The Advantage Program at Arbor Acres

The time between choosing Arbor Acres and actually moving in can take years. The Advantage Program was built for that waiting period, giving individuals and couples in the Winston-Salem area a way to become off-campus residents now, with an entrance fee and a monthly fee, while continuing to live in their own home.

Amenities and Campus Access

Membership opens up several parts of campus life at once. On the wellness side, members have access to the fitness center and aquatics center, croquet courts, and indoor pickleball. On the creative and intellectual side, there is the art studio, the woodshop, beekeeping, and the ongoing speaker series, along with guided trips and tours that carry that same access beyond the property line. Members also have use of the dining venues and the resident portal, keeping them connected to campus scheduling and community news.

Every one of these is available as soon as membership begins.

Admission Requirements

Admission follows a defined process. Applicants complete a standard admission application, name the Advantage Program specifically, and indicate their preferred residence choice for when on-campus residency is wanted. Applicants must also be able to live safely and independently at home and meet the same physical and health requirements expected of independent living applicants at Arbor Acres.

That standard reflects who the program is built for: people who are healthy and independent now, and who want their plan for the future already in place.

The Value of Joining Early

Arbor Acres draws steady interest from families throughout the Winston-Salem area, and homes do not always open on a predictable timeline. The Advantage Program gives interested individuals and couples a way to experience the community now, while they wait for a home to become available.

Membership also includes access to Arbor Acres for Medicare or temporary Skilled Nursing care, as available. That access holds regardless of where a member stands in the process, giving families a documented plan for care needs that could arise before the move itself does.

The campus itself continues to grow. From new independent living homes to updated amenities, Arbor Acres is investing in what daily life here will look like for years to come. Joining the Advantage Program now means enjoying that growth as it happens.
