Meet René Swar, our Director of Wellness

I have been in the fitness industry for 33 years and love helping others make fitness a part of their lifestyle. I get a lot of satisfaction watching people discover that they can move and challenge themselves in a way previously thought not possible. At Rose Villa we promote a culture of wellness across our campus incorporating the six dimensions of wellness; emotional, intellectual, physical, social, spiritual and vocational. My job is to develop and implement the RiverPoint Wellness programming for every fitness level and ability. I am a Certified Personal Trainer and teach group fitness classes to both residents and staff and enjoy working one-on-one with residents to achieve their fitness goals. I also coach RoseVilla’s Viking Dragon boat during the Rose Festival races.
Life at RoseVilla is driven by inspiration. We also give you ways to harness your own inspiration into the creative arts. From sewing to singing, from woodworking to writing, we give you plenty of ways to practice your hobbies—or explore new ones!

You may have heard us say that life here doesn’t look like other senior living communities. One of the ways that’s true is that we are doers by nature. We’ve attracted such a powerfully diverse group of humans over the years that when they get together, they often can’t help themselves but to improve the world around them.

Sometimes that looks like advocacy for social causes that our community cares about. From our internal DEIA Coordinating Committee to our Rose Villa Land Acknowledgement, we’re committed to acknowledging and addressing the need to invest in ALL of our communities. It’s all part of our commitment to champion life, both inside and outside of our own small slice of Oregon.

Sometimes that means developing new sustainability solutions, like the projects our RoseVilla Green Team undertakes. This resident-run group promotes policies and programs that address the impact of climate change and contribute to the institutional resilience of our community. Together, we’ve achieved a number of climate-friendly certifications, including our campus being Backyard Habitat Certified. We’re also recognized as a “Gold” Leader in Sustainability, a comprehensive program offered by Clackamas County’s Resource Conservation & Solid Waste department. And we were listed by Oregon Business as one of the 100 Best Green Workplaces in Oregon in 2023.

Build Your Best Day

What would it be like to cut yourself free from things like household chores, home maintenance, and endless errands that keep us from living life to the fullest? Let’s find out.

Select Your Activities

Your Best Day

Home Base for Your Best Day

At RoseVilla, you’re surrounded by interesting people and interesting things to do. But there’s more: We also offer an interesting place to do them. We’ve built some of the most distinctive housing options in all of senior living, right here in the heart of Oregon. From classic cottages to Zero-Energy homes, here’s a map that helps you find the right home base for your life in bloom.

Classic Cottages

Each of Rose Villa’s 103 Classic Cottages is unique. With no two floor plans the same, the Classic Cottages underpin our community’s identity and are a hallmark of our legacy as a neighborhood where like-minded individuals co-habitate in an environment that prizes indoor-outdoor living and a commitment to connectivity and neighborliness. Each of these vintage homes has been completely remodeled and, in some cases, expanded to meet current consumer desires. Boasting front and back gardens and patios, residents enjoy personal garden and gathering spaces as well as mature landscaping. These homes are also among the more affordable living option in the community, yet still mean access to the same services and amenities afforded to all residents.

Pocket Cottages

Lauded for its design, the original Pocket Neighborhood cottages debuted at the completion of the Phase 1 campus redevelopment. Forty-five homes, comprised of clusters of duplexes and five-plexes are smartly designed to take advantage of the sloping topography of the campus, and each features single-level living with a front door open to personal and shared garden spaces, and back door accessing a personal balcony or patio, perfect for BBQs, relaxing or entertaining friends and family. Connected by walking paths and shared spaces, the neighborhood encourages independence and fosters connections to neighbors. Inside, you’ll find vaulted ceilings, well-appointed kitchens with solid-surface countertops and open, airy floorplans.

Main Street Apartments

For those who desire to live at the center of it all, Main Street is the place to be! Completed in 2016 during the Phase 1 campus redevelopment, these 35 apartment homes feature floor-to-ceiling windows, views of Main Street, the Tranquility Garden, the Southwest Hills and the Willamette River. Residents of both North and South Main enjoy easy access to shared amentities including the Wellness Center, Performing Arts Center and restaurants in both buildings via stairs or elevator. If comfort, accessibility and views are important, Main Street is an ideal place to live your life.

North Pocket Cottages

An extension of our original, award-winning Pocket Neighborhood built in Phase 1 of our campus redevelopment, North Pocket’s 18 cottage homes are designed to maximize outdoor livability. With plans that range from 1,200 to 1,700 square feet, each home features covered outdoor decks or patios in a single-level living environment. Inside, you’ll delight in soaring ceilings, open floor plans and well-appointed kitchens. Personal garden spaces accent the common areas enjoyed by this neighborhood, which includes a Pavilion and other gathering places that encourage connection and friendship with neighbors.

