Comfort and Convenience
The place you want to be deserves your personal thought and reflection, and the quality of the home you’ll occupy is an important part of that decision. So too are the convenience and comforts you’ll enjoy.
The bungalows of Pine Meadows represent some of the most thoughtful construction and finest quality you’ll find in the industry. Energy efficient and built to the highest standard, each home is nestled on its own landscaped lot. Located on 65 acres, this picturesque community with mature trees and rolling trails is made even prettier by its proximity to Belwood Lake.
Our commitment to care and maintenance ensures it will always remain as attractive. From grass-cutting in the common areas to snow removal on roads, driveways and parking lots, we look after things so you don’t have to. It means you’ll have more time for the things you care for and want to pursue.

Management and Care
At the helm of this retirement living oasis, you will find Don Vallery, along with his family and staff. Together, they work to enhance and maintain the property’s beauty, with a transparent approach to costs. Don is a sixth generation resident of the Belwood area and, like his family before him, is a builder by trade. It’s this experience in construction that shapes the development and that made Pine Meadows what it is today – a high-standard approach to a lifestyle that exceeds expectations. Actively involved in the Centre Wellington community, Don has given back much. As Chair of the Economic Development Task Force, he’s contributed to the growth and development of the business community. Don was awarded Citizen of the Year by the Centre Wellington Chamber of Commerce in spring of 2021 for his many significant contributions. Don is also your neighbour who takes pride in making this your place to be.
