Welcome to The Overlook—a stunning, 450-acre Continuing Care Retirement Community (or CCRC) in Charlton, MA. Settled in the New England countryside, our lively community is a place of inspiration and natural beauty where you can create your own daily adventure. Residents connect with nature in this scenic setting, while staying close to everything the cities of Boston, Providence, Worcester and Hartford have to offer. The beautiful views create the perfect backdrop for many activities, including plein air painting, long walks along the trail, bird watching, and cross-country skiing in the winter.
So much to do in the great outdoors
Connecting with nature is an important part of any fulfilling lifestyle. At The Overlook, residents find peace in outdoor activities like cross-country skiing along our trails, playing tennis, and taking their furry friends to the dog park. Growing vegetables or tending flowers in the community garden is a particularly popular activity among residents because there’s nothing quite as rewarding as getting your hands in the earth and growing something from nothing.
Delicious dining options
As a resident of The Overlook, you’ll have many dining options, both casual and elegant. Grab a quick bite to eat at Tucker’s Café, or pick up a meal to take home. If you’re in the mood to indulge in a formal dining experience, stop by the Acacia dining room, or if you prefer, soak up the sun as you enjoy al fresco dining on the patio. Our menus offer seasonal selections, often with fruits and vegetables from our very own gardens here on campus.
Fuel your passions with community amenities
No matter your passions, The Overlook has amenities to pique your interest. If exercising is high on your list of daily activities, you’ll fit right in at our health and fitness club. Our fitness club amenities include an impressive, heated indoor swimming pool for laps year-round, and a spacious gym featuring a wide selection of exercise equipment. Stay on track to meet your fitness goals, even if the weather outside is unpleasant. The club also offers memberships to those in the public aged 55+, making it a popular spot in the larger community.
Our other impressive community amenities include a woodworking shop, a 280-seat performing arts center, a game room, an art room, a computer communications center, among others. At The Overlook, you’ll have daily opportunities to nurture your creativity, let out your competitive side, or learn something new.
Nurture your social side
The wide variety of events, activities and clubs at The Overlook weave together our tight-knit community. Whether you’re stopping to chat with a neighbor along the trail or filling your calendar with planned events, there’s always an opportunity to feed relationships and cultivate new ones. You’ll have the chance to enjoy musical performances, such as concerts in the courtyard, active clubs like the woodworking and gardening club, and social clubs and events, such as the Brew Crew and chorus.
However you choose to create your own adventure, the possibilities at The Overlook are limitless. For more information about life at The Overlook, give us a call at 866-753-5249, or visit us online to request a free information kit. We look forward to hearing from you!