Garden Grove

Nestled among mature trees and situated closest to our community garden, Garden Grove features 10 distinct homes with a decidedly northwest design aesthetic. Soaring ceilings, natural wood-framed casement windows and French doors that open to outdoor patios and balconies are just some of the unique features you’ll find in Garden Grove. Ground floor homes are flanked by personal garden spaces that can be individually landscaped to suit personal preferences for flora and fauna, while upper floor homes boast river and garden views from this serene and natural setting.

Creative Arts Building

The Creative Arts Building (CAB) is a place where imagination and originality culminate in a working artist space with loft living. On the ground level, surrounded by mature trees and charming greenspaces, is a haven for artists who prize creativity as an essential part of living the life of their own choosing. Equipped with personal and group studios, a classroom space, and a gallery for continuous rotating displays of art in all mediums, this flexible space is ideal space for creativity and imagination to flourish. Situated above the CAB are two 2-bedroom, 2-bath homes that feature urban design elements in beautiful living spaces that o er vaulted ceilings, personal library alcoves, well-appointed kitchens, gas fireplaces and outdoor balconies. Connection to the outdoors and reserved parking make this neighborhood a prime setting for all the posibilities life brings!

The Oaks

Rose Villa partnered with Portland, Oregon design-build firm Green Hammer to envision and build the Pacific Northwest’s first ever zero-energy senior living neighborhood. This neighborhood is ideal for people who seek a living option that matches their sustainable ideals, and for those who value the notion that how we live impacts our neighbors, community and the planet. Each residence is built to Passive House standards, a designation that signifies that the homes produce enough energy to offset their energy use over the course of a year. Four two-bedroom, two bath triplexes are centered around a shared central courtyard that features two native White Oak trees, which serve as the catalyst for the neighborhood’s identity. The solar panels, super-tight building envelope, triple-pane tilt-open windows, high energy-effcient appliances and mechanicals are unique to The Oaks.

Schroeder Lofts

Inspired by adaptive reuse urban street lofts found in the Pearl District of Portland, Oregon, the Schroeder Lofts are a continuation of Main Street and in the urban hub of the RoseVilla campus. The four-and-a-half-story loft apartment building is anchored at the north end by a child development center with apartments above street-level commons and rooftop amenities for residents. The ground level features a clinic, resident community room, and the Treasure House resale shop along a covered arcade that activates the pedestrian level of Schroeder Avenue. Schroeder Lofts feature a mix of home sizes ranging from 1-bedroom studios (+/- 988 SF) to premium 1,790 SF vista units, each of which will feature tall ceilings and large operable windows to complement the tall open living spaces with a flood of daylight. The lofts will feature covered 3-season decks off the dining room and living room. Parking for the loft residents will be provided underground (approximately 44 spaces).

Trillium Townhomes

Trillium Townhomes is the second Zero Energy neighborhood at RoseVilla, further emphasizing the community’s commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly design. Trillium consists of six industrial-inspired multifamily row homes—all sustainably designed for independent living. Each home opens to a permaculture-inspired courtyard of native plants and accessible pathways. The architectural aesthetic is inspired by the converted industrial buildings and row-homes in nearby Portland’s Pearl District, also located along the Willamette River. The exteriors are brick-clad with metal awnings above private outdoor balconies. Each interior boasts double-height, light-filled great rooms with an ‘urban loft’ feel. Bedrooms and bathrooms on both floors of the home provide optimal flexibility for aging in place.

Madrona Grove

At Madrona Grove licensed nurses and nursing assistants provide 24-hour care on both a long-term residential basis and for short-term recuperative stays. This is more than just a place where people receive nursing services. It is home. Reminiscent of a large, comfortable farmhouse, Madrona Grove features 32 individual rooms, each outfitted with its own private full bath and kitchenette. Residents are encouraged to furnish and decorate their room to their own tastes and preferences.

The Madrona Grove neighborhood itself is divided into two households of sixteen residents who live, dine, cook, and participate in activities together, yet also have the privacy of their own space. Residents of Madrona Grove have access to all campus amenities and activities in addition to those being held in Madrona Grove itself.

Independent living residents receive five days per calendar year in Madrona Grove, without additional charge, when the resident’s condition requires 24-hour care and the admission is ordered by a physician. This benefit renews every year.
