Planning For Your Next Chapter

MAKING STRIDES AS A YOUNG RETIREMENT COMMUNITY
Since opening in 2019, the community has welcomed over 500 new residents who call Reata Glen home. From expansive penthouses with sweeping views of rolling hills and single story villas to perfectly quaint one bedroom homes, this 480 home development has something for every taste. Each home is tailor-made to fit the lives of empty nesting baby boomers who want to enjoy life without the burden of home maintenance. “I went to every senior community in South Orange County to compare when I was looking to make a move,” says resident Kathy Allen, who chose to call Reata Glen home in 2019. “I’m pretty athletic and outgoing, and I wanted socialization. Reata Glen is the future of how my generation acts – we aren’t sitting at home alone feeling sorry for ourselves – we want to be active, healthy and going places. I see Reata Glen as a hybrid between a university, cruise ship and country club.” 

Without the burdens of home maintenance and cooking every day, Kathy enjoys the multiple dining venues at Reata Glen; she now has the freedom and time to get involved in what she really cares about. 

PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES, AMENITIES AND ACTIVITIES STAND OUT 
“You could be busier here than you’ve ever been in your life,” Kathy says with a smile. “More than I ever had been before.” With a fitness center, indoor pool, pickleball and tennis courts, woodshop, and activity rooms for educational, fine arts and fun classes, residents’ calendars are often full. “They go full bore for parties and events here, and there’s excellent food, too,” notes Katheryn. “I also walk a lot, go to the gym for a class called Crash Cardio and also write for the monthly newsletter.” It’s not just enjoying the activities and amenities on the Reata Glen campus, it’s the people you experience them with. “In the beginning, I didn’t know anyone,” Kathy says. “Now, it’s like being part of an extended family. I love being surrounded by people and friends and not having that alone feeling.” 

IMAGINE YOUR IDEAL RETIREMENT COMMUNITY… 
A gated neighborhood of single-story homes, condos, and apartments with a variety of convenient on-site amenities, services, and an adjacent health care center with long-term care services, should a future need arise. This is just how residents describe Reata Glen, Rancho Mission Viejo’s newest retirement community. Situated in a secluded, yet convenient Orange County location, beautiful rolling hills provide a stunning backdrop to each new day. It’s no wonder why readers of The Orange County Register voted Reata Glen the #1 retirement community in Orange County. 

INTANGIBLES AND CULTURE MAKE THE DIFFERENCE 
“As much as I love my coworkers, I love residents more,” says Karter Farris, who started as a dining server at Reata Glen, then transitioned to EMT safety officer after schooling. “To win Best in Orange County makes me very proud.” Karter’s team oversees security at the community, and she often wears many hats to serve residents’ needs. She’s a resident favorite, and some have labeled her as the happiest, bubbliest person they know. “The residents always make me smile,” Karter says. “Even if I come in and I’m not in the greatest mood, they say one thing and it brightens my day up, and I forget why I was bummed.” Recognized as a Great Place to Work by the Great Place to Work® Institute, Karter says the variety of job opportunities and the bonds with residents make it a fabulous place to start or continue a career. “There’s a spirit here – we care for each other,” Kathy says. “It is a community, and you feel connected.” Residents say they also feel safe – even during the challenging times recently. “Over and over, we’ve said we can’t imagine being anywhere but here when the pandemic hit,” Katheryn adds. “Management did an excellent job, we had peace of mind, and they made it interesting and fun with little surprises and creativity.” 

THE REATA GLEN EXPERIENCE 
It’s no coincidence the word Reata translates to a lasso or loop of rope – a fitting representation of the bonds that connect those who live and work at Reata Glen to each other. “Don’t wait – make the jump if you’re considering senior living and Reata Glen,” Kathy says. “Enjoy the fun – it’s a way of life that’s amazing. People thrive here.” Receive an exclusive invitation to attend a lunch presentation and learn about the Reata Glen experience. You can even meet Katheryn, Kathy or Karter firsthand.
