Not at all the fault of the facility- wonderful people and wonderful residents Mom didn’t get the level of care needed when she first arrived - she was not independent and we didn’t realize that until she was there and it became more apparent Needed more upfront evaluation before moving her - she needs assisted not independent living...

My love one is doing very well with her move to this community. It is a nice facility, and I'am comfortable with her move here. She is doing well, and she in good hands. They have kind, friendly staff, and they do a good job with the cleanliness around the community. There are good activities available, and they provide nice meals for the residents. I would recommend this community to my friends, and family. We haven't had any problems with her move here.

The community was wonderful. It was lovely inside very nicely furnished. The person who took us on the tour was very knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions or concerns that we had. This place is wonderful if you are looking for the strickly independent living however for my parents we were in need of more of the assisted living so this was not going to be a good choice for us.

We had a very good tour of this community. Everything went great. Everyone was kind to my husband, and I. The community looked great, and everything appeared to be very well kept. The staff was kind, and helpful. Our questions were answered. This is a wonderful community, but unfortunately their prices were out of budget.

This is a pleasant community, and our tour of it went very well. The community looked nice from what we saw. The staff was kind, and friendly to my family, and I. The experience was a good one, but the location of this community was not convenient for us to travel too.

My parents recently moved to Capital Oaks. This all-inclusive retirement community provides for all their essential needs and more. I call it living in a cruise ship with an apartment rather than a stateroom. Transportation to shopping, entertainment and doctor appointments provided as well as on-site pharmacy, salon, gym (with a sauna!) and a 150-seat theater. Three meals a day plus snacks are available and my parents and I can attest that take food is excellent. The residents are friendly and welcoming. Some apartments have walk-out patios or balconies. And pets are welcome at first-floor apartments with walkouts!

The staff have been friendly and welcoming since my mom has moved in. It is still new to her and she is getting use to the lifestyle. She likes the meals they serve her and the staff have shown her where the activities are. My mom likes that they have a lot of card games and the activities that are available.

My mother is well at this community. So far since her move to this community, everything is working out pretty good. It is a well-kept community. They do a good job with the cleanliness. The staff is great. There are nice activities available for the residents. She is pleased with the meals they serve. It is a community I would recommend. They are providing her with good care, and I'am satisfied overall.

Excellent facility overall. Rooms were smaller than where Mom is now. 2nd exit to patio is a really nice option. Theater is awesome. The overall cost is on the high end, however, it seems most everything is included in the rent. No acreage for walking trails, etc.

We had a good tour of Capital Oaks Retirement Resort. I did find it was a little to expensive for us. They offer a lot of great amenities. There is to much stuff going on than I think my aunt and uncle could enjoy.

We've been here now for a week and our initial beliefs have been borne out. The building itself is great, the food outstanding , and the residents are extra friendly. Can't sit down for a meal without someone joining us. Since were still an us a fairly high ratio of couples was an added plus in our decision. Would recommend Capital Oaks unconditionally.

Thank you for helping my husband and I find a senior home. We moved in on 2/26/16. We have found Capital Oaks to be a wonderful decision. The facilities, staff, food and all other services are wonderful. The help that we received from A Place For Mom was invaluable. We viewed and visited 5 facilities (All 5 were listed on the list provided by A Place For Mom). We chose Capital Oaks because it provided everthing we were looking for. I will gladly recommend Capital Oaks. Thank you.

My Mom recently moved into The Capital Oaks Retirement Resort. She absolutely loves it there. She is so pleased with everything, including the wonderful staff, the meals, and the options for activities!! We were so concerned about how Mom would adjust to her move and we truly could not be more pleased. It is so nice to see her so happy and excited!! Many thanks to Capital Oaks and their entire staff for making this a great experience for our Mom !

We LOVE Capital Oaks! It's marketed as a resort lifestyle and it truly is like living in a Hilton resort. The common areas are large, beautiful and functional. The staff is amazing and well trained. The Freedom Dining program is offers the best food and beverage in the a triangle with 24/7/365 access. (Their prime rib buffet on Sunday's is outstanding) If you're sick or just don't feel like going downstairs, room service will deliver meals to your apartment. Dad's apartment is VERY nice and spacious compared with the other 7 properties I saw in the triangle. It has stainless steel full sized appliances and granite countertops in the kitchen and bath areas as well as a washer and dryer in the unit. Housekeeping changes the bedding, vacuums, dusts and cleans the bath weekly - it's include in the price as is cable and VOIP phone. Hayes Barton Pharmacy is onsite and they offer medication adherence packaging for about $20 monthly. Dad just pushes the pills out of the blister packs with his thumb for breakfast, lunch, dinner and bedtimes and we never worry that he is messing up his fairly complex medication regimen. The only negative I have found is that Capital Oaks doesn't meet the criteria for long term care insurance. Since that isn't their charter, you just need to be aware of this fact.
