Cottonwood Creek

Cottonwood Creek is a 120-bed assisted-living community at 1245 East Murray Holladay Road in Salt Lake City, Utah, on the border between Holladay and Millcreek in central Salt Lake County. The east-side location puts the community within reach of Sugar House to the north, Murray to the west, and the broader east-bench Salt Lake corridor. Care staffing covers continuous shifts. Day-to-day support spans bathing, dressing, transferring, medication management, and meal coordination.

The community manages a wide range of clinical needs including ancillary services, diabetic care, high-acuity care, incontinence care, and memory-care support, which suggests a clinical-depth offering above what some smaller residential homes can sustain. Memory-care services are part of the scope alongside the broader assisted-living population. Day-to-day life centers on shared common rooms, the dining program, and the activity calendar.

Three meals come out of the on-site kitchen daily, with snacks accessible. Activity programming runs at the 120-resident scale, with social events, family gatherings, and east-side Salt Lake outings on a standing weekly cadence. Cats and dogs are accommodated in residents' private quarters, an unusual policy that lets long-time pet owners keep their animals through the placement. Cottonwood Creek operates as private-pay without Medicaid beds.

Pricing starts at $3,200 monthly, with the community average around $3,675 across care plans. Final cost depends on the resident's care plan and the prevailing rate sheet, walked through with your senior advisor. The Murray Holladay Road corridor sits on the east side of central Salt Lake County, with Intermountain Medical Center in Murray roughly 5 to 8 minutes west for routine and emergency clinical care.

St. Mark's Hospital reaches in about 8 to 10 minutes north for additional clinical options. Sugar House commercial blocks reach in 10 minutes north, with Holladay's smaller downtown corridor a few minutes east. The 1245 East block sits in established residential central Salt Lake with easy parking for visitors. The combination of pet-friendly housing in private quarters, the high-acuity-clinical-needs scope (diabetic care, memory care, incontinence care), and the central Salt Lake County location makes Cottonwood Creek a notable option for families wanting clinical depth alongside a pet-inclusive housing model.
