We needed a home for my FIL that he would be comfortable in and have lots of activities. He had no desire to do activities but now that he’s been there a few months, we can never find him because he’s busy! The staff is great and we truly appreciate everything they do. I highly recommend Summer Vista!... Read more

Our family had an in person tour with the Summer Vista community and we thought it was a very nice tour experience. With everything we saw, and the different staff we met with, it was one of our top choices.
I would give them a 10 if I could. The gentleman who led our tour was awesome - give him a raise! He was so thorough and informative. We were very happy with the tour and the community. My loved one simply preferred another location. But Summer Vista seemed like a great choice!
I would highly recommend Summer Vista. I like that my loved one is free to roam around, and she gets the extra care that she needs.

Summer Vista is very nice on the outside. When you walk inside it is very grand and feels like a resort. We were looking for a place that had more of a homey atmosphere. The facility is also very large and would require a lot of walking which would not have worked for my loved one. They also do not offer a veterans discount here and it is very expensive.
The staff members are wonderful and when we first came to see Summer Vista we were immediately sold. All of the care workers have been amazing - a few of them have gone out of their way to create a bond with our loved one, they have really taken to her. The meals and dining service is pretty good even when they have to close the dining room down for covid. A few times a day they work on physical therapy and other forms of therapy with our loved one.

Our family had an in person tour and the people were very nice there, but it was not as clean and the layout was just not going to work for our loved one.
If your loved one is indepent than this is a good fit. My mom did fine since she was able to bathe herself and walk around. Management changed twice in the 8 months she was there. Keep a close eye on your loved one if they need any assistance. Some of the staff is more caring than others.

Summer Vista was our second choice, we did really like this facility. But after a couple of other tours, we found another place that was a better fit for our loved one.
The layout of the facility was good and I liked that along with the accessibility. The community is short-staffed but that is an issue everywhere. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

I recommended the community to a friend. My mom loves it here. It is extremely clean, the staff is wonderful and friendly. Some of the response time could be improved to the resident's call buttons. The staff are efficient, as well.

I would tell others that I have been dissatisfied with the nursing staff, handling of medications, the food, it is just not a good experience. The administrative staff has changed twice since being here, the ones here now are better than the ones before. I would not recommend to others looking

Covid made things difficult, the activities were limited due to all of the restrictions. Through time the communication got better however it was just not a good fit our loved one.
You need to monitor your loved one's care no matter where your loved one is at. I would recommend this community to others. Overall we really like this community.

A Place for Mom has scored Summer Vista 8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
