Room to Grow
Senior independent living at Casa is ever-evolving to best serve the growth and well-being of our residents. First, we free your time with a maintenance-free retirement lifestyle and delicious chef-prepared meals available every day. And living at a Life Plan Community eases any stress about the future. More free time and fewer worries mean senior living residents have more opportunities to pursue interests, enjoy loved ones, and explore more of the Rancho Bernardo area.
“Why should retirement slow us down?”
– Pat G., resident
Our diverse, resident-driven activities — including woodworking in our state-of-the-art woodworking shop, crafting and creating in our arts and crafts studio, and staying fit with friends in our fully equipped fitness center — and interesting committees and clubs keep every day at Casa fresh. You can be as active and involved as you choose to be. Within this vibrant retirement lifestyle, you can try new activities or revisit long-held passions.
Sitting just beside a scenic nature preserve and overlooking Lake Hodges, Casa offers the ideal independent living experience for nature lovers. Join friends and neighbors for scenic hikes or simply enjoy the panoramic views from your patio or balcony. It’s a perfect mix of nature and city life all in one place.
A Smart Choice for the Future
You’re still active, but if your health needs change, Type A and Type C contract options at our Life Plan Community, combined with our highly rated Health Center, provide you with invaluable peace of mind for the future. Independent senior living residents have access to higher levels of care within Casa, so if assisted living, rehabilitation, skilled nursing or memory care are ever needed, we’re here for you.
At Casa de las Campanas, you can choose which Life Plan (also known as a Continuing Care Plan contract) fits your preference and financial situation. Our residency counselors are here to help and are happy to talk through the options and differences in Type A and Type C contracts.

Senior Living FAQs
What is independent living?
Independent living is designed for older adults who want freedom from many responsibilities of homeownership while staying active, engaged and independent. It offers private residences, community amenities, dining, wellness opportunities, social programming and services that make daily life easier.
At Casa de las Campanas, independent living gives residents the flexibility to enjoy their own routines while staying connected to neighbors, activities and the broader San Diego lifestyle.
Why choose independent living if I can stay in my home?
Staying in your home may feel familiar, but it can also become isolating, expensive or physically demanding over time. Independent living can reduce the stress of home maintenance while adding more opportunities for friendship, activity and convenience.
Residents can enjoy chef-prepared meals, housekeeping, social opportunities and 24-hour staff presence while continuing to live life on their own terms.
Why should seniors choose a Type A Life Plan Community?
A Type A Life Plan Community offers both lifestyle and long-term planning value. Residents can enjoy independent living now while knowing that assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing care and rehabilitation are available on campus if they are ever needed.
For many families, this creates peace of mind because future care decisions are not left to chance during an emergency.
Why choose a not-for-profit community like Casa?
As a not-for-profit organization, Casa is guided by its mission, values and long-term responsibility to residents. Surplus revenues are reinvested into the community rather than distributed to owners or shareholders.
This focus helps support stability, improvement and a resident-centered approach to senior living in San Diego.
Why would I choose senior independent living if I can stay in my home instead?
For seniors tired of living alone, an independent living community offers social connection and meaningful activities. For people who don’t want to cook every day, communities like Casa offer delicious chef-prepared meals in restaurant-style settings. And for people whose families worry about their safety, independent living has staff on-site 24 hours a day. Read our blog to learn more about why independent living may be the best option for you or what the differences are between independent living and assisted living.
If I have long-term care insurance, should I still consider moving into a Life Plan Community?
Yes. Long-term care insurance can be valuable, but policies vary and benefits may be limited. A Life Plan Community offers a more comprehensive future care plan, while long-term care insurance may help offset certain costs depending on the policy.
Residents should review their coverage carefully and speak with their insurance provider to understand how benefits may apply.
