The Highlands Gracious Retirement Living

The Highlands, an independent retirement community, located in Westborough , MA is a great place to live in retirement. The Highlands is abound with excellent amenities, which include individual apartments, daily organized activities and weekly field trips. Something for everyone. The three daily meals are carefully thought out and prepared by talented chefs, which make for healthy and enjoyable dining. I especially like the on-site library where I can read my favorite books, do mindful meditation and enjoy the calm and quiet. I love living here and happy I made The Highlands my choice for home post- retirement.

It’s a nice place to live they just need to be more diverse with their food and understand that people have different needs for what they can and can’t have to eat

My MIL has finally decided to down size and move into a retirement community. She tasked me with looking for and researching a new place to call home. After a few calls around to different places, The Highlands became my top choice for her. It’s an all inclusive home for her. 3 meals a day and plenty of activities for her. The part that sold me was there is no buy in. Meaning that she didn’t have to put $200,000 up front to secure an apartment. We took a tour and my MIL was very happy with what she saw. She signed a lease agreement and put a small deposits down.

Went to visit my grandmother and I was pleasantly surprised at how nice this place was. It was like living in a hotel!

My mother lived at The Highlands for almost two years, until she recently passed away. I think those two years were among the happiest in her life. The managers, Ned and his wife, Mary Beth, were exceptionally kind to my mom and went well beyond anything that could have been expected of management. They kept an eye on her health, her eating, and helped her whenever she needed assistance. Bonnie, the social director is also wonderful. Truthfully, I was shocked that almost the entire staff truly cares about the residents. Many staff members cried when they learned my mom had passed away. The facility is lovely, modern, and clean, with well-maintained gardens and pathways. My mom enjoyed the many social activities and made several good friends. She even loved the food!
