Description
About This Community
Otterbein Lebanon exudes both energy and serenity. That’s because its 1,400 gently rolling acres are located amid some of the fastest growing communities in southern Ohio. Only minutes from I-75 in southern Ohio, the Otterbein Lebanon Lifestyle Community sits serenely on beautifully landscaped grounds. Historic Marble Hall welcomes visitors with its grand façade. Tidy homes line friendly little streets. Gardens and ponds beckon. The lovely view of wooded hills changes with the season. And our private entrance to Warren County Armco Park, with its 18-hole golf course and 110-acre lake, is right nearby. This is living!
Designed for active lifestyles in neighborly surroundings, every step leads to something pleasant to do. You’ll find yourself among friends who enjoy the same things you do. Like fishing or fitness walking. Working in the garden, art studios or woodshop. Playing shuffle board or bocce ball on a sunny day, or Wii games indoors. Our new life enrichment center with its pool, fitness center, walking track, reading room and activity rooms engage mind and body.
There's a vibrant social scene. Our monthly newsletter "Echoes", is packed with activities and personal stories. There’s so much to do: Book groups and coffee clubs. Games and parties. Concerts, lectures and educational classes. Prayer groups and choir practice. Once you’re out and about with all these friendly people, Otterbein Lebanon soon feels like a second family!
It's very easy to get out and about. Excursions and local sight-seeing opportunities abound. Explore the nearby historic town of Lebanon with its festivals, or Waynesville with its antiques. Catch a Cincinnati Reds game, the Cincinnati Flower Show, or visit the U.S. Air Force Museum in Dayton. Central to so many attractions, our location is ideal for those who love outings.
As with all Otterbein campuses, you'll have choices and amenities galore. There are options for living spaces, dining, wellness and health care services, life enrichment and so much more. What would you like to do today? You set the pace. We just keep up with you!
Today’s Otterbein Lifestyle Communities is an organization long defined by innovation and compassion. We've been gaining support and momentum since our founding and are still driven by vision and faith.
Otterbein origins date back to 1912, when the first community was built in Lebanon, Ohio. The full story of Otterbein’s founding will inspire you.
Originally a home for the elderly and orphaned, in the 1960’s Otterbein devoted itself exclusively to enhancing the quality of life and holistic growth of older persons.

I moved into Otterbein Lebanon SeniorLife Community. The premises are very appealing. It is extremely well-maintained. There are several activities appropriate for me, and they are outstanding. You are made aware of them through a channel on the TV, so you know what's going on that day or in the future. They have off-site activities, where you would travel in a van they provide. They also have activities on-site. They have a YMCA on the premises. They have a theater and a barbershop. They also have a very nice indoor pool. You wouldn't have to leave if you didn't want to. There are a lot of younger seniors living here, so it doesn't look like a nursing home.
Otterbein Lebanon SeniorLife Community has three different types of rooms. There are apartments that you can rent, as well as the patio homes. They have single family homes that you can also rent. You can get a higher level of care in any one of those three types of units. They have a 4-unit building with 4 patio homes. It's very roomy and well-maintained. I would highly recommend it to anyone. The location is a country setting. It's spread out over 1200 acres that have access to a golf course.
The food here is very good. They have two restaurant-style facilities on the premises. They have a main dining area and a cafe. You can order food and have it delivered to you, if you're in one of the remote locations other than the main complex. You have the option to go with a monthly food allowance and pay for that independently, or you can buy individual meals. You only pay for what you actually use.

The reason we chose Otterbein Lebanon SeniorLife Community is that they have many activities such as a woodworking shop, a model railroad shop, a very large sewing area, and a cafe in addition to a regular meal setting. We liked the homes. They were two- and three-bedrooms. They were set out on a very well-landscaped area. It's very nice inside, very well laid out, with lots of room for furniture and storage.
They have small homes or cottages that are standalone. They also have duplexes where they have four connecting homes, too, but we're looking at an independent house. As needs change, you can move to an apartment.
Anna was very helpful. She set up tours of three homes for us. She provided us with all the information and a tour of all their facilities and basically gave us prices for the different style homes and apartments. They have several plans of payments and she reviewed all those with us, too.
They have a garden area outside and theaters. They have a YMCA branch there with all their exercise equipment, swimming pool, and hot tub. They have guest facilities where families that come to visit can stay. They have different meal plans.

Otterbein Lebanon was very nice and huge. They have a large variety of places from apartments to smaller cottages to larger ones. They have a very nice main building in the front of the community. It has a pool and it has all sorts of activities. They had a nice dining room and a coffee shop. It's very nicely laid out. I have no fault with it. It's just not quite an area we'd like to be in. We'd like to be closer to where we live now. It's about half an hour away, but we had heard such good things about it that we thought we'd look at it.
They have a lot of art activities, things you do with your hands, a library, lots of different clubs, recreational clubs, book clubs, and things for every interest. I think they had things for men doing shop-type work. They have a little bit of everything. They have a beauty shop. We ate in the cafe, but I don't know about the formal dining room.
The staff was very nice, very helpful, very accommodating, and very informative. They have some very good brochures to help you understand what they have and what you have to do. There's plenty to look at to go over to try to make a decision. They said we could come back and they would arrange for us to tour one of the types of homes that we would want if we chose to. They also have religious services and activities. They're Methodist based, and they have a priest that comes in for people who are Catholic. They have all levels, independent, assisted, and nursing.

