Message from our Admin

It’s so hard to know when and where your loved one will be safest and happiest—how to support their needs without taking away independence or dignity. I’ve faced this with my own family, and I understand how emotional the decision can be. That’s why I’m proud to have served as Administrator here for the past 10 years. I’m here to help guide families through this process with care, compassion, and honest answers. Our community is warm and cozy, nestled in a beautiful valley along the Tilton River, with wonderful residents and friendly staff who truly care. It’s a special place to call home.

Everyone at Heritage House has been loving, accommodating and great with.our grandma. They are happy to see us when we come to visit and they have become like family.

Nora Allen

It is with great gratitude and thankfulness that I commend the entire staff of Heritage House in Morton. During my father’s 2 1/2 year stay they treated him like a true member of the family, enhancing his final years. They established personal bonds with him so he truly felt like it was a second home and routinely told me how much he enjoyed living there.

The entire staff is outstanding, from those preparing meals in the kitchen, to the maintenance team always working to keep things running smoothly. Tammi, Randi, and Terrie are a great team setting a caring example to others as well as going the extra mile to celebrate special occasions throughout the year, very often engaging families. Others in the staff who established a meaningful connection with my father and really made his time more enjoyable were Lynn, Amanda and Dylan. During his final days Konnie showed extreme care not only to my father by making him comfortable but also to my siblings and myself during those long nights by his side. We cannot thank you enough for the caring and protective environment you provided.

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

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.
