Willamette Lutheran Retirement Community has been serving seniors in the Salem/Keizer area since 1962. As a non-profit community, our surplus is put back into our campus to enhance the lives of those who live in our community. We require no buy-in,... just a month-to-month rental from, studios, to two-bedroom apartments, to our spacious two-bedroom cottages — we have something for everyone.

WLRC is situated on 42 private, peaceful, and carefully tended acres on a North Keizer bluff. In a park-like setting, where wildlife is still visible, we offer acres of beautifully landscaped grounds surrounded by fruit trees, berry bushes, grapevines, a variety of roses and other flowers for you to enjoy, and private gardens for your use, and everything is reachable by paved walking trails.

Yet, with all this privacy and peace, and the feeling of living in the country, we are just minutes from shopping, medical services, and all the amenities the city has to offer.
Your home is more than just a building. It’s music, paintings, your own familiar furniture and books. That’s why our spacious studio and one bedroom apartments, lodge homes and cottages come unfurnished. You make your new home cozy with your own belongings and way of life. Hang pictures. Display your favorite craft projects. Play with your pet. Invite your relatives and friends to spend the night. After all, this is YOUR home.
