Why we like it

  • Excellent safety record

    A safety score of 9.6 out of 9.9 reflects a near-perfect inspection history — one of the safest communities in the region.

  • Intimate community size

    At 62 beds, Creekwood offers a smaller, more personal environment where staff can build genuine relationships with residents.

  • North Marin setting

    Novato offers a peaceful, small-town feel while remaining connected to the greater Bay Area. Marin County's natural beauty and mild climate are hard to beat.

  • Marin County quality of life

    Access to open space preserves, mild weather, and a community that values health and wellness — qualities that carry into the assisted living experience.
