The Manor at Marston Lake

4800 Old S. Wadsworth Blvd, 4800 S Wadsworth Blvd, Littleton, CO 80123
Overview of The Manor at Marston Lake

Twelve beds and 28 years in operation. The Manor at Marston Lake is a small, long-running assisted living and memory care community at 4800 S Wadsworth Blvd in Littleton, Colorado. The two-story building sits in a somewhat walkable area (Walk Score 30), 6.1 miles from Littleton’s city center, though most errands call for a car.

Assisted living and memory care are both offered. Studio floor plans are available. The facility operates on private pay; Medicare and Medicaid are not accepted, which families should factor into financial planning from the outset.

What can be said is that The Manor at Marston Lake is a residential-scale community that has held its footing in the Littleton market for nearly three decades. At 12 beds, it functions closer to a home setting than an institutional one, and that scale defines who it is likely to serve best: individuals seeking memory care or assisted living support in a smaller, more consistent environment, financed privately.

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 455 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.
