Here in the heart of Marietta, Georgia, our beautiful senior living community feels more like a Southern vacation retreat. It’s a place where every day brings a new opportunity to connect with friends, enjoy nature, and embrace the vibrant energy of summer. Whether that’s through a tranquil morning walk, a spirited group outing, or a cheerful gathering on the patio.

If you’re searching for the best retirement communities in Georgia, here’s why summer at Winnwood makes every moment feel like a getaway.

Nature, Beauty, and a Thriving Garden Club

Nothing says “summer escape” like being surrounded by fresh air, blooming flowers, and sunshine. At Winnwood, residents enjoy peaceful walking paths framed by award-winning landscaping, perfect for stretching your legs, enjoying conversation, or simply soaking in the day.

Our outdoor spaces are beautiful and alive with purpose. One standout is the Winnwood Garden Club, a proud and official member of The Garden Club of Georgia, Inc. This passionate group meets on the last Monday of every month and brings together residents who share a love for planting, cultivating, and beautifying the spaces around them. Whether you’re an experienced gardener or just curious about planting your first flower, there's a warm welcome waiting for you.

Outings and Adventures Just Around the Corner

Summer is the perfect time to explore, and Winnwood makes it easy. Located just a short stroll from Historic Marietta Square, residents can enjoy charming boutiques, art galleries, restaurants, and seasonal events — all within walking distance.

For bigger adventures, our activities team has you covered. From excursions to the Georgia Aquarium and Cascade Springs Nature Preserve to cheering on the Atlanta Braves or Atlanta Falcons, we plan outings that appeal to all interests and abilities. Just let us know what you love (sports, nature, art, or history?) and we’ll help you experience it.

This is what senior living in Marietta is all about: empowering you to keep living life on your terms with the right support and freedom to explore.

Stay in the Loop With a Tap

With so much going on, it’s nice to have everything right at your fingertips. That’s why Winnwood has its own resident mobile app, designed to keep both residents and families informed and connected.

From birthday celebrations and dining menus to outings and events, the app makes it easy to see what’s happening at a glance. It’s perfect for staying plugged in and planning your week. 

Summertime Is for Our Four-Legged Friends, Too

Winnwood isn’t just senior-friendly — it’s pet-friendly, too. Our WinnWOOF Dog Park gives residents a safe, welcoming space to walk, play, and socialize with their furry companions. Summer evenings are especially popular for dog walks around the property, where both pets and owners enjoy the cooler air and friendly conversations.

Entertain, Relax, and Soak It All In

There’s something special about summer gatherings: cool drinks, good friends, and laughter under the shade of a tree. At Winnwood, residents enjoy entertaining guests on their private patios, sharing meals, or simply relaxing outdoors with neighbors.

Our organized activities calendar keeps the season lively, with summer socials, themed events, and live entertainment all planned with fun and connection in mind. And thanks to our concierge and hospitality team, you’ll always know what’s coming up and who’s attending.
