The Beehive is a wonderful place.  The staff is warm and welcoming.  They do more than just attend to the residents need.  I feel like everyone from the administrator, managers, care staff, activity coordinators to the kitchen staff, housekeepers and maintenance genuinely cares for each and every resident.  It is nice to see a community truly live their mission statement of “Exceeding expectations of loving thoughtful care.”

Rob Marotti

I have nothing but great things to say about The Beehive Retirement Center. The staff takes amazing care of the residence that live there and are super nice to visitors. The building is warm and inviting and a place I would place my loved ones if they lived here in Washington and needed the care that is offered. They host many events for the residence as well as the community to attend throughout the year. The director Erin is very professional and goes above and beyond to please the residence and their families. I highly recommend the Beehive.

Friendly Earth Farm

My mother had a smooth transition into this facility.  It feels like a community and people are very friendly.  Caregivers are friendly and skilled.  They have been excellent about communicating with me when necessary.  My mother says the food is really good too. Thumbs up for the Beehive!  Thank you, Erin and staff!

Megan Sherwood Wilkerson

My mother received excellent care during her year at Harmony House. The staff was kind and caring, and always took the time to answer my questions and address any of my concerns. Nothing prepared me for caring for mother when she developed Alzheimer’s Disease. But knowing that at the end of her life she was in the hands of those who could do what I could not gave me great comfort. Thank you Beehive for all you did for mom and me.

Candace Cahill

The staff seem really well trained in dealing with elder issues including dementia diseases. Mom is treated with respect and kindness.

What To Expect When You Visit?

We know what this feels like. You want to do the right thing and make a great decision. You want to make sure Mom’s cared for by people who will love her like their own family, without sacrificing dignity or draining your family’s savings. We’re here to help you do your best, so you can feel confident moving into this next phase of life.

No sales pitch. No pressure. Instead:

You’ll share your loved ones’ specific needs so we can make sure your tour covers what you want to know

You’ll tour the community, join us for a meal, and visit our assisted living and memory care areas

Meet the people who will be caring for the person who cared for you

Discuss practical matters like your budget and timing

Answer every question you have so you can feel certain you’re making the absolute best decision

Pricing Transparency

None of this matters if you can’t afford it. Other websites may post their pricing online, but we believe this creates a misleading picture. This sets false expectations that lead to disappointment when people discover additional costs during their visit. That’s not how we want to start our relationship, and it’s not how we work.

The fact is, every resident has different needs, and we don’t want to give you one price online, then another when you tour the community. So…

Once we assess your loved one’s specific needs, you’ll receive clear monthly pricing that includes:

  • Base apartment fee (varies by size and type)
  • Personalized care services based on individual needs
  • Daily meals, light housekeeping, laundry, and a full calendar of social activities

Three Ways to Take Your Next Step

We’ve done our best to paint a picture of this community, but words can’t give you the feeling of what it’s like to live here. We can’t give you the peaceful feeling of being near the woods or the smell of the nearby water. The best way to know if a community is the right choice for you is to experience its true spirit in person.

Since residents consider the quality of meals one of the most important services we offer, we invite you to join us for a meal (on us) and experience the fare yourself.
