"I think peace of mind is a big attraction here. This has been
a great move for us!" - Shirley C.
"I'm never alone here - I have friends my own age right next
door. If I still lived in my own stand-alone house, I would
have to face every situation alone - big, little and in-
between," - Eunice S.
“It’s like someone picked me up and dropped me right into
paradise. Why didn’t I move here sooner!” Elaine S.
"Love the country view and being outdoors. Special new
friends and certain conveniences we did not have in our
older home." - Eunice
“Best thing I ever did!” - Vern
"Good place to live!" - Paul
"Very good - friendly people" - Terry
"This is it for us: easy living. When we drove to Alaska, we
never gave a second thought to Vennehjem, we knew
everything was taken care of. And when we returned, they
were all so happy to see us again. We have special
memories of all the great people who have come to make
Vennehjem their home! What a cross-section of people from
all over the country!" - Ken & Lorraine
"Even though we travel south for the winter, we are enjoying
Vennehjem as our summer home. We are meeting so many
friends, we feel right at home! You will too - come join us!" -
John
"This is ideal for us. Seeing is believing! We came to an
open house and decided right there that this was the way to
go. You move in and you're so comfortable - no worries! We
keep asking ourselves, 'Why didn't we move to Vennehjem
sooner?'” - Bud & Shirley
