Eddy Hawthorne Ridge

Would recommend.

The floor staff seem really nice and friendly with my dad. There was a lot of renovation work done and dining halls were closed so extra people at times and food sometimes cold. Would be nice if they asked residents what they would like.

They are really perfect. They are trying to accomodate my loved one, who loves the breakfast. They have plenty of activites. The value for the money is worth it, and it gives me a peace of mind. I saw the community before, and had the opportunity to tour the place, and it was a nice place. I was able to get my loved one in there quickly. The staff is amazing.

I have lived here for more than three years, I love it, and I can explain the "difference" if you're looking for a place to live. A lot of other senior communities are really just "senior apartments" and nothing else. They're not "communities" of friends and neighbors. Here at Eddy Hawthorne Ridge, its a real community feel...tons of organized trips and activities, and really nice food is served, like in a restaurant. This is not "cafeteria style" institutional food. In fact, we have an incredible wood-burning oven out in the open, in our dining area, and they make fantastic pizza. Honestly, in all our years ordering and eating pizzas from local pizza places...this pizza beats them all. They should open up a side business and sell it!

I'm in my early/mid 70s, have lived here for three years, and would highly recommend it to others. Here in independent living, we come and go as we please and many of us have cars that we drive to see friends and family or do whatever (in my case, I volunteer a lot and still like going to the mall). Although even if we didn't have a car, they provide transportation. There's another section of the community for assisted living, and that's for people who need extra help, but over here in independent living, many of us are quite active and enjoy getting out and going places frequently!

Mom and Dad comparison shopped "a lot" before moving in here. They toured eight places, and my husband and I went on five of those tours, including the one here at Eddy Hawthorne Ridge. They asked a lot of questions and talked with a lot of residents. They've now been here seven months and couldn't be happier.. They did their homework and made a good choice.

Dad really loves the fact that he can be social whenever he wants, because there are always plenty of people he can socialize with. But at the same time, he can always have all the privacy he wants, so it's the best of both worlds. This place is so much better, by a hundred times, than a similar senior residence who was in prior to moving here. Everything here is better quality, literally everything...including the staff, who are just wonderful.

A friend of ours is 73 years old and moved in just after she turned 70. We see her frequently--she's still very active and independent, and she always says what an excellent place this is. We've actually joined her for dinner a few times and it's always excellent, as good or better than what we get at a restaurant.

It was difficult to make the decision to place my 88 year old husband into Eddy Memory Care, but I have never regretted it for a moment. To know he is safe and being cared for by experts has been a wonderful benefit for my mental and physical state especially during this miserable period of COVID. Life for him was more enjoyable when they had live entertainment, trips and more activities, but like all of us he has adjusted. The staff provides all they can in physical care, mental stimulation, excellent nutrition, clean surroundings and loving concern. Communication with me is always prompt and I know he is well cared for. I cannot always visit him when I would like because of health department lock downs after a positive covid exposure. This too will pass. Everyone is vaccinated and staff are tested on a regular basis. I can call him or contact staff for reassurance whenever needed. I highly recommend this program!

I have been here for four months. I love my apartment, have made many new friends and have no complaints! The facilities are well-kept, staffed adequately and the grounds are beautiful. I was pleased to find the community welcoming but not overwhelming. You can socialize as much or as little you feel like doing! It is so nice not to have to cook or clean!

We chose Eddy Hawthorne Ridge because we felt like it was a community minded facility that really focused on the residents. The room sizes are very nice and spacious. The intake person was very good with us, she was helpful and great at letting us know what to expect. I would recommend them to others looking.
