Services & Amenities
Many conveniences and essential services are right here on site at Chateau St. Michael’s.
Common areas
Chateau has many places to get together with friends, family and neighbours. The coziest gathering place is the library room, with large screen TV. Larger events are often hosted in the spacious activity room, which hosts a variety of functions all year round.
In summer, Chateau’s 10 acres of outdoor spaces are ideal for gatherings, events and barbeques. The large screened-in patio is completely accessible and well-protected from wind and rain.
Entertainment, events and recreation
Chateau has a successful and active slate of recreational and social programs. Every day there is something interesting happening in the sunny, spacious activity room, from coffee parties and crafts to the adopt-a-grandparent program. Entertainment includes Mike’s Music three times a month and visiting singers from local schools.
Chateau comes alive every holiday season with in-house parties and celebrations. Family and special events include Christmas Dinner, Mother’s Day Tea and the Family Day BBQ.
About three times a month, Chateau also organizes outings to the mall, casino, museums and other attractions.
