COMMUNITY LIVING IN CARLISLE

 

Thornwald Home residents can enjoy the tranquility of an adjacent 32-acre park with mall shopping just a ten minute walk away.

 

Transportation is available to nearby banking facilities and shopping areas. Churches of many denominations provide services and programs that are available to our residents.

 

Carlisle, the county seat, was established in 1750, along the banks of the Conodoguinet and Yellow Breeches Creeks.  Once a trading post located on The Great Road to the Potomac River, the Cumberland Valley now hosts the Pennsylvania Turnpike, providing easy access for visitors.  At the same time, covered bridges still cover the creeks here, leading visitors on a nostalgic tour of the beautiful countryside.

 

Craft shows, theatrical productions, and antiques and collectibles market offer residents and guests many opportunities to continue cultural interest.
