I am a long-time resident of Stoneridge Creek and I continue to enjoy the food, service, facilities, and fellowship of the residents. They really know how to celebrate the holidays here at the Stoneridge Creek Retirement Community.

My husband and I arrived at Stoneridge Creek nearly three years ago and each day we feel as if we are living a dream in Tuscany. The variety of activities from entertainment to physical and mental fitness keep us feeling young and vital each day. The location of Stoneridge Creek is perfect. We enjoy access to wineries, shopping and hiking and bicycle trails. We have had a couple of health issues that necessitated assistance from the Stoneridge Creek staff. In every case, their knowledge and skills exceeded anything we could wish for and reinforced our confidence that this is the place to be at this time in life.

We moved here almost a year ago. It is time to write down our experience and our thinking process of choosing a retirement community. We lived in Danville for over 32 years. After our four kids left home, we decided to downsize. Where to is the million dollar question. We really didn't feel like going through the cycle of selling, moving, buying another house then selling and moving again. So we bit the bullet and decided to look for a retirement community and do the last move of our lives, even though we are relatively young - late 60s. We looked around. We knew we wanted a community with large spread of land to walk around and play sports, strong health care facility inside, close to everything we care about - food, ease to go to SF for shows and restaurants, within an hour of driving to any of our four kids in the Bay Area, and shopping like Costco, Ranch 99 and Asian food! The choice is very limited for all of these needs. Stoneridge Creek was it. Most other CCRCs (Continuing Care Retirement Community) in the Bay Area are built around high rises with very little land around it because it is the Bay Area where land is crazily expensive. We just knew we didn't want to ride elevators up and down all day if we move there! After a year here, all of the above have been proven to be the case for us. But the biggest surprise about this place is the amazing people here. Because it is in the middle of the Bay Area, we have the most diverse, interesting, educated, highly accomplished residents here. We have made more good friends in one year here than all of our 32 years in Danville! Practically everyday we engage in deep conversations with some residents where we all learn from each other. Our advice to people in similar position as ours: Don't wait too long. Move while you are still vigorous so you can learn new things and friends. Also you may not pass the mental agility test if you wait too long! Don't worry about your stuff in your big house. Believe me, none of your kids or friends would want your furniture or decoration. Donate them and let some other people enjoy them. Get rid of them and build a new life for the last 20 to 30 years of your life. Don't waste the most important years just because you can't part with your stuff. They are not important. We lived in a 7000-foot house, we thought it was impossible to make the move to Stoneridge. We are so happy now having done that. No gardener, no pool guy, no house cleaning, no worries about maintenance, just spend time having fun, learning pickleball, joining committees, making new friends, and even did a solo concert. Do we, as residents, have worries about Stoneridge Creek despite the fact that it is just as great a place as any CCRC can be? To be honest, yes. Primarily because of yearly monthly fee increases which many residents worry about because of the uncertain nature of the matter. What makes me feel hopeful that we can reduce the amount of uncertainty is the fact that management and owners here seem to be willing to have more transparency and working relationship with some of our residents with deep background in finance, health care, management, IT, etc. I will come back here in about 9 months to report progress on that front.

My wife and I moved here 3 1/2 years ago. We had been thinking for some time about finding a place to retire. We had been living in townhouses and condos for 25+ years and wanted more community than seniors typically get in those environments. One visit to SRC was all it took to decide this was the place for us. We were immediately struck by the friendly and welcoming residents and staff. We could see residents enjoying the company of each other - people we met that day are friends now. Yes, SRC has nice grounds, good food, great residences, continuing care, but so do a lot of places. Here, it's the people. Our experience during Covid has done nothing but reinforce our original opinion - SRC is a caring COMMUNITY and we're glad to be here: staff and management have kept us safe, residents have buoyed us when things felt dark. Can't recommend SRC enough

My husband and I met with the Senior Residency Counselor for a tour of Stoneridge Creek. It is so beautiful, with plentiful, well-maintained residences, facilities, amenities, and common areas. We had a delicious lunch outdoors with our host and felt like we were eating at a fancy country club. There are more activities available than I can even remember, including gorgeous pools, 3 restaurants, yoga and dance classes, an observatory, library, and crafts rooms. The Residency Counselor did not do a hard sell, but he was so welcoming and knowledgeable that we felt right at home. When we are ready to sell our home, we will look forward to the Stoneridge Creek lifestyle, free of ownership responsibilities, with time to enjoy all that community has to offer.

