Escape loneliness and isolation and find happiness and joy in a warm friendly home environment with an engaging retirement community

Welcome to a unique and special community of independent retirement living where we celebrate the joy of living! Whether you love a good book, a game of cards with friends, or sitting in your favourite armchair after breakfast enjoying the stunning views of Colpoys Bay, Wiarton Retirement Residence, located in a stately, fully renovated century home in the senior-friendly community of Wiarton, Ontario is the kind of rural Canadian retirement home you’ve been looking for. Our singular focus is on helping you find the joy in retirement living. It’s why we wake up in the morning and we hope you’ll experience that same sense of joy when you wake up here with us, as one of only 14 residents, living life well in a loving, intimate and caring, “home away from home.”

Wiarton Retirement Residence is independent senior living at its best. Here, we help foster a true feeling of retirement community. We offer a comfortable living space with communal dining, bright and airy common rooms and a variety of single and two person suites to accommodate your living preferences. We celebrate the significance of you! We celebrate your life, your personal milestones like birthdays and anniversaries and we love a good party too – we’ll come together for any special event – Valentine’s Day, Halloween, the holidays, you name it, we’ll celebrate it because you represent a life well-lived and every occasion deserves a celebration!

At Wiarton Retirement Residence we provide the joy of companionship, while respecting your right to live independently. Have you ever really thought about what retirement senior living should look like for you?  Picture this: Imagine waking up each morning at your leisure and heading out for your usual early morning nature walk or casually making your way down to the dining room for breakfast, the choice is yours.  The cook already knows all your favorites but as she does every morning, she’ll greet you with a smile and ask what she can prepare fresh for you today. After breakfast, you might take your coffee or tea and join with other residents in stimulating conversation or wander about the fully manicured gardens, tending to the flowers or enjoying the views from the verandah of the boaters on Colpoys Bay. Read a book in the sunroom, complete a crossword puzzle or join our current “Artist in Residence” as he sets up an easel and paints away on a summer’s day.  Whatever home feels like for you – we know you’ll find it here.

Wiarton Retirement Residence offers the best of both worlds, the joy of peaceful, independent senior living while creating peace of mind for you and your family by providing residents with nutritious home-cooked meals, and relieving you of the burden of daily housekeeping, laundry, home maintenance and repairs. Onsite personal support and care is also available if it’s needed, alleviating the concerns of family members who live out of town and can’t always be nearby to help.

We are within walking distance of Wiarton’s main downtown amenities including cafes, artisanal bakeries, local shops, a summertime Farmer’s Market and of course, Colpoy’s Bay. Enjoy the easy intimacy of a close small rural town community where you’re sure to be greeted with a friendly ‘Hello’ by passersby.  We’re famous for Groundhog Day and Wiarton Willie, the only albino “Weather Prognosticator” around! Service Clubs abound so no need to stop volunteering and if faith is important to you, there are a number of local Churches representing different denominations, all close enough to walk to, on a lovely warm summer day.  In short, we offer the very best in independent senior living within a warm, senior-friendly community setting. If you’re looking for a new place to call home for you or someone you love, you’ll find JOY here.

Wiarton Retirement Residence – Whatever brings you JOY, you’ll find it here!

Independent Senior Living: For today, and all your tomorrows!
