This week we’re excited to kick off a new feature at the Sunbound blog called the “Community Spotlight”. At Sunbound, we pride ourselves on only working with the highest-quality communities, built by name-brand, top of the line developers. We would never recommend a community that we wouldn’t want one of our own loved ones to live in (and with some of the amenities offered, some members of the Sunbound team have even considered making some early applications for membership themselves!). 

Since we’re so passionate about making sure that you find the perfect home, we figured it made sense to spread the word about all our favorite communities around the country that our customers love! So each week, check the Sunbound Blog to see a new community highlighted. For our inaugural edition, we are starting with Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek.

Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek provides a uniquely high-quality, resort-style senior living community for either independent or assisted living. Built by Robson Communities - one of the most well-known and best respected home builders in the country - Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek sets the standard for senior living with its high levels of hospitality, care, and luxurious amenities. This quality is reflected in all the industry honors Robson Reserve has won including a Gold Award, the highest distinction, for Best 55+ Indoor Common or Amenity Space and a Silver Award for Best 55+ Independent Living Community from the National Association of Home Builders.

One of the best parts about Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek is that not only does it offer its own set of amazing amenities and services, residents can also access all of the world class amenities provided at the neighboring 55+ active adult community, Robson PebbleCreek. Simply put, Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek has everything that you would want and need out of a senior living community.

Premier Home Builder

One of our favorite things about Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek is that the community is built by one of the most well-respected and successful builders in the country – Robson Communities. Founded by Ed Robson in 1972, Robson Communities has spent the last 50 years building the highest quality communities for older adults, earning a sterling reputation for quality homes and stunning amenities in the process. Don’t just take our word for it though, trust the over 50,000 people that call a Robson community home. We love that standing behind Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek are all the resources, knowledge, and expertise of one of the country’s premier housing brands.

World Class Amenities

As with all Robson communities, one of the things that makes Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek so special is all the high-end, resort-style amenities available to residents. This will become clear to you as soon as you walk into the building, noticing not only the beautifully decorated lobby but also the entrance to the private movie theater, which is used for everything from classic movie nights to screenings of Sunday NFL football games. The theater is just one of the many amazing amenities available, which also includes a state of the art fitness facility and a resort-style pool, part of Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek’s commitment to its residents’ wellness.  Finally there are three of the residents’ favorite amenities: a beauty salon and barbershop, full-service cocktail bar as well as a spacious dog park (one of the largest in the country!)

In addition to these amenities provided on-site at Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek, Robson Reserve residents also have the option of enjoying all the amenities that are available at the neighboring active adult community (for ages 55+), also owned by Robson, called PebbleCreek. For a discounted rate to the HOA dues paid by PebbleCreek owners, residents of Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek get access to a wide range of additional luxury amenities at the 55+ residential community, including its resort style pool and spa facilities, 54 holes of professional golf, and its five restaurants. Having access to everything that PebbleCreek also has to offer truly makes Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek one of the most uniquely amenity-rich communities in the country.

Fine Dining

Another one of our favorite things about Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek is their absolutely top of the line dining options. These include a range of beautiful dining venues, such as the elegant main dining room, private dining areas for personal events, as well as a more casual café and full-service bar. What really though makes dining at PebbleCreek so special is that the meals are all prepared by a team led by world-renowned chef Stephen Window, whose exploits include helping open Roppongi, one of America’s top rated restaurants by Zagat. This is yet another example of Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek setting the bar for premier senior living communities, going above and beyond industry standards for dining by providing its residents with the highest quality meals possible (trust us, we’ve had them). 

This also helps highlight again how Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek improves the lives of its residents in so many ways. By offering high-quality and delicious meals, PebbleCreek not only provides top-flight nutrition as part of its overall wellness approach, it also provides yet another amazing arena for socializing amongst residents, as residents love hanging out at all the dining options and seeing all the new, delicious offerings prepared by Chef Window.

Social and Wellness Opportunities

Along with providing its residents access to a host of the highest quality amenities, Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek also provides a wide range of social groups and activities focused on resident wellness. One of the keystones to providing senior care is providing opportunities for social engagement, which is something that Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek is deeply committed to. 

PebbleCreek not only offers a range of exercise and swim classes in its state of the art pool and exercise facility, it also offers its residents a variety of cultural and educational activities, including speakers from local universities, health seminars, and live presentations as part of Robsons Lifelong Learning series. Finally, PebbleCreek also offers a range of social trips in and around Arizona, including to nearby golf courses or cultural tours. What makes PebbleCreek such a unique senior living community is not just the luxurious amenities but also the palpable sense of community among its residents. 

Independent and Assisted Living

Another great thing about Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek is that it offers both independent and assisted living options. We’ve found that the flexibility to offer both can be of great benefit to residents.

While PebbleCreek offers both options, most of the residents at Robson Reserve choose independent living. This allows them to enjoy PebbleCreek’s luxurious amenities and vibrant community atmosphere, while ditching all the things that people generally dislike about home ownership - like taking care of housekeeping, repairs, and yardwork (and depending on where you’re coming from, shoveling the snow!). The staff at PebbleCreek are there to assist with things like twice-a-month linen services as well as weekly housekeeping. In addition to these services related to household upkeep, life at PebbleCreek is also made easier by things like regularly scheduled transportation for shopping or medical visits, as well as access to on-call concierge services. All of this support allows residents to stay active and engaged with the things that truly interest them, not bogged down with chores. 

While many residents at Robson Reserve live independently, one of the advantages of living at Robson is having access to its assisted living facilities should the need arise. While it’s no one's favorite topic, medical emergencies or other life events sometimes require individuals to seek additional care in retirement. Having Robson’s certified caregivers (including nurses available 7 days a week) will allow you to maintain a high level of service and comfortable luxury while at the same time receiving the highest quality care should the need ever arise.  

Prime Location

Finally, Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek is based in the fantastic city of Goodyear, Arizona. Goodyear is a small town that comprises part of the greater Phoenix metro area. As we’ve covered elsewhere Phoenix is one of the best places in the entire country to retire, and so living in Goodyear gives you access to all the things that make Phoenix great for retirement: warm weather, low taxes, and a great cost of living. Goodyear also provides particular benefits to retirees: by being on the smaller side, Goodyear provides a quieter lifestyle than an area like Scottsdale or Tempe, while still being just a short drive away from all that these towns have to offer. 

Closer to Robson Reserve at PebbleCreek, there are some particular local favorites like the Falcon Dunes Golf Course or one of PebbleCreek’s own professional quality courses. For nature fans there’s not only easy access by car to Arizona’s beautiful outdoors, but PebbleCreek is also close to the Wildlife World Zoo. And for sports fans, Major League Baseball’s Cleveland Guardians, Cincinnati Reds, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Chicago White Sox have their spring training facilities nearby.
