positioned for families who want a continuum of care in one location and have the financial means to fund it privately. The physical setting is suburban and car-dependent, which suits a lifestyle where mobility is retained or where family can reliably provide transportation.
Bethesda Gardens, an assisted living and memory care facility, is ranked as one of the trusted memory care and assisted living facilities in Phoenix that is best in its class, brought by the premier level of care entrusted to residents. The stimulating environment of the community boasts an innovative and modern approach to senior care; they have ensured that they provide a spectrum of care as they understand the unique needs of each individual that aims to enrich a fulfilling lifestyle for its residents. Bethesda’s management and staff are well-trained professionals who ensure that residents are heard and provide a lifestyle that suits their needs.
Bethesda’s lifestyle is focused on growth and enrichment; they provide essential amenities and services such as their Diabetes for Center for Excellence, hair service salon, and scheduled transportation. Benefits include assistance with daily activities, medication management, and 24/7 licensed nurses on-site.
A proud MorningStar Senior Living Group member, MorningStar of Fort Collins provides exceptional assisted living and memory care services tailored to each individual’s needs. The community prides itself on providing the best services; striving to be the top-ranked assisted living community in Aurora. An elegant community that is built on its contemporary design and styling, allowing for a more luxurious environment while providing resort-like service. Residents of MorningStar of Fort Collins can rest assured that they can feel like they’re a home away from home.
The community boasts elegant designs and upscale amenities such as its dining room, brightly-lit lounge areas, spacious apartments, courtyard, and arts and crafts studio.

Management encourages residents to participate in activities and maximize the amenities to socialize and promote a warm and welcoming environment.
Denver’s Belleview Station corridor, tucked between Cherry Hills Village and Greenwood Village, is home to a 207-bed high-rise called The Carillon. It’s not a single-purpose building. Assisted living, independent living, and memory care all operate under one roof at 4855 Niagara St, which means a resident’s care level can shift without a change of address.
The neighborhood itself scores a 63 on Walk Score, moderately walkable territory where some errands are doable on foot but a car still helps for the rest. Inside, residents pick from studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units. Transportation services are available for residents who’ve stopped driving, and there’s a dedicated fitness and recreation offering for those who want to stay active rather than sedentary.
Pets are allowed here, a detail that carries real weight for residents unwilling to part with a companion animal as part of a move. The community operates on private pay, worth flagging early for families building out a financial plan. Ownership and administration are both handled at the local level: a Colorado-based operating entity holds the property, with an on-site administrator managing daily operations.
Put together, this is a building designed around continuity. A resident who starts in independent living and later needs memory care doesn’t have to leave the community to get it. For families who’d rather solve that transition once, in a familiar building with a familiar staff, that structural feature is the one worth paying attention to.
Operated by Peakview Operator LLC, Peakview Assisted Living and Memory Care serves seniors in Centennial, Colorado. The community is on South Liverpool Street and offers assisted living and memory care in a single building. James Ryan Ludke serves as administrator, while Jennifer Jackson is the owner.

The community accepts private pay. Pets are allowed, so residents may keep a companion animal when they move in. Transportation services are available for appointments, errands, and planned outings. Fitness and recreation programs are available for movement and regular activity.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Colorado
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Colorado?
Assisted living in Colorado supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Colorado?
Assisted living in Colorado is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does Colorado Medicaid cover assisted living?
Colorado Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Colorado) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 438 assisted living facilities in Colorado. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Colorado?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Colorado, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Colorado?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
