Find Your Own Rhythm Here
Vitality Living Lake Forest sits along West State Road 46, just outside Sanford’s historic downtown, where brick-lined streets, Hollerbach’s Willow Tree Café, and the Lake Monroe waterfront are only minutes away. A front porch lined with rocking chairs greets you the same way Sanford’s own historic homes do—with an invitation to linger and watch the day roll by in true Old Florida style.
And that easy pace is only half the story. Step inside and the calendar runs morning to night: dancing to live piano music, games in the billiards lounge, movie nights that pack the house, and more. There’s always somewhere to be and something happening. Assisted Living and Memory Care share that same address, with a full calendar and a front porch both waiting, so your loved one can find exactly the kind of day they’re looking for.
Our Lifestyle Options
Lake Forest offers Assisted Living and Memory Care under one roof, so residents can stay in the community they love as their needs change.
Assisted Living at Lake Forest is built around living, with personal care woven in quietly wherever it is needed. A licensed nurse is on-site 24 hours a day; personal service plans are built around each resident; and on-site physical therapy and respite care are available when needed. Life doesn’t stop at the front door: residents fill the entertainment room for dancing and live piano music, hold their own at the billiards lounge, and claim their spot on the front porch most afternoons. Housekeeping, laundry, and linen service are handled weekly, so the calendar stays wide open for whatever is happening that day.
Vitality Living Memory Care at Lake Forest is a secure, specially designed neighborhood for residents with mild to severe cognitive impairment. Our team is trained to know each resident as an individual, building programs, care, and services around their preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all routine, and we stay close to families through the process, too. Residents have access to the same amenities and services as Assisted Living, and overnight safety is supported by Vitality’s award-winning AI technology, delivered in partnership with EyeWatch Live.

Every Day Runs Like a Cruise Itinerary
Lake Forest was built as one man’s gift to his mother, who loved cruises and wanted somewhere happy and tranquil to retire. That story shows up the moment you walk in: a grand staircase designed to feel like boarding a classic passenger ship, right down to the original home she lived in, still standing on the property today.
Life here runs on the same itinerary. Days start unhurried, with a seat on the front porch for rocking and people-watching, then pick up as the entertainment room fills for games and the billiards lounge sees steady use. Come evening, the grand piano plays the room out for dancing, the way a band would play on deck after dinner, and movie nights and game nights keep the house just as full. Come see for yourself what it feels like to live aboard.

How Community Living Transforms Lives
4 Stars
“We recently placed my mother at Vitality. She is in the memory care unit called the Manor. We could not be happier with our experience at Vitality… When my mother was living at home, she had started to become frustrated and overwhelmed… It has been a blessing for us because we are now able to visit our mother and truly enjoy her because she is happy again and we know that she is in a safe space.”
