Rowley Masonic Community

Remember the magic of the neighborhood where you raised your kids? The most desirable neighborhoods surround you with friends, family and activity when you feel like being social and privacy when you want to relax. Our Cottage Homes and Apartments give you access to all of these advantages, plus maintenance-free living and health care if ever needed. And, coming soon, a Main Street, to create a central gathering place for our community. It could be yours, too. Inspired by the pleasures of living in a small town, our Main Street area has plenty of spaces for families to gather, friends to catch up on news, and neighbors to become better acquainted. Plans include a coffee shop, spa and salon, theater area and spaces for performances and cultural events. The convenience of our community will make it easy for you discover a favorite gathering place or invite friends to your Cottage Home or Apartment. Visit our Cottage Homes if you’d like a one- or two-bedroom floor plan with a backyard and detached garage. Like our Apartments, these independent living Cottage Homes are monitored with 24-hour emergency response and give you priority admission to greater levels of care if needed. On 36 acres of land at the eastern edge of Perry, Herman L. Rowley founded our community in 1955 with a vision of making life better for his Masonic brothers and their families. We’ve been able to build upon this simple but sustainable mission, staying true to our founder’s principles of camaraderie and caring for others. Today, Rowley Masonic Community is a thriving retirement community open to everyone. Dedicated to meeting the individual desires and needs of seniors in Iowa, we’re expanding to offer a full continuum of care including new residences, gathering spaces and innovative choices in health care.
