Holiday Maple Downs

Holiday Maple Downs, a rental community at 7220 East Genesee Street in Fayetteville, offers independent living as its single care level. It is built for older adults who want company and structure without giving up their own apartment. Holiday by Atria, the independent-living rental brand of Atria Senior Living, operates it, with scheduled events, recreation programs and landscaped grounds as part of daily life.

The rent rolls most household costs into a single payment. It covers the private apartment, chef-prepared meals 3 times a day, housekeeping and linen laundering, scheduled local transportation, building and grounds maintenance, standard utilities and a daily schedule of events. Staff swap out, wash and return bedding and towels every week, which takes a heavy chore off the list.

A stylist and barber see residents by appointment in the building, so haircuts do not require a ride across town. Apartment availability changes, and a specific unit is held only after a deposit is paid. That can matter when a decision has to be made in weeks rather than months. Weekly bedding and towel service and the on-site salon cut down on trips and chores for a new resident.

Rent does not include personal care or medication management, and phone, cable or internet may cost extra. Families supporting a parent with early memory changes should ask plainly how the community handles that in independent living. No apartment is held until a deposit is paid. Compare against other senior living in Fayetteville before deciding.
