My wife, Evelyn, and I moved from the Chicago area to the San Diego area in 2022, and we then lived for almost 20 years in a condo in Coronado. While we enjoyed immensely being in Coronado, we realized that we were aging and would eventually benefit by being settled into a community where a variety of senior services would be readily available to us. We spent almost four years looking for such an environment throughout San Diego County. When we eventually visited Fredericka Manor, we were immediately struck with the features it offers that no other facility we had visited exhibited. It provides a wide variety of living accommodations in individual cottages set amid beautifully-landscaped gardens, surrounded by majestic trees. Many of these trees are over 100 years old. Also available are apartments that are located in a handsome high-rise building that further houses the dining room, a library, meeting rooms, and other facilities. The residential streets in this complex are quiet and sheltered from through traffic. An award-winning lagoon, with its surrounding garden, offers one of several venues for pleasant walks within the Fredericka Manor campus. The outside neighborhood is pleasant, safe, and conducive to walking as well. The entire community is situated in an area of South Bay, with easy access to freeways, two nearby, large regional shopping malls, banks, numerous conveniently-located shops and businesses, a wide variety of restaurants and coffee shops, physicians and dentists, two nearby major hospitals, and more. No other senior facility of its type, offering independent living, assisted living, and memory care came even close to “checking this many boxes” for us. After moving here, we found the staff to be competent, caring, and personable. The meals are nutritious and excellent. The residents we have met are pleasant, unpretentious, and very interesting and accomplished individuals who hail from many different professions and regions of the United States. It is truly a comfortable, cosmopolitan, and stimulating environment in which to live. We have been living in a spacious two-bedroom, two-bath cottage, with our own attached carport and storage rooms, for over two years now, and we are very happy with the choice we made to move to Fredericka Manor.
Fredrika has a hospitality committee that welcomes new residents and invites them for a dining room experience to meet residents and learn about dining options . The food is excellent We have beautiful grounds and wonderful cottages to live in.
I have lived in Fredericka Manor for 3 years now and really enjoy all the activities. I love the variety of exercise classes and now we have a walking group. I also thoroughly enjoy all the entertainment that is hired for us each month, from music groups, singing, etc. Most of all the staff is very friendly, helpful, and I feel safe.
Frederica Manor has surpassed my expectations of what it would be like to live in a retirement community. Three years ago my husband and I moved to Fredericka Manor 3 days after the official Covid shut down. Because we were walking our dog, several other dog owners greeted us and welcomed us to the community. Walking the campus is a joy. The campus and the pond provide special beauty into my life. I see something new every day. . Once the shut down was over we were encouraged to sit at the newcomer table in the dining room where we met other newcomers. Immediately we were impressed with how friendly everyone was, and continue to be. Two years ago I had a fall that caused a fracture and resulted in my being in the health care center for 5 weeks. I had regular visitors and cheerleaders during that time and after I returned home. When my husband had a fatal stroke a few months ago, once again the support I received from the community was over whelming and humbling. One can never be bored at Fredericka. There are numerous activities every day from which residents can choose, or not. Sitting at the beautiful pond is an wonderful way to relax and enjoy nature. For an outing, a walk down 3rd Avenue to check out the various stores and/or treat yourself to a meal, is another option. Having maintenance people available for same day repairs and a person to clean your residence is wonderful. All of the staff is helpful and friendly. They want you to be happy here. Deciding to move to Fredericka Manor was once of the best decisions John and I made. Peggy Holl
