Overview of Legacy Village of Castle Pines

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.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Colorado Medicaid cover memory care?

Colorado Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 311 memory care communities in Colorado. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community 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 memory care communities 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.
