About Green Acres Foundation – Garden View Lodge

At Green Acres Foundation, the belief that quality of life matters at every age shapes everything about how their communities are built and run. Garden View Lodge, located at 751 1 Ave S in Lethbridge, Alberta, brings that philosophy to life as a warm and supportive senior living community offering a genuine sense of home for residents across a range of care needs.

Living Options & Care Levels

If you are exploring care options for a parent or loved one, understanding what each level of support actually looks like day to day can make a big difference. Garden View Lodge offers three confirmed care types: Independent Living, Memory Care, and Retirement Home living, giving families a meaningful range of options depending on where a loved one is in their journey.

Independent Living is a great fit for seniors who are largely self-sufficient but are ready to let go of the responsibilities that come with maintaining a home. Your parent can enjoy their own private space while benefiting from the convenience of on-site services, social connection, and a maintenance-free lifestyle.

Retirement Home living offers a more supported experience for seniors who appreciate having additional help woven into their daily routine. Whether that means assistance with meals, housekeeping, or simply knowing that staff are always nearby, this level of care is designed to provide reassurance for both residents and their families.

For families navigating a diagnosis of dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, the Memory Care option at Garden View Lodge provides specialized support tailored to the unique needs of residents living with memory loss. Memory Care environments are designed to balance safety and structure with dignity and a sense of familiarity, helping residents feel settled and cared for in a thoughtful way. Knowing that trained staff are available around the clock can bring real peace of mind to families who have been managing care on their own.

What You’ll Love About Living Here

Garden View Lodge offers a thoughtfully arranged living environment where residents have access to a variety of spaces and services that support both comfort and connection. The beautiful gardens and grounds are a true highlight of the property, giving residents a peaceful setting to enjoy the outdoors, take a quiet walk, or simply sit and take in the surroundings. An outdoor terrace or patio extends the living space beyond four walls and provides a lovely spot to gather with friends or enjoy some fresh air.

Inside, comfortable common areas invite residents to relax, socialize, and feel at ease throughout the day. A private dining room adds a special touch for occasions when families want to visit and share a meal in a more intimate setting. For those who love to read or simply enjoy a quiet moment, the on-site library provides a welcoming retreat.

Day-to-day life is made easier through general housekeeping services and laundry or dry cleaning support, so residents can focus their energy on what they enjoy most. Two meals are provided each day, and snacks are available at any time, meaning residents never have to worry about going without. Organized excursions and outings bring variety and excitement to the weekly rhythm of life, offering opportunities to explore the local area and stay engaged with the broader community. Staff are present on-site at all times, providing a consistent layer of support and security that residents and families can count on.
