Fabulous Living for ages 55+
Rossmoor is a 55+ community located just minutes from downtown Walnut Creek but entirely peaceful compared to what’s just outside the gates. This gated, master-planned community offers a wonderful lifestyle for seniors in a beautiful setting. Situated in a valley surrounded by rolling hills, Rossmoor contains many well-appointed housing types, ranging from smaller condo co-ops to larger single-family homes to upscale apartment-style living at the Waterford.
In Rossmoor, locals enjoy many amenities and gorgeous modern facilities, their own farmers market, and an array of conveniences managed by the homeowners’ association. Because the community was designed for seniors, comfort and access are paramount: neighborhood shuttles, walking paths, pools, tennis courts, and a restaurant are onsite and readily available. If you have a hobby or an interest, chances are there is a club for you to join in Rossmoor — there is an astounding array of over 200 interest groups and organizations, including groups for birding, pilates, watercolor painting, woodworking, and much more.
As mentioned, Rossmoor is situated less than 10 minutes by car from downtown Walnut Creek and its sundry restaurants and storefronts. Within the Rossmoore grounds, check out Creekside Grill (modern American cuisine in a cozy setting with great views) and the Rossmoor Diner (classic diner fare with throwback charm). The Rossmoor Farmers Market operates from May to October and is the best place to get the freshest ingredients.
Rossmoor is built around two NCGA-rated golf courses, five clubhouses, eight tennis courts, a dog park, miles of hiking trails, and the state-of-the-art Tice Creek Fitness Center. The Dollar Ranch golf course is a standard 18-hole, par-72 ramble, and the Creekside course is roughly half the length at nine holes and a par of 36. Whether you golf socially, competitively, or both, you can join the Happy Hackers; Women’s 18-hole; Women’s 9-hole; or Men’s golf clubs.
Three community swimming pools are located throughout Rossmoor, and the main pool is covered and open year-round for classes and lap swimming.
