Overview of Creekside Village
At 3100 Falk Rd in the Bagley Downs neighborhood of Vancouver, Washington, Creekside Village markets itself as an independent living community with optional assisted living and memory care options. The two-story building houses one, two, and three-bedroom apartment homes with assigned parking. Pets are permitted.
The facility maintains 24-hour staffing with licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants on-site, complemented by a 24-hour emergency call system and on-site healthcare provider availability. Rehabilitation services include physical, occupational, and speech therapy designed to support resident mobility and functional independence. The wellness program centers on recreational and fitness amenities: a 24-hour fitness center with cardio and strength training equipment, an indoor swimming pool, and spa facilities.
Additional community spaces encompass a library, salon and beauty shop, dining room and restaurant, courtyard and patio areas, and coordinated transportation services. Religious programming is offered.
The neighborhood scores 43 on walkability assessments, meaning some nearby services are accessible on foot but most errands require vehicles. Vancouver’s city center is 27.3 miles away; Fresenius Medical Care is 2.7 miles distant. The facility ranks 387 of 628 Washington senior residences on walkability indices.
Creekside Village does not hold current CMS certification for Medicare or Medicaid.
A geographic inconsistency appears in the facility’s promotional materials: the overview text references “Eugene, Oregon,” while the actual address is 3100 Falk Rd, Vancouver, Washington.
Creekside Village accommodates independent living residents in Vancouver seeking recreational programming, on-site therapy services, and wellness amenities, operating outside the Medicare/Medicaid certification framework as a private-pay community.

Overview of The Firs
The Firs has been running for 43 years on Lilly Road NE in Olympia, Washington, making it one of the longer-established communities in the area. The three-story building sits in a lakeside neighborhood about four miles from downtown, and Providence St. Peter Hospital is less than a third of a mile away. That proximity to a hospital reads as useful context for a community that carries a nursing home designation alongside its independent living offering.
The building holds studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units. Daily support services include housekeeping, laundry, dry-cleaning, and help with grocery shopping. For residents who need or want more hands-on coverage, the nursing home component of the community sits in close range of both the hospital and the surrounding neighborhood’s parks and walking paths, though with a Walk Score of 37, most errands are going to require a car or a ride.
Ms. Susan Crow serves as General Manager. What is established is a long-operating, mixed-level facility in a quieter corner of Olympia, close enough to a major hospital to matter.
