Situated on a historic site to the west of the Willamette River, Salemtowne is an established country club community in Salem, Oregon that welcomes adults 55 and better. The original farmhouse has even been converted into activity space on the clubhouse grounds. Salemtowne encourages residents to cultivate plants by providing an on-site greenhouse.

While many activities focus on the 9-hole executive golf course, residents also participate regularly in other special interest groups and are even invited to sharpen their wits during bi-annual mock trials at nearby Willamette University. Covenant-controlled Salemtowne is comprised of 460 single-family homes and condominiums. Located within three miles of the state capital, this very well-organized community combines the scenic charm of Willamette Valley with city center convenience.

Residents of this 55 and better community also have use of a fitness center, billiards room, craft room, and woodworking shop with lapidary addition. The century old farmhouse which was part of the original orchard functions now as a lending library. Salemtowne has an auditorium called the Towne Hall with a stage, piano, and A/V equipment. The Towne Hall converts easily from multi-purpose room for meetings and parties, to a pickleball court and an exercise area.

In addition to daily golf, the scenic 9-hole executive course with clubhouse, putting green, and practice areas hosts special communal activities for the ladies' and men's golf clubs. These include golf scrambles, cookouts, monthly luncheons, and holiday tournaments. Another unique feature of this community is the greenhouse where home owners can cultivate their plants and store them for the winter. A heated pool, a patio and grilling area, and free RV/boat and vehicle storage complete the amenities.

We recently moved to Salemtowne and so far we just love it. We have found the neighbors to be very friendly and helpful. There are many activities. I have been welcomed wherever I have gone. There is always something going on. We have a lovely view of the golf course but haven't played as of yet. still busy getting the house together. I am sure we are going to love living here!

Wonderful sense of community, lots of activities. Just be absolutely sure your grandchildren would never, in any circumstance, need to live with you or visit more than 45 days a year - or you will have to pay a $45 daily fine or sell your home.
