Cedar Crest is an expansive, gated 62+ senior living campus located in Pompton Plains in Morris County. The community features Mountainview Gardens, which provides 92 state-licensed assisted living beds alongside the larger campus neighborhoods. Climate-controlled, glass-enclosed walkways connect residential buildings directly to clubhouses, dining venues, and social spaces, letting residents move around comfortably regardless of the weather outside. Well-tended walking paths, open courtyards, and landscaped gardens surround the buildings.
Living spaces range from one-bedroom layouts to larger two-bedroom residences. Standard homes feature modern layouts with full kitchens, including dishwashers, microwaves, and garbage disposals, as well as an in-unit washer and dryer. Bathrooms offer safety-focused elements such as wide doorways, walk-in showers, and grab bars. Dedicated maintenance crews take care of all regular repairs and upkeep inside and outside the home.
Dining options on campus operate much like a small town with seven distinct venues. Residents can stop by Belmont Beans for morning coffee, enjoy casual lunches at Seasons Grill Bistro or Oak Room Pizza, and have dinner at full-service spots like the Fireside Grill and Pub or Overlook Restaurant. Flexible monthly dining plans give residents the choice between daily meal accounts or smaller packages to fit their personal cooking routines. Menus rotate frequently, and nutritional details are made available for those managing specific health needs.
Daily life revolves around an active calendar led by community members and staff. Residents have access to an all-season indoor pool, fitness centers, a creative arts studio, a performing arts center, and courts for shuffleboard and pickleball. Other campus perks include an on-site branch of Lakeland Bank, an interfaith chapel, a salon, and scheduled shuttle transportation to regional shopping centers. An on-site medical center and pharmacy make routine checkups and prescription pickups straightforward.
The setting in Pompton Plains puts residents close to neighboring towns like Wayne while keeping local shopping and everyday services close at hand. Mountainview Gardens provides a supportive setting for individuals who need daily personal care or medication monitoring while staying connected to the larger village. Moving support services, including packing assistance and downsizing planning, help streamline the transition to campus life.
