Ocotillo Place, a Vineyard Park community, offers independent living, assisted living, memory care and respite care in Scottsdale, Arizona. Studio and one-bedroom apartments provide comfortable, accessible living, while nearby destinations like Old Town Scottsdale, Scottsdale Fashion Square, the Scottsdale Public Library and Scottsdale Stadium make it easy experience the vibrant neighborhood.
One of the first things you’ll notice is the consistency of the team. Many caregivers have been part of the community for a decade or more. A longtime housekeeper has been a familiar part of daily life for more than 20 years, and the chef has spent years getting to know residents and the meals they enjoy most. Those lasting relationships create a sense of familiarity that’s reflected in the care, the atmosphere and the connections shared throughout the community.
With trusted healthcare just across the street and a team that has cared for this community for many years, Ocotillo Place offers the kind of continuity and reassurance that families value.

The Ocotillo Place Experience
Spaces With Personality
Ocotillo Place has more going on inside than many communities its size. The large dining room anchors daily social life. The sunroom gives you somewhere bright to spend a morning. The bingo hall and activity center draw a crowd several times a week. The game room, library and cozy TV room give you options depending on what kind of afternoon you’re looking for. The banquet room serves as both a gathering space for larger events and home to the resident store. The beauty salon keeps personal routines close to home. The community is also pet friendly so your companion can continue to be a part of your daily life.
A Calendar That Gets Out
The activity calendar at Ocotillo Place moves between what’s happening inside the community and what’s happening in one of Scottsdale’s most interesting neighborhoods. Inside, Taco Tuesday, Fish Fry Friday, Happy Hour Socials, Donuts and Coffee with the Team, daily exercise classes, musical events and birthday parties make every day interesting. Outside, the outings calendar takes full advantage of the location. Spring Training at Scottsdale Stadium is one of the highlights of the year. Casino Arizona trips, holiday light tours, lunch at Old Town restaurants, visits to OdySea Aquarium, the IMAX Theatre, Arizona Mills Mall, local golf parks and regular grocery shopping trips are just some of what you’ll find on the community schedule.
Dining Variety
The culinary program at Ocotillo Place runs on a six-week menu cycle that keeps variety built into every week. Homemade soups, homemade desserts and special diet accommodations are all standard.
