The Eastern Star Masonic Home has a rich history of caring for seniors that dates back to the early 1900s. As the rolex datejust replica first full-service retirement community to be associated with the Order of the Eastern Star, we have proudly maintained the values and beliefs of the fraternal organization to help provide the very best services and an exceptional lifestyle for our residents.

First established to serve aging members of the Order, the Masons, and their children, the Home has since expanded to offer a complete continuum of seven levels of care to any seniors wishing to live here (although preference of availability is still given to active members of the Order).
