Hearthstone Senior Living
Hearthstone Senior Living is a premier senior living community in Ellensburg, Washington, offering independent and assisted living services to those 55+ in Kittitas County. It is proud to be named the Best Senior Living community of Kittitas County for 2025, a prestigious local honor that highlights its strong reputation. With a 69-bed capacity, the community currently maintains a 71% occupancy rate, which is consistent with the Washington state average, indicating open availability.
Across three visits, the DSHS inspection history shows a positive record of compliance. During the most recent inspection on October 9, 2025, only one deficiency was identified, which is significantly lower than the state average of 31. These specific citations involved fire sprinkler leaks and a failed dry trip test, both of which were repaired while proper fire watches were maintained. A previous inspection in January 2025 also cited a single documentation issue regarding sprinkler testing, and an earlier investigation addressed one substantiated concern regarding assistance with compression stockings. With no history of fines, license actions, or immediate jeopardy findings, this community demonstrates a high standard of management and safety.
The community’s programming includes classes, social events, and restaurant-style dining. With an age requirement of 55+, the community is an ideal bridge for active older adults moving away from homeownership, as well as those who require daily physical support. While specific lists of features are best discussed with the staff, the core services focus on maintaining a vibrant and supportive lifestyle.
Hearthstone Senior Living is an excellent match for older adults in Ellensburg and Kittitas County who value an award-winning community with a proven track record of regulatory excellence. With both independent living and assisted living, combined with its central location, the community is a compelling choice for families in the region.
