Our Story
Like many meaningful ideas, Evergreen Cottages was born around a dinner table. Family and friends, many with backgrounds in healthcare and hospitality, were discussing the realities of aging—Alzheimer’s, memory care, assisted living, and what we would want for our parents or ourselves. The conversation evolved into a vision: a warm, dignified, and specialized community where seniors with Alzheimer’s or dementia could receive the best care possible.That night, Evergreen Cottages was conceived—a Memory Care and Assisted Living community created with heart, science, and deep compassion.
Our Founders
The founders of Evergreen Cottages bring together over 50 years of combined experience in medical care, senior wellness, memory care, assisted living, and business management. What sets us apart is not just the experience but the shared commitment to compassionate, thoughtful care rooted in both clinical excellence and hospitality.
What Makes Us Unique

How Senior Housing Differs from Single-Family Homes
Single-family homes are designed for nuclear families—not aging seniors with evolving needs. They lack the accessibility, safety, and support that specialized senior housing offers.
As mobility and cognitive abilities change, seniors need more than just a place to live—they need a supportive environment that adapts to their needs without compromising dignity or independence.
Specialized Memory Care Communities
Assisted living for seniors who need special care.
Designed for seniors with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia who need a secure setting and structured daily support. Care focuses on safety, personalized routines, and activities that encourage engagement and preserve cognitive function.
Key Features:
Secure environment with 24/7 supervision
Specialized staff trained in dementia care
Individualized care plans and structured activities
Therapeutic programs to support memory and quality of life
Smaller communities are simply better.
These facilities cater to residents with Alzheimer’s or other dementias. Certified caregivers provide specialized care in a home-like setting, helping residents live fully and comfortably.
