Most empty nesters live in a home that is too big, costs a fortune in repairs, takes too much time to maintain, and in a neighborhood without amenities. In fact, nearly 70% of active adults ages 55 and up do not live in a community designed around their needs. At OakwoodLife we create gorgeous low-maintenance homes in affordable 55+ communities with resort-style amenities such as clubhouses, pools, spas, pickleball courts, state-of-the-art fitness centers, game rooms, and miles of trails. Plus, our over 55 communities have a one-of-a-kind neighborhood culture based on connecting and contributing. That’s why our homeowners say they have more than just new neighbors, they have a new family. So if you’re wondering what the difference is between active adult communities, senior housing, and retirement communities, check out our website or give us a call and we would be glad to explain. Once you know, you’ll begin to ask yourself “What if”… What if you stayed in that big empty house, in that big lonely neighborhood? What if you decided to join us instead? What if joining us changed your life? OakwoodLife – the best value in 55 plus communities.

Welcome to The Reserve 55+ active adult community’s new clubhouse, The Farmhouse, just outside Denver, CO. The 10,000 sq.ft. clubhouse features a state-of-the-art fitness center with locker rooms and showers, a movement studio with on-demand fitness for adults over 55, and a lawn area for morning yoga or Tai Chi outdoors. No need to worry about intimidating public gym equipment, because every piece of equipment in this fitness center was specially chosen for adults ages 55 and older who may need low-impact exercise options and safer weightlifting equipment. And after your workout, take a good long soak in the year-round therapeutic spa just outside the locker rooms. The Clubhouse’s Great Room has soaring cathedral ceilings with exposed wood beams, an oversized modern fireplace, and larger-than-life televisions for catching a sports game or gathering with friends for movie night. Just past the Great Room, there are multipurpose spaces that become smaller for intimate learning programs and interest groups, and larger for community social events. The demonstration kitchen is used for more than just catering events, because OakwoodLife regularly brings in chefs for cooking classes and sommeliers for wine pairings. Want to take a class on the easiest way to decorate a cake? Join us for a class. Want to learn 5 new summer pasta dishes? Join us for a class. Whatever suits your taste, we have chefs on the ready to help you discover your passion for cooking, try a new cocktail or mocktail, and share your new recipes with friends and family. Game nights will never be the same in this clubhouse’s dedicated Game Room. There’s a poker table for cards, Mah-Jongg, dice, and dominoes. You’ll get quite the workout in the high-tech game simulator with golf, soccer, shooting, baseball, football, and even zombie dodgeball. For games that remind us of days gone by, there’s a 2-person vintage video table loaded with all your favorite arcade games - no quarters needed. Outdoors you’ll find multiple pickleball courts for America’s fasting growing sport, Pickleball. The courts are even lighted for evening matches to avoid the long summer sun. But homeowners at The Reserve for adults 55 and over needn’t worry about the heat. Everyone’s in their new beach-entry swimming pool, relaxing on the sun deck, or taking a lap in the lap lane. Beyond the swimming pool, just past the BBQ patio, there’s even more fun to be had at the bocce ball courts where you can try your hand at lawn bowling’s cousin while getting to know your neighbors. Not one for standing still? Join one of the interest groups dedicated to walking, jogging or biking on the miles of community trails at The Reserve and connected to all of Green Valley Ranch. So if your current neighborhood doesn’t have all these amenities, why not join us at The Reserve in Aurora? You worked your whole life on your career and raising a family. It’s your time now. Why wait? The Reserve has gorgeous, low-maintenance, energy-efficient homes at a price you won’t believe. And with all these amenities just steps from your front door, you can finally focus on your health, your passions, and making new connections with neighbors who become family.

Not only is OakwoodLife the best value in 55+ Active Adult Communities, we throw the best parties! In case you missed it, the Grand Opening at The Reserve just outside Denver, CO was truly amazing! Mother Nature challenged us all day with heat in the 90s then dark storm clouds on the horizon, but our spirits were not dampened. Guests had an amazing day filled with Clubhouse activities like pickleball lessons, golf lessons in the high-tech simulator, card games and poker lessons, fantastic workouts in the state-of-the-art fitness center, Tai Chi lessons, lounging by the pool, martini seminars by famed Bartender Johnny Welsh and cooking classes by renowned Chef Randy Heltsley. At the end of a full day of experiencing many of the lifestyle activities that The Reserve’s new Clubhouse “The Farmhouse” will offer, our performers from Au Malama Polynesian blew the conch shell to call us to the authentic Hawaiian Luau. The blowing of a conch shell symbolizes the journey of the Ancient Hawaiians as well as our own journeys in that eternal moment. While guests and OakwoodLife associates reflected in that moment, better than any Hollywood script could have written, the clouds parted and the sun came out, as if on cue. As guests made a donation at the Luau entrance for the BuildStrong Academy, they were adorned with a flower lei and greeted with the word Mahalo. Then the party began! We were treated to an amazing evening filled with graceful and energetic Hula dancers, exciting and mesmerizing fire performers, hula hoopers and jugglers, and a hypnotic Polynesian Band who somehow transported all of us to the Pacific Islands. The bartenders served refreshing fresh fruit cocktails, and the authentic Hawaiian menu made current and future homeowners feel as if they were dining on the beach under a tropical sunset. Guests participated in hula lessons and learned to tell beautiful and romantic tales with their hearts and hands, were treated to artistic and meaningful Henna tattoos, and enjoyed endless performances by dancers and artists who looked as if they descended from the lines of ancient gods and goddesses themselves. As if the day of activities and the Hawaiian Luau weren’t enough, OakwoodLife proved we not only throw the best parties, we have the best community partners! The Reserve’s partnership with retailers, services, shops, clubs and restaurants made sure that countless Grand Opening guests went home with incredible prizes. Our generous local retailers included The Green Valley Ranch Beer Garden, Coriander Restaurant, White Crane Tai Chi, Nest Home Lending, The Green Valley Ranch Golf Club, 5280 Golf Instruction, El Lucerita Restaurant, Charles Stokes Pickleball, Rapid Switch Garage Systems, and many more who together gave away over $4,000 in prizes. So if you came out to The Reserve Grand Opening event in Aurora, Colorado we hope this video gives you joy as you remember that exciting fun-filled day and night. And if you missed the event, we hope to see you very soon at our next Grand Opening event at The Retreat in Colorado Springs. Come for the activities, come for the food and drinks, come for the prizes, and you will soon see why OakwoodLife is the place you will soon call home.
