Who We Are

Two Distinct Options

We are proud to provide two distinct yet complementing options within our family of communities – Merrill Gardens and Truewood by Merrill.

At both Merrill Gardens and Truewood by Merrill, our focus is always on the people who live and work at our communities. You can see it in the people we hire. You can see it in the communities we create. You can see it in the ways we connect with your family.

As a family of communities, we believe that life should be all about the choices you can make and the things you can do. Our ability to help seniors live their own lives and make their own decisions is the key to happier, fuller lives.

Welcome To Our Family

As a fifth-generation family company with roots extending back to the 1890s, all of us know the importance of staying connected. To us, it is important that our residents and team members feel like they are a part of our family.

Our commitment comes from the deep roots of our family company. Our founder, Richard Dwight (R.D.) Merrill, came to the Pacific Northwest in the 1890s to establish timber holdings. He was an innovator, the first to practice sustainable forestry, and his tradition of attention and thoughtfulness eventually grew to include the business of caring for people.

Within our family of senior living communities, we are proud to offer a variety of options to meet different needs and lifestyles. From unique locations to varying care and service options, we are here for you.