Otterbein Lebanon is about five or six miles from where my husband is. It's out in the country. It's very nice and it's got all the facilities right there, so you don't have to go anywhere. But still, if your spouse is not with you, then it's kind of far away. I like it and everything, but it's just too far away for me. I've been on a tour, and I've also been out there to see a friend. She was in independent living, and she was there temporarily. Her family was moving, so they put her in there until they got moved and got settled, and then she moved in with them. She was there probably for about nine months.
Everything is open, so you can go from the office to the restaurant, and different things, but if you're wanting to go to like the apartments or to the assisted living or something like that, you have to go outside and go to other different community. It's so big, and I found it difficult to go to different areas. My friend liked the activities. She said it broke up a boring day as she put it, and she was very high on them. She said that she went there because her friends were there.

My mother will be moving into Otterbein Lebanon. The tour was great. I have lived in Lebanon my entire life and I did not know that Otterbein had what it has. I liked all they had to offer for the seniors to do. They won't be just sitting in a house by themselves unless they want to do that. There's a lot for them to do there. It's very nicely laid out and well taken care of. The staff was very informative. He didn't leave anything out. It was very clean. I actually saw a couple of maintenance guys out doing their thing.

Everything at Otterbein Lebanon was nice; I didn't find anything that I did not like there. I didn't get to meet too many of the staff, but they greeted me, and the lady who did the tour was very knowledgeable and not too pushy. It was a good experience.

Otterbein Lebanon was very clean and nice. We were looking at the independent living and at the patio homes. They were very nice and very clean. Price wise, it's very expensive though. The staff was every bit very helpful at getting us in there to see the homes and everything. He was very good. It was very easy for a person to get in and out of the facility. I walk with a walker, and it was very easy. It was laid out very nice.

I toured Otterbein Lebanon for my mom, and it was great. I liked that there were a lot of different options and they had a lot of different floor plans available. They also had tons of activities. The staff was great. The menu seemed good. They had lots of different crafts classes like painting and knitting, and they make gifts for homeless people. They also had a theater, a swimming pool, and a gym.

We chose Otterbein Lebanon for our parents because it's close to my sister and I, so it's convenient. It has more amenities than any other place, and they have all the different levels that they need, starting out in independent all the way up to assisted living and memory care. There's a place for every single level they might need. The staff is incredible. My parents had dinner there for the first time last night, and they said it was excellent. There's something going on every day, but they're restricted right now with COVID. You have to quarantine for a week. Compared to everybody else, their price is pretty comparable. They weren't the least expensive, but they also weren't the most expensive. They were perfect for what we were looking for.

Otterbein Lebanon is very nice. The staff is very nice. Everything is wonderful. The place itself is beautiful. I would recommend it. My mother's room is very nice, very clean, and very spacious. They did bridge and played games. They have a nice restaurant on campus. It was a great cost.

My dad will be moving into Otterbein Lebanon in the beginning of March. It was wonderful, I didnt have any complaints, and its a very nice facility. You can go from independent living, all the way to specialized care. The appearance and cleanliness was good. It was close to his family, and he liked having his own place, until he needs to go to assisted living. The have all kinds of clubs, billiards room, open restauarant, dining hall, a couple of giant pools, train room, and woodworking shop. Outside they have a lake, shuffle board, Bocci ball, and dog run. It was 10 minutes from us.

Otterbein Lebanon is very nice. It's a great place with all kinds of neat things in there. They have a nice restaurant and everything is good. The food was OK and they have activities. They have a really nice rec center, a pool, weight room, and game rooms. It just costs too much. The salesman I met was pretty cool.

My mother has been in Otterbein Senior Lifestyle Choices for 14 years now. They have anything you could possibly want except assisted living. They only have 38 assisted living rooms for over 1,000 people. She had a 2-bedroom, 2 bath house, and she now is in a 2-bedroom, 2 bath apartment. You could have houses all the way up to four bedrooms and a den, and you can have houses all the way down to 1-bedroom, 1-bath, and a living room. It doesn't have a whole lot of assisted living. They're trying to do aging in place, but they're having trouble hiring enough staff and I have to have somebody who's going to be there when they're supposed to. They have independent living, and an absolutely exceptional memory care and nursing home. The assisted living is about to be built over the next three years. You have choices for food. If you're independent, you can cook your own. The dining room is open and you can buy a meal plan or you can go in one meal at a time. They have a cafeteria, a bistro that is brand new, and they just opened a new theater. I can't say anything bad about them except that I need an assisted living apartment, not an assisted living room. They work hard out there. The staff members are the best part of the whole place.
