Seniors Lodges
Our lodges provide comfortable, safe, and affordable supportive housing for independent seniors 65 years of age and older. Lodge living means you are provided with three delicious, nutritionally balanced meals per day which are prepared on site by our qualified chefs. In the lodge program weekly housekeeping services and recreation coordination is included in your monthly rent. We have subsidized lodge units across all 4 properties, as well as near-market options at Silver Birch Haven. Our friendly staff are always onsite to ensure the safety and security of our buildings and our residents, and we strive to promote an independent, active lifestyle that allows our elderly community members to age in place. Heartland Housing Foundation manages four seniors’ lodge-style living options in Strathcona County and the City of Fort Saskatchewan.
