My dad was in the care of Buffalo Crossings from [date removed] until he passed away in [date removed]. I could not have asked for better care for him.

The facility is lovely and the staff super friendly and helpful. I rest well knowing my parents are safe and well cared for. My parents, however, are actively seeking another facility mostly due to the quality of the food and lack of a pool. We knew there was no pool but were told they would have access to any of the pools in The Villages. This turned out to be false. There are a limited number of pool passes available. Had we been aware of how that worked, they would have chosen another facility.

Mom was so very happy there. She wished she had moved there sooner. The facility is clean yet comfortable. Not sterile. It has a very home like atmosphere. The staff is phenomenal!!! [name removed] was a God send. She guided me and helped my Mom with the most difficult decision of her senior life. Everyone from the housekeepers, to the activities directors, the nurses, the Cafe' staff and administrators made Mom feel not only "at home", but they made her feel needed. That was huge! My favorite thing about the way they treated Mom was that they treated her as the adult she was. They were so respectful. Never did the baby talk thing. That meant a lot. All in all this is a fabulous place! My Mom's best friend has already decided that she's moving there when her time comes. I told my best friend (we're 55) that we need to go now...no cooking, no cleaning, laundry service available and we can come and go as we please all the while living like queens.

My loved one is currently a resident at Buffalo Crossings Assisted Living Community and most everything has been great so far. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The care services, food and value for cost are good. I'm very happy with Buffalo Crossings Assisted Living Community and would recommend them to others.

My mother is very particular about places she has stayed. As she ages, we needed a place for her to stay when we were out of town, or just needed a break. She was well cared for, enjoyed the food, and had her hair done. She even commented that the hair stylist was better than her regular one. We will be seeking permanent placement there soon.

Mom has blossomed into a people person. She is fully engaged in the place and activities. She has a group of 4 lady friends that hang out and eat together. Great facility and staff.

They went through a lot of personnel changes in the time since Sept. 2022. The CNAs who work with the residents, were largely not good. They were without nurses for 2 months. And importantly they got a new executive director. The Activities Director was a behind the scenes person, but not imaginative or enthusiastic.

Our family had an in person tour and our tour guide did not seem prepared at all, we only got to see a studio room and not other apartment sizes.
I toured this community and everything was great, except for the food. I noticed that they have a very large group who participate in Mahjong, so that's a good thing to know for some people. The rooms are a very good size. As far as the food, we had a meal during our tour. It was terrible. The shrimp and all of the sides were cold and didn't taste good. A longtime resident here told me that the meals are pretty consistently not great. Other than the food, everything else seemed really good.
The only complaint I have heard from my Aunt is about the care if a resident has been at the hospital and is brought back after hours. There are no staff to meet the resident and no staff checked on her for several days. I don't know if that is something they claim they do there or if my Aunt is expecting too much as her family is all out of state so she is alone for these situations. I guess a few other residents have expressed a similar feeling about that. Otherwise it appears to be a great place.

I toured a few communities with one being Buffalo Crossings. I had a good tour, everyone was very nice. The facility seemed to be maintained very clean as well. It was just a larger place, and I was looking for a smaller more intimate facility.

The Buffalo Crossings was beautiful. The reason why we did not choose it was because it can get extremely expensive extremely fast. For a one bedroom with all of the care that they offer it can go up to $12,000 a month. It was out of our budget.

Everything is working out very well since my mother's move to this community. She made the choice, and she is very happy. I know she is safe, and in a good place. It is a lively community, with plenty of activities. She is very pleased with the meals. It isn't a cheap community, but if you have the assets, I would recommend this community.
