A friend was recently admitted to Applegate Terrace. I've been able to visit her in the evenings 3 times now. Although I can't judge her overall care, due to my limited visits, I do know that every time I've been there she comments on how much she enjoys the food. It brings joy to my heart knowing that she's enjoying 3 nutritious meals a day.... Read more

I think it's been very good for my aunt. She's a very social person and having other people around has made her much more active. I'm not sure about the level of care, sometimes she says they're very good, and sometimes she thinks it could be better. I'm pretty sure they're short staffed and have a high turnaround just like everyone else, but everyone I've met has been very friendly. My aunt was very pleased with the activities director. She really seemed to do a lot, but she's no longer there. Overall I think it's a good place, but expensive. I don't know how the cost compares to other similar places, but I do know they're all expensive.

What we really like about Applegate Terrace is that it's clean and comfortable and the staff are very warm and welcoming. Based on the experience we have had so far we would recommend this community to other families.

Our tour at Applegate Terrace was nice. It was a clean and friendly place. The staff we encountered were nice. It would have been our second choice. We went with our first choice not because of anything wrong at Applegate Terrace - we just went with our gut feeling on what would be the right fit for our loved one.
We chose Applegate Terrace because of the price and we liked what we saw when we toured, we toured twice in 2 days. Sometimes it does seem a little unorganized, but if we bring up any issues or concerns it is taken care of immediately by the staff. I would recommend Applegate Terrace to others looking. Mom is happy and that is all that matters.

This is a good place to place your loved one. The community is clean and nice. My loved one likes it here. The staff are very helpful towards the family in answering our questions or addressing our concerns. The monthly fee is reasonable for what is in the area. Transportation, housekeeping, the room, laundry, three meals a day, snacks, beverages, and some care services are included in the monthly fee.

Intake of evaluating loved ones is poorly managed, nor do they provide the quality of services required. Billing is far behind. We're only now getting billed for services provided months ago (including unknown services we were unaware were being provided).

This is a very nice facility. It would not suit our needs though because of it's size. We are looking for a smaller community.

The Applegate Terrace Assisted Living was a very beautiful community. The staff was very kind and informative while taking me around the complex. The reason we did not choose this place is because my mother did not like the stairway.

I went and visited this community in the early morning just as the residents were eating breakfast. I could tell that they had put the best stuff out during my visit of this community but it made me wonder if this was an all the time thing or just because I was visiting them. The staff that I talked too were very friendly, extremely helpful and well educated on what they were talking about, but you do know what they say "Everybody has their spiel." I was able to talk to some of the residents there so that I kinda got a knowledge for what happens during their stays there.

I have no regrets living at the Applegate Terrace Assisted Living community. I have made new friends and am close to my husband as he lives close by. If necessary I'm also assisted with transportation for short trips.

A Place for Mom has scored Applegate Terrace 8.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
