Kathryn McCamant, President of CoHousing Partners, the developer of the project welcomed guests. McCamant, also an architect and author spoke about how special this cohousing project is for her, “I know that in creating a neighborhood where people will walk to shopping, bike to the farmers market and into downtown, that we are moving toward a more sustainable lifestyle where we will use less of the earth’s precious resources.”

Wolf Creek Village also represents a first for California with two cohousing communities located next-door to one another. Wolf Creek Commons (32-units) is an intergenerational community, a mix of young families, singles, and people middle-aged on up. The second, Wolf Creek Lodge (30-units) has been designed for active adults, aged fifty and older. The focus of this community is for active adults living life to the fullest. The development also includes (8) single-family lots.
