Living at GreenTree has been the best thing that has happened to [name removed] and I since we retired. They have good food, excellent entertainment and the staff is wonderful. We love living here at GreenTree.
The staff are usually great and I'm sure not appreciated enough for all they do. Sometimes there is not enough staff though. There are several events offered, but some residents seem to get left out. The food has a good variety, but is questionable at times. Rolls or bread should be offered with most lunches and dinner's. Overall, it is a great place, just a few things that need adjusted.
