“It was providential that we came here to Avalon. Carolyn and I believe it is the best decision we have ever made. Because even though
we moved here from rural Kentucky we had no idea how much it was going to mean to us once we got here. The library, the manor house and
the 100 year old pine grove, the river … it’s just a perfect setting for retirement. The community has grown now into a maturity where
everyone seems to be 98 if not 99% happy. It’s just a great place to live.”

Community Life
Men’s pancake breakfasts, ladies’ luncheons, Kentucky Derby parties, men’s poker, Avalon’s book club, lecture series such as History with a Twist, flu shot clinics, wine & cheese receptions, exercise equipment use, pub night, games (from the full size pool table to Scrabble), line dancing, Friday dining, movie nights on the big screen TV …. a short list of the host of ongoing activities that abound at the Manor House for each Avalon Village resident. The Activities Committee membership comprises Avalon residents themselves, who create activities and programs that they know will be welcomed and enjoyed by participants.
Additionally, the Manor House is easily reserved by residents for their own private gatherings. Because of its elegance and beautiful setting, the Manor House is the perfect setting for family reunions, bridge parties, weddings, and celebrations of all kinds, when the occasion calls for that certain quality that only the Manor House can deliver.
Public events are held at the Manor House as well. At a recent quilt exhibit, 200 handcrafted quilts were put on display for 300 visitors to view and enjoy. The grand foyer, living room, Equestrian room, dining room, and upper living room areas became exhibit space, providing unique galleries for the fine exhibit.
Walking routes that extend over a mile connect the Manor House to the Penobscot River banks, the tall pines, the Edythe L. Dyer Community Library, and the Village neighborhood. The trails are ideal for taking favorite canine friends for daily walks. An Avalon pooch is a happy pooch, indeed! Whether one has the motivation of walking the dog, bird watching or otherwise enjoying the abundance of treasures from Mother Nature’s cornucopia, the beautiful trails provide plenty of reasons to get outside and enjoy the 60 acre site at Avalon Village at any time of year.