I took a tour with Nancy for a place for my grandparents, and she was so incredibly helpful! She knew the answer to every single one of my questions. I really appreciated her kindness, understanding, and empathy for our situation. The community is beautiful, and seems like a really great place to move to. I hope there's availability there when I eventually retire!

It’s mid-March and I am so thrilled that much of our life here at SRC is opening up again! Dining venues are almost all open, fitness is having a soft reopening, billiards are coming back and even the Movie Theater is opening next week! Yay! I am so pleased at how well the management here has safely protected us over the part year with only 2 Covid cases among residents. And now we have Herd Immunity since the residents are 99% vaccinated and the staff is 85% vaccinated! Life is almost back to normal and this year has reinforced my great decision to move here almost 5 years ago. I am so happy that I live at Stoneridge Creek!

We have lived at Stoneridge Creek for seven years. We have never regretted the decision to move there. We feel safe, well fed and well cared for.

After almost three years and experiencing the Covid pandemic, I rate Stoneridge at the top. The care, thoughtfulness and creativity to help keep residents and staff safe and not get worried or too cranky has been impressive. The many places to enjoy quiet and peacefulness surrounded by beautiful gardens, waterfalls, art and birds of every kind make isolation bearable. And as restrictions lighten up, the fun of being with friends safely has been terrific.

At 76, our priority was to continue life in the East Bay where we had lived for more that 40 years. We focused on SRC because our family does not live nearby, and we wanted the comfort of knowing our health and living needs would be met by assisted living or nursing care all on the same campus. We moved in May 2019 under the guidance of Mary. The process could not have been better, and we continually reflect on the wisdom of making this choice while we were young and healthy. On arrival my wife experienced hip pain and ended up having both hips replaced. Walkers, transport chairs and canes were all provided. Her recovery was greatly enhanced by the availability of physical therapists at Creekside who came to our apartment for PT. She was able to use the pools to water walk and speed her return to health. The nursing staff on site came to us to change dressings and check to be sure all was going well. We love the architectural beauty of the campus and all the landscaping touches that make us feel like we might be living in Italy in an Italian Villa. We enjoy the entertainment, pools, exercise options and the location. We have access to parks, biking and wineries. We could go on but suffice to say we are grateful each day for the privilege of living in such a wonderful place.

A couple of years ago, our daughters in Chicago started to discuss the option of us moving closer to them so they will be able to take care of us when in need. Not willing to leave the warm California climate, we started to consider moving into a CCRC community to ease their worry. After some searching and comparing, we chose Stoneridgecreek (SRC) in Pleasanton. The SRC campus is conveniently located. It is spacious and beautiful. There are a variety of dinning options with tasty dishes to choose from. There are also many programs to help keep the residents physically active, mentally challenged and culturally enriched. The residents are friendly and rich in life experiences to share. We enjoy the relaxed and worry free living here and value the security and peace of mind we’ve experienced. The on-site 24/7 emergency help reassures us and our children we will be under good care when in need. When COVID-19 began, we have witnessed SRC management and staff making timely changes not only comply to the State guidelines but also continue to provide residents with well planned meals, activities and services. We are nervous about the virus. But it is comforting to know there is a dedicated and caring team in SRC working hard to protect us. Thank you Stoneridgecreek!

Pandemics? what pandemics? This is exactly how I felt in the past few months. A peace of mind is what Stoneridge Creek gives me during the shelter-in-place time. I really have to praise what the managements have done for the residents here, from fulfilling our physical needs to satisfying our mentional needs. From day one, meals, snacks, drinks, etc. were delivered to our doorstep. You need more? no problem, there's a virtual market for us to order what we need, the staff will pick it up and, again, deliver to our front door. All the weight gain jokes from shelter-in-place will not work in Stoneridge Creek. We have all kinds of Zoom exercises, lectures, classes and games to fill up our days. I feel so fortunate that I'm in this community during this difficult time. I don't have to worry about where to get food, I don't have to fight for the groceries, I don't have to be nervous on all the "IF's". I know I'm safe here, I know I have been taken good care of by Stoneridge Creek, my family can also be relaxed and worry free. Thank you, Stoneridge Creek. You are the best!

