Assisted Living, Independent Living & Respite Care · Marietta, GA
Winnwood Retirement Community sits in the Whitlock Avenue Historic District of Marietta, a walkable neighborhood where daily errands are easily manageable on foot. The 70-bed home is built as a four-story residence and offers an array of housing sizes, from studios and one-bedroom apartments to generous two-bedroom units, each built to accommodate different needs and preferences. The neighborhood is well-placed near Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center and shopping, dining, and other community services.
Operating for nine years, the community offers three care types under one roof: assisted living for occupants needing daily support, independent living for those wanting community and amenities with little assistance, and respite care for short-term stays or transitional needs. This mix lets families explore options or adjust care levels without relocating. Pet-friendly policies welcome companions, which many occupants value. Daily support includes 24-hour staffing, concierge services, and transportation access, so residents can uphold routines while receiving help with daily tasks. Fitness and recreation programs promote active engagement, and on-site amenities span a full-service salon, a tasteful dining room for meals, a library, and common areas with fireplaces and pianos for relaxation and social time. The high Walk Score of 84 means visiting family members will find the surrounding Marietta neighborhood convenient to explore on foot, making regular visits easier for those without a car.
The community has a robust inspection history. Over the years, complaint investigations have found no rule violations or deficiencies, and no citations of infection control, resident care, or safety have been documented. This track record mirrors consistent attention to health and safety standards.
