A name says it all - Westminster Woods on Julington Creek! I love the woods/trees and the creek. I love that the leadership respects and cares for the environment. It also means that they make a special effort to care for all of the residents of this wonderful facility.
Westminster Woods on Julington Creek is a little corner of Heaven! After a year of soul searching, I moved to Westminster Woods six months ago. I have a charming garden apartment designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright - complete with beautiful vaulted ceilings. My morning coffee is enjoyed with friends while we observe anhingas and turtles compete for log-space on Turtle Lake. My Yorkie and I take walks along the river on 90 acres of beautiful biking and hiking paths. A large staff works hard to prepare and serve three enjoyable meals per day. Meals are served in a large open dining room with floor to ceiling windows that overlook the river. I dine at a round table with 6 intelligent friends where we tell our stories, plan our days, and solve the world's problems. There are delightful activities, socials, musical performances, storytellers, etc. planned for us. We have all kinds of exercise classes, on-site Mass, and Vespers overlooking a breathtaking view of Julington Creek.
WESTMINSTER WOODS on Julington Creek is like living in a beautiful wildlife preserve/resort that I can enjoy, but don't have to maintain. What MORE could I ask for??!! Thank you, WWJC, for providing this wonder place!!
I’ve been a resident for a year and a half, coming as a widow at age 75 into independent living. My life life is rich with friends, fitness classes of all kinds, many stimulating on-campus and off-campus activities that satisfy my interests in music, theater, continuing Ed classes, lectures, and volunteer work. The campus is a rare beauty in the midst of upscale suburbia and very pleasant on which to live. The dining room is top notch. What’s not to love? I feel safe and valued.
I have lived here for eight wonderful years and know how lucky I am. The grounds are wonderful but the best part is the staff. You have to be down and out to realize this and I had a really bad year and there they were. Every department was outstanding and I really mean it. I used them all. Oils not be a better place. :)
My wife and I have lived in Westminster Woods on Julington Creek for eleven months. We have made many new wonderful, caring friends. We eat at least one meal per day in the dinning room. It has a beautiful view of Julington Creek and the food is delicious with a wide variety of menu items. Every meal is prepared fresh by experienced chefs. The property on which WWJC resides is one of the most beautiful in Florida. There are more activities than one person could possible do, which include: art classes, Chorus, handbell choir, recorder consort, lectures, craft club, woodworking shop, weekly musical concerts, monthly social, weekly movies, Sunday vesper services and Catholic mass, fitness center and recreational activities. There is a variety of housing accommodations for independent living, assisted living, memory care and health center. The staff is well trained and highly qualified.
I would recommend WWJC to anyone looking for a continuous care retirement community.
