Garden Estates of Temple

I would not hesitate to recommend Garden Estates to everyone. It is an exceptional place to live for those who need a little or even a lot of help. They are a wonderful administrative group with whom to work. It is active and social even with people in their 90's as my brother was. It is a good home, and we would go there if our family were closer to Temple. They are very busy with long work hours (engineers and estimators in administrative positions) and beginning to age themselves--and grandkids with little ones--who just can't travel that far just to visit. They come out here (50 miles) every weekend to mow and do odd jobs, but soon we will take more than that.

The staff at Garden Estates of Temple have been absolutely fantastic! They treat my Mom like family. I can't say enough good things about the ladies that help my Mom!

Our loved one is very happy there. Her routine keeps her hopping and she is close by us now. The food is decent and and the company is knowledgeable

I would give Garden Estates of Temple 5s in all areas. They are taking great care of my Mom and the whole staff there is top notch! Very happy with them!

Garden estates is a fairly good place for people needing modest help with living. It's not for people needing a lot of care. Housekeeping could be improved but is adequate. Food is not necessarily consistently good or healthy. Transportation is limited. However the atmosphere is welcoming, the staff is kind and involved personally with the residents, and the rooms are larger than many I viewed. It takes most of my friend's pension to live there.

This facility is so kind and clean. I would recommend highly to everyone.

The onboarding process was great. They worked directly with my loved one to ensure that he understood everything that was available to him. I would recommend this facility to others.

I would recommend to others, very friendly staff and residents, the community is very clean. We didn't visit any other community together but Garden Estate wrapped there arms around us and we felt that the hug was real.

Our family likes that Garden Estates of Temple is a smaller sized community and we like the other residents that are living there. There is an ease when we are able to come and visit and we would recommend this community to other families.

All of the categories listed would be fives! It really has been great so far! My mom loves all the staff members working there. They treat her really good. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would absolutely recommend Garden Estates of Temple to other families.

My family and loved one have had a great experience with the community. The staff are kind, caring, and knowledgeable. Everyone is friendly. There are wonderful activities for the residents to participate in. Overall, this is a community we would recommend to others for their loved ones. Two things in particular stood out to me: the place was spotless, it was obvious that sanitation was a priority; the other thing was the residence themselves; they were genuinely happy to be there, and it followed that they were extremely friendly.

We picked this community, because the price was reasonable I would recommend this place!! They are much more than assisted living, they are a home for my parents!!I love it. They are so friendly and personable!!! They have parties, pictures, bingo, lunch outings, zoo, exercise, card games, etc

I am a resident of Garden Estates Assisted Living Center in Temple, Texas. I have lived here for about eleven months, and truly think of it as home. There are many activities offered here, from games to talent brought in for performances. Just this week we had a “senior prom” with live entertainment, and which residents seem to enjoy. Once a week we have a Bible study led by a resident, which I enjoy. I don’t participate in everything offered, but many residents do. I enjoy the live performances of musicians. Garden Estates is an overall wonderful place, and I’m grateful to be able to live here.

Garden estates has been a good experience. They were very helpful in adjusting fees and in helping my friend get moved in and settled. Great that they had a handyman on premises who installed things. Food is not the best but otherwise no complaints. The staff is helpful I like that there are no levels of care tacked on to his rent. As long as he is pretty much able to navigate by himself he can stay there. If he requires more hands or attention then we will have to move him.

We had toured a few other communities and ultimately chose this one, and so far it has been a good experience. The staff members are extremely friendly and our loved one really loves the meals they serve. This community looks a lot nicer out of the others and it seems like it would be the most expensive but in reality, it was less then the others. Her apartment is much bigger, the common areas and dining room area is super nice. Based on our experience we would definitely recommend Garden Estates of Temple to other families.

As soon as I was interested I reached out to the person I worked with and she answered every question I ever had. Even to this day she is great if I ever have any questions she welcomes me into her office to help. We are very happy and have just gotten through the adjustment period. She is doing very well and I think it is a great facility. I would definitely recommend Garden Estates of Temple, but so so others know, there is limited space available.

My mother is a resident and the staff are lovely people. It is very clean & updated decor with nice activities. The food has become a joke. Chicken nuggets one day, a greasy slice of pizza the next, green peas 5 out of 7 days. Not healthy at all. People are healthier and happier when served well balanced and fresh food options. I didn't want to give a poor review, but the management refuses to acknowledge the issue.

This was a good place. Very nice staff and a lovely facility. My loved one just wanted to get back to Houston, their home.

When Sophia on the TV program Golden Girls moved to Shady Pines, the characters referred to it as "the home". When I first came to Garden Estates in Temple, Texas, my son and I jokingly referred to it as "the home". Now, after three months living here, I simply refer to it as "home" because that's the way I feel about Garden Estates. The staff is wonderful. All my needs are met, and even though I'm not as old as some of the other residents, I feel like it is a great place for me to live in this season of my life. I'm grateful that I found Garden Estates.
