Canterfield of Kennesaw

Very nice accommodations. Amenities are nice.It would be nice if the bottom kitchen cupboards would have pull out shelves or drawers. Very few 85 year olds are inclined to get on their hands and knees to retrieve items. So unused kitchen space. It appears that Canterfield is saving dollars on food served in the dining room. Attention should be given to preparing healthy food for residents. More fruit, vegetables and Mediterranean diet options should be provided for the health of residents. Same menu for a week is boring and unappetizing.... Read more

About the facility Canterfield of Kennesaw

Canterfield of Kennesaw is proud to be the first and only senior living community in Kennesaw Georgia, with an established, supportive community for residents that require independent living, assisted living, and memory care services. We believe in cultivating a truly exceptional way of life that allows residents the dignity to design each day to their greatest desire. Our natural landscape is emboldened by rich, green landscaping, and a peaceful courtyard that provides residents and guests the opportunity to embrace the outdoors. Our concept for senior living was developed in the 1980’s by Winston Porter, whose social model of senior living was “to be cared for in a carefree environment.” Our community is designed in a hotel-like fashion that always feels like home and complements the dignity, safety, and quality of life to all residents. Contact an advisor at A Place for Mom, and let us know how we can care for you!

Our Community

Thank you!

My aunt lived at Canterfield when her dementia progressed so she could no longer live alone. I very much appreciate the care she received until she passed. I never worried about the care she received. Thank you for taking care of her and making it easier for both of us going through this difficult journey!

Wonderful!!!

My mom moved into Assisted Living in October 2019. She loved it! She kept her independence and loved all of the socializing provided at Canterfield, In July 2021 she was moved to Memory Care Unit, The staff was incredible! I never had to worry about her. If anything occurred, no matter how small,, I was notified. When I would visit, I would often find one of the caregivers hugging her or just spending time with her. The staff, from the facility director down to janitorial crew were always so kind and accommodating. If there was ever an issue, it was handled quickly. My mom passed away on New Years Eve 2022 and during her last few days, she was visited by numerous staff members and some of those staff members came to visit on their day off. The love that the Canterfield staff gave my mother and I will never be forgotten. Obviously I highly recommend Canterfield of Kennesaw.

Peace of Mind for Mom

It's a great, family friendly atmosphere. Everyone is very welcoming. They keep lots of activities planned. And it's a beautiful place. The apartment is easy to get around. The bedroom is large. The bathroom is super large, with a step-in shower. There's a walk-in closet and a beautiful balcony. One area for improvement is the dog area could have been larger and perhaps had artificial turf. It was near a water run-off area and could get kind of muddy. But it was a great place.

my wife and i have lived here for 3 years and have enjoyed every minute

MY WIFE HAD A BLOOD CLOT ON HER LUNG SO WE MOVED INTO ASSISTED LIVING WHERE SHE GOT GREAT SERVICE. THE CLOT DISAPPEARED SO WE MOVED INTO AN INDEPENDENT VILLA WHERE WE HAVE LIVED FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS. I WOULD RECCOMEND THIS FACILITY TO ANYONE NEEDING A SENIOR LIVING HOME. INDEPENDENT LIVING DINING IS SIT DOWN AND ORDER FROM A MENU WITH FOUR OR FIVE ENTREES AND APPITIZERS. PLUS THERE'S ALWAYS FOUR OR FIVE DESSERTS TO CHOOSE FROM THE OPTIONS.

I am a current resident who has resided in Canterfield's Independent Living residence areas for over one year. I have been surprised at how quickly Canterfield has become my home. The food is excellent, with menues that change weekly. The wait staff are professionals who have become extended family. We not only have a full service gym and saline pool, but in-house nurse practitioner and physical/occupational/ speech therapists are available. I would not hesitate to recommend Canterfield to my friends and family.

Enjoying Life

Canterfield is a wonderful place to live. Several years ago my now deceased husband moved into the memory care portion of the property and he was happy and well treated. In 2021 it became beneficial for my sister and me to sell my large house and relocate. Naturally, I thought of Canterfield;however, we visited numerous properties before making our chose to live in the independent portion of Canterfield. PS The food is delicious and the menus are varied!

Best Place for Dad

I would highly reccomend Canterfield of Kennesaw for your loved one. After visited a neighbor there a few years back, my Dad wanted to move in there. He was so lonely in his condo and longed for the companship of others and was impressed with the amount of activities available for the residents. We checked it our as throughly as we could and we are very happy that he was able to places here. The majority of the staff really care about the residents and that is most important criiteria for a wonderful facility. Dad is very happy here and we are very happy that such a wonderful facility is available for him.

Staffing seem to have issue to keeping staff around, high turnover rate. If can get this issue corrected, believe it will be much better. Overall would say that for what it is, it is not perfect but they certainly try their best to make it a great experience.

Perfect for My Parents

I think the most important thing is how supportive the staff are. The facility is not even half full yet, so my parents don't have as many friends yet, but the activities director is awesome. They have a really nice outdoor pool and a nice gym. The facility itself is perfect inside, but the location isn't great. The view is of a 24/7 daycare center behind their building, and it's not in a clan part of town, although I think the area is gradually starting to be cleaned up.

A Place that Truly Cares

The staff are very involved and great to work with. They had a welcome basket in my loved one's room when we were moving in. They were able to jump in and assist in doing my loved one's hair without requesting them to do it. My loved one is always well groomed and put together when visiting. The community keeps you updated on your loved one's care and wants you to be involved in the care if you want to. They offer support groups as well. They have lots of activities for the residents to choose from to participate in. The food is good and served hot.

Tour of Canterfield

Canterfield is a lovely facility. The tour was great and we appreciated being able to visit in person during covid. We actually know 2 people who are at this facility so it would have been a great choice, but it is a further location than we would have liked and it was more expensive.

Highly recommend

We chose Canterfield of Kennesaw because of the convenience to where I live and work and they provide proper care for her diabetes which she was not receiving at her previous facility. The room sizes here are a little smaller than what she had. They send out weekly newsletters to let us know about meals and activities they are providing for the upcoming week and any changes with covid protocols, we get them via email as well. I would definitely recommend to others looking.

Great Place

I moved my mother here after some issues with her medications from another facility. A Place For Mom helped me find this place. They have been great working with her doctor getting her medications (she is diabetic) back under control. She is happy at Canterfield and is making friends (she already had one here & didn't know, a lady from her church). I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Peace of Mind for Elder Care

We recently had to make the difficult decision to move my dad to memory care. We were working with a senior care advisor and his first recommendation was Canterfield of Kennesaw, not only for proximity but also for value, cleanliness and caregiver-to-resident ratio. I insisted on visiting a number of facilities within a reasonable distance to make sure we found just the right place. There simply was no comparison. I knew my dad would do well at Canterfield and I was a peace with the decision. We've not regretted the decision for a moment. My dad is actually thriving and that makes my heart happy.