I feel so lucky to live in this award-winning continuing-life retirement community. The staff is wonderful. Their care for our residents shows, especially during this pandemic. We all want to be safe from COVID-19. To comply with local government regulations ,the staff works hard to ensure our health and safety. For example, we are not allowed to dine in any of our three restaurants. Instead, the staff works diligently to deliver our individual meals directly to our doorsteps. This is not an easy task; there are more than eight hundreds of residents in our community. The staff also helps our residents stay active and connected with each other. Through Zoom, the staff provides fitness classes, lectures, painting classes, and games. So, even though we have to shelter-in-place, we continue to have fun! I like that I can stay connected with my fellow residents. The residents are helpful and kind, always making me feel welcome and at home. I have made many friends since I moved in two years ago, and I really treasure these friendships. I am grateful to live in this wonderful community, where we, residents and staff, work together to stay healthy and live safely through this horrible pandemic. Thank you SRC, I truly enjoy living here.

I visited Stoneridge Creek and was very impressed with the facilities, the staff, and the people who live there, who I found to be active and interesting, fully engaged with this community. They have various sized spaces, all beautifully laid out. It is close to the outlets, golf, and charming Pleasanton.

Glad that we made the right decision to move from Santa Rosa after living there for 45 years to the Stoneridge Creek Retirement Community 2 years ago with its ideal location within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. We were lucky to have a blend new 3 bedrooms unit up on the 3rd floor facing a courtyard and the outdoor swimming pool. Within the campus, there are many sport activities you can do. For us, we like to play tennis, pickleball, shooting pool and ping pong. If you want to be active in the community, there are 64 clubs and committees you can join, not to mention the many classes, lectures, concerts and outings that you can participating in. According to our friends who have visited us, they were amazed with the food we have in SRC. They said we are like living on cruise ships, except it is on land. With the continuous care facility right on campus, it gives us a peace of mind in case we do need that in the future. However, the thing we treasure the most is the many new friends we have made here. It is like living in a summer camp with your friends everyday!!!!! Finally, I have to say the management team in SRC has done a fantastic job in keeping all the ~1000 residents safe from the COVID19. Our daily meals are delivered to our unit.You can order groceries to be delivered without service charge. They even tried to entertain us with a dance troupe going around the campus, gave us thoughtful gifts and treats and called us on the phone to see how we are doing from time to time. That really showed that they really care for the well-being of their residents. Just can't say enough good thing about living in SRC!!!!! Ed

I am so lucky to have moved into Stoneridge. Comfortable, pleasant, loads of activities, great location, fun people and fabulous staff. During this Covid outbreak they have made us all feel so safe and secure. Couldn’t be more happy to have moved here

We moved in the Stoneridge Creek when in opened in September of 2013. After 6 years here we still love it and are so happy we are able to live here. As a continuing care community, there is assisted living and skilled nursing on site should we need it. The staff are kind and fun. The food is excellent with much variety, and the activities are endless. Our advice is to move in before you think you need it so you can participate in all activities and make good friends.

Stoneridge Creek's facilities are fantastic. It's very large and has the largest amount of amenities. They have very good food except they only serve one meal a day. They have a pool and they showed me a fairly extensive list of possible activities. At first blush, it looks like a superb facility, with excellent capabilities, and absolutely wonderful furnishings, but if you think about going downhill from there to needing help, then it drops off dramatically. Their food is not gourmet, but it's very good. The place itself is beautiful and gorgeous.

Stoneridge Creek is large. It has about 900 units, with single family residents and apartments. It's high-end, expensive, and well-done. There were lots of really nice landscaping. They have bocce ball courts, tennis courts, bicycle trails, and 3 restaurants. They have a separate facility for assisted care and a nursing home onsite. They've been open 3 years and they're already full.

Stoneridge Creek was absolutely fabuluos. Everything about it was good, except it's a buy-in, so you have to come up with $3,800 a month to live there. However, it's cheaper by the month than other communities. They had exercise classes and a beautiful pool. The pool was indoor and outdoor because the roof opens. The chefs were tops. I mean, their food was like you're in the Taj Mahal. Definitely, Stoneridge Creek was a beautiful place.

