About

Top Assisted Living Facilities in The Ozarks

Rooted in Family Values

With four assisted living communities — including three dedicated memory care facilities — The Communities of Retirement at Century Pines, Inc. offers trusted, flexible care options tailored to the unique needs of each resident. Family-owned and operated for over 40 years, we have built a reputation for compassion, consistency, and quality care that families across Ozark, Springfield, Nixa, Republic, Branson, and surrounding areas continue to rely on.


Our communities consistently receive high reviews and heartfelt referrals, and many of our residents have been with us for years — a true testament to the relationships we've built. Rooted in family values and guided by a team that treats residents like their own, Century Pines is more than just a place to live — it’s a place to feel safe, respected, and truly at home

Our Story

Founded in 1980, our communities were created to offer an alternative to institutionalized senior care — a place where residents feel welcomed, supported, and truly connected to those around them.


Located on a peaceful 10-acre campus adjacent to a city park in Ozark, Missouri, our facilities blend the comforts of home with comprehensive services to meet residents’ evolving needs.


We are proudly licensed as Level II Assisted Living Communities —
the highest level of assisted living care permitted by the State of Missouri. This licensing allows us to support residents with more advanced needs while maintaining an assisted living environment, meaning residents can age in place without needing to transfer to a nursing home as their health needs change. Our communities provide 24/7 caregiving, full-time registered nurses, and on-site medical director access — ensuring personalized health support is always available.


Over the decades, we’ve grown not through advertising, but through the genuine trust we build with families — offering a quiet, enduring promise of care year after year.


To enrich the lives of seniors by providing compassionate, high-quality care in a warm, home-like environment.
