It is a very comfortable place to live. We are well fed and our apartments are cleaned regularly. The staff are wonderful! Our social director is very imaginative and keeps us entertained, and all the other employees do a very good job at their assignments.

Highly Recommend

It is a great community if you are looking for senior living. The best thing is they are very accommodating for someone that is more independent. They bent over backwards to assist my loved one during their stay. The staff was very nice to work with.

Great for my mom

We chose Solstice Senior Living at the time because of the apartment that she was able to get. The size of the room was very spacious. The administrator and staff are wonderful and very helpful. I would recommend to others looking.

Good Overall

Overall, I feel my time at Solstice Senior Living has been good. Initially, I felt comfortable from he moment I walked in the door. The staff was helpful, and everyone greeted you. A new company has just taken over management, so there are a lot of changes going on that sometimes make it hard to keep track of things. Generally though, the staff is helpful, the food is excellent, the place is clean, and they always have plenty going on for the residents. It is still a good community, and I'm hopeful that when the new management settles in, things will run more smoothly.

Beautiful Community

Parkway Chateau is a beautiful community. With the lush and well-maintained landscaping and the gorgeous hydrangeas and petunias growing everywhere. Benches are placed around the community to sit and enjoy the fresh air. The dining room is very elegant with the beautiful chandeliers. I have my breakfast brought to my room. I haven't found out how to order anything different so I have had scrambled eggs every morning. The food in the dining room is very good. My apartment is very spacious and has a beautiful view from my windows. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend Parkway Chateau to friends and family.

The people are their biggest asset!

The staff and the residents are extremely friendly. They have gone out of their way to make me feel at home. The food has recently changed, they are now having it brought in and it is not very good. Their van is not handicapped accessible. They do offer daily trips and daily activities. I would recommend this community.

Our first 2 weeks at Parkway Chateau

The staff and residents are so friendly and courteous. And the food is delicious!!!. Activities are well planned and trips are planned every Wednesday with one Wednesday a month a being a long trip. We went to Friday Harbor, stopped at an art museum ther and then went on to Roche Harbor for lunch. We spent time at the alpaca ranch. Learning about the alpacas and seeing the lovely products that are made from the wool. We toured the island and saw where some of the residents, bus driver and director had family homes and friends. Finished off the trip with an ice cream parlor trip while waiting for the ferry. Our fabulous cook had prepared us a sack breakfast to take with us, so that we could catch the early ferry. S

A Perfect Match

I found it not necessary to tour anywhere else for my Dad to live. P.C met all his needs and wants. Alan in marketing and Terry, the Manager were so helpful in guiding us through the process. My Dad has now been there 3 weeks. We describe it as, 'a cruise ship on land'!

So far so good.

So far so good. She says it's boring, some of the activities, are not as stimulating as she would hope, and the outings can be quite strenuous. She loves the food. The one thing that I don't like is that they only have one elevator. There are no hidden fees or extra charges. They seemed to be pretty comparable in price to other places.

Love the PC!

In any situation there is always room for improvement so I didn't give everything a five star. Things got kind of bungled up in the beginning about our move in date....but Parkway Chateau more than made up for their error. We are extremely happy with everything - the staff is friendly, the food is good and my mom loves it there and that's all that matters! She has not been this engaged in social type activities the last 4 years since my dad died. We love seeing her involved with the other residents!

My husband and I were given a very nice tour, very comprehensive and informative on extremely short notice. The community manager had been very patient on the phone, listening to my questions before the visit, and going out of his way to accommodate us on our last-minute request for a tour (at our convenience, totally). He was an excellent representative of Parkway Chateau and we were favorably impressed, except for the lack of individual (separate) cottages on the premises.