We visited Stoneridge Creek. It was extremely elegant, gorgeous, and posh and had incredible facilities. However, it was very expensive. It had separate dining rooms. Uou buy an apartment or condo, or little casitas, and as you age, you move up to assisted living or nursing. A lot of the residents were my friends. It was a warm place with good food. They had everything and took them places for shopping, doctors, or wherever you want.

Stoneridge Creek was top of the line, very nice, and had everything you could imagine, like swimming pools, libraries, and a beautiful dining room. There were residents playing pool and shuttles taking the residents to San Francisco and other places.

Stoneridge Creek is near where my daughter lives, but it was relatively high in price. The scenery was very nice, no question. It would be fun to live there. It’s a well-run facility and we liked it there. We had one meal and the food was very good.

It has impressed us enough that we put our name down on the waiting list. They offer everything, and it is not a rental type of thing, but you buy a unit -- whether it is an apartment or a studio or what they call the villa and I guess they are even offering penthouses -- varied in price, but you never own titles to the property, so you can't borrow against it. What you do is buy an interest, and they furnish everything. Long-term care and everything else, they have a facility for that. It is on a 48- acre plot in Pleasanton, and it is very nicely and professionally done. There is no question about it. It is secure. In fact the last time we went down there, we had more trouble getting in than anything else that I have come across. We came up to the guard house, the window was closed as there was nobody there, so we drove on up to the gate. Well, the gate doesn't open. So we honked, and finally somebody opened up the gate and we got in. They wanted to know what we were doing and who we came to see. It is very secure as far as I am concerned -- well-fenced. Stoneridge Creek has their own restaurant, they have exercise facilities, it is well-staffed during the day, and they have a very large pool that has a retractable roof on it. It is very professionally done, and we were very much impressed. It is very hard to beat, and we haven't come across anything better or have heard of anything better. You buy the place, you have your interest, and they give you one meal a day whether it would be breakfast, lunch, or dinner, which is enough for us. It is new and well-maintained. Of course being fairly new, it is easy to maintain, but we were very impressed.

I think Stoneridge Creek is excellent. They have a lot of activities. The apartment we selected is 1,200 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths. We had lunch there, and the food was very good. They have a large pool, tennis courts, biking trails, and walking trails, and then they have individual meetings of different groups all the time from yoga to chair yoga to their foreign policy group. I believe they have about 400 people.

Stoneridge Creek was bigger, cleaner, and spread out a little bit. It was very nice, and it was more expensive than the other ones I have visited. It has a nice swimming pool. Everything was very clean, and the facilities are actually better than those in other places.

I visited Stoneridge Creek because I knew somebody who lived there. I didn't have a formal tour, but my friend gave me the tour. I thought it was pretty. I just didn't see any interaction because it was evening, but I thought the facility was lovely. It's brand new and I didn't see anything negative about it. It was very comfortable with lots of recreational activities. She showed me her apartment -- I can't remember if it was two bedroom -- but what I liked was that they had shift bedrooms, in case someone wanted to visit you overnight and that was a real plus factor too.

Stoneridge Creek Retirement Community has a lot better features than all the others. I am not quite ready for an advanced care place, but it is independent living, and it is very nice. It is like a cruise ship. We have a lot of activities, including meals and so forth. We have trips, lectures, movies, arts and crafts, and Bingo. The dining room is very nice; it is like a restaurant. I like that it is brand new.

StoneRidge Creek Pleasanton is an absolutely incredible facility. They have a huge swimming pool and golf. course It's really sensational. It has three different restaurants. It has a private room and television room for showing movies. It's quite impressive. It also has a billiard's room for men. It's one of the places where you need to buy in to. I was so impressed with the facility and I couldn’t believe that place like this existed.

Stoneridge Creek will be having its grand opening this October. Our visit to this community was fine. Their staff was very helpful. They have 42-acre of land and they have three different types of accommodations. They have the high-rise apartment building, they have right by the pool area some very lovely apartments, and then they have a whole host of independent living homes. They also have separate facilities for extended care, for dementia care and for assisted living.

My wife and I were looking for a place and we went to Stoneridge Creek Pleasanton Retirement Living. The facility had a lot of features that were attractive for seniors like us.
