About This Community

With its indoor heated swimming pool, fitness center and expansive, green campus, Sherwood Oaks is planning for the next generation of retirees. The retirement community opened in 1982 after careful planning by a grassroots effort of retirees who wanted to give themselves and their friends the option to stay in the Pittsburgh area during their retirement. After years of studying other communities, they patterned Sherwood Oaks after the best of what they had observed during their travels.

Today, the retirement community has a renovated Community Center, an expanded wellness program, more dining options and is currently providing services to the next generation of retirees, including:

Excellent ratings by the Center for Medicare Services
Lake-view walking trails
Healthy dining choices
Indoor heated lap swimming pool and Jacuzzi
Therapeutic massage
Exercise, Tai Chi and Yoga classes
Fully-equipped Fitness Center
Newly constructed apartments and patio home residences

Throughout these changes, however, Sherwood Oaks continues as a community where active retirees enjoy the benefits of a secure, independent lifestyle with the backup of on-site health care and unlimited nursing care.

If my parents decide to move up to Sherwood Oaks, it would be the closest for them, location-wise. They had 1-bedrooms and 2-bedrooms, and some had porches. They had different rooms that seemed really good. A lot of people were playing various cards like Bridge, and everyone was very friendly in that community. They had a dining area and café. The dining area and the food were really good.

Sherwood Oaks was above average and not a cheap place. The dining room was very nice. I know they do bus and shopping trips. The exterior was impressive, clean, had flowers, and smelled good.

Sherwood Oaks was very beautiful place. The facility is very, very nice, but too expensive for me. Everybody was very nice there and the staff are very helpful. They took time and made sure that I got every information that I could get. They were very responsive to questions.

We just moved my mother to the Sherwood Oaks and she's very happy. Even though it's the farthest away, it had the best reputation and things for her to do, so it's worth the extra travel. The staff was more than helpful. John, who was in the sales department, helped us through the whole process, so they were very, very good. My mom has an absolutely beautiful one-bedroom apartment. She didn't feel like she was alone there; she felt that she had people to be with. They have plenty of activities and a lot of welcoming committees that help people adjust to being by themselves.

I think the facility seems very nice. They have a "bar" area where they have lockers to store personal items. They can play cards in that room when they like. Everyday they have a dinner buffet, which I have eaten. It is quite good. All the staff have seemed very friendly. My grandma's apartment is very nice (does not seem like a nursing home except that she has emergency pull cords everywhere). The grounds are really pretty and everyone in the apartments have their own yards.
