How we see The Lodge at Valley Ridge - Verve Senior Living

This lovely community is ideal for a variety of people. The easily accessible golf course is ideal for golf lovers. There's also a ski hill nearby. The community also offers a variety of care to accommodate couples with varying levels of need. Couples where one spouse needs assistance while the other is independent can stay together under one roof.

Central-west Calgary seniors (and family members) looking for a change for the better might find much more than they bargained for. Take all the best things from your current home and move them into a spacious, welcoming community of happy peers. People here live a full life every day, one matched to the person they are at this stage.

This community offers exceptional luxury in a community that is also, in fact, very relaxed. There are many fun activities on the weekly schedule to get people involved and cement friendships. During the winter months, there are indoor activities (the St. Paddy's Day is a hoot!) and lots of outdoor activities in summer, set against the backdrop of the gorgeous exterior greenspace. You can also take part in coffee time, ladies hour, men’s luncheon, happy hour, etc. Staff here make it a goal to focus on the uniqueness of each community member. That apparent in interactions you see here.

Susanne Tarrant, family member

"The Lodge at Valley Ridge became home for my father after my mother passed in 2016. Before we chose this place, we toured 10 places in NW and SW Calgary and it is difficult to compare as they each have differences in what they have to offer. Together, my dad and I chose the Lodge, as we felt it stood out, and hoped for the best.
