Community Fishing Pond Creekside Senior Living
Creekside Senior Living in Bountiful, Utah includes a manmade pond stocked with about 120 trout. Residents and families alike enjoy fishing in the pond for a big catch, and fishing rods are even available to the public for those who are interested in fishing. The pond helps to boost community engagement. “It’s a good opportunity to invite the wider community to visit Creekside Se- nior Living,” said Adam Benton, principal at Stellar Senior Living, the Salt Lake City-based owner and operator of the property. Creekside Senior Living recently held a fishing derby and
about 400 people attended the event. Prize fish—10 albino trout and two very large trout—were added to the pond, and whoever caught those fish received a prize. Two ducks named Charlie and Millie, bred and raised by a 13-year-old as a service project, also call the pond home.
The pond also adds to the resort-style environment of the com-
munity. The curvilinear pond has two fountains and is a welcome addition to the outdoor amenities. Natural river rocks accent the pond’s shoreline and attractive fencing lines the walkways around the pond to ensure safety. The pond adjoins the outdoor seating and barbecue areas, as well as the putting green. “We built in a lot of outdoor features,” said Benton.
