"Living adjacent to Stone Mountain Park's wonderful golf course is perfect for us. We go out the private gate and are on the first tee in five minutes! We both enjoy the programs and activities at Park Springs, including going on cruises with other members. And when our kids and grandkids come over, we don't have to do all the things you do when you have a house, including cooking! "

"We came for an overnight visit and decided to stay! There's everything you might want to do, but if you prefer to sit around the house in your PJs and read, that's fine, too. With the wonderful dining, golfing, planned activities, and onsite healthcare, we like the security and value we've found here. "

"I enjoy staying busy with the Red Hat Society, the Stone Mountain Historic Society and other volunteer work in the area. With my husband gone, my friends at the Park and within the community are like an extended family for me. I looked at other retirement options, but experience taught me that having plenty to do and access to healthcare is important. Park Springs has everything I want and need."

"I was in the corporate entertainment business and now I'm directing and performing with an outstanding cast of Park Springs members. I challenge myself and the cast to do something a little more difficult each year. It really is a matter of pride – which is the theme of our next annual show. We're pretty darn good and we expect another sell-out crowd this year!"

"For years, Becky asked me to take dancing lessons with her. But somehow I was always too busy. After moving to Park Springs, we've been kicking up our heels with weekly lessons and a monthly dance. Living here, we have choices and we don't have to wait for the weekends to socialize. If we want to entertain, we don't have to prepare the meal or do the dishes! And if we want to go to the Symphony, we don't have to drive! "

“I've gone from nursing others to nurturing my inner artist.
My career as a nurse taught me a lot about health and wellness and the importance of exercise. At Park Springs, I enjoy aerobics and tai chi classes. I also take painting classes – something I'd always wanted to do!
There's always something new to experience around here.”

I told him I had both right here at Park Springs. The light menu options and regular workouts in the fitness center have really paid off.
We both love participating in the annual fitness challenge – the competition is pretty serious! We're committed to staying well and Park Springs helps us do it.”
