May 24, 2024Your kind words go a long way to brighten our day. We’ll be sure to share your review with our team members. Thanks so much.
Overall I feel that my mom is at a good place and I feel comfortable that they are handling her daily needs. I do think that they need to expand their programming to include much more physical activity and specialty programs for the memory care residents that are higher functioning. It is definitely a systemic issue. Unfortunately, eldercare is a bottom line business.

July 12, 2023We’re so grateful you feel happy and at home. From great dining to fun events and activities, we hope you’re taking advantage of all our community has to offer. Thank you for your kind review.
The care is very good. My biggest frustration is that whenever I have questions or need to know something, I find if very difficult to get a hold of anyone. If I call and leave a message or email them, I never get a response. They need to have more interactive activities and encourage the residents to get to know one another.

February 27, 2023Your happiness and well-being are our biggest priorities. We’ll pass your comments along to our team and follow up with you soon. Thank you for letting us know.
The staff members at the community are so friendly that we would give them 10 stars. We brought a friend with us one day to visit our loved one and she liked it so much that she said when the time comes she would like to move in there and that was huge for us. We do think it is a very valuable cost and based on the experience we would recommend them to other families. Even though he has not participated in the activities yet from what we have seen they look phenomenal and the staff had put in all their efforts to really encourage him to get involved. He does say the food is really good as well.

December 16, 2022We’re so grateful you noticed all the things we do to make your loved one feel happy and at home. From great dining to fun events and activities, we really do believe our community is a wonderful place to live. And we’re glad you think so too.
This has been a wonderful experience. I cannot say enough about it, it is wonderful. The staff have been helpful, thoughtful, and caring towards my loved one. My loved one is thriving since being in the community. The staff communication with the family is thoughtful, kind, friendly, and respectful. They know my loved one by name. You can tell the staff really love the residents because they are well groomed, clean, and vibrant. There are three meals a day, and healthy and mindful choices for the residents to choose from. Games, movies, art room, and more are some of the activities offered to the residents to participate in.

July 19, 2022Listening to the perspectives of our visitors is a crucial part of our job. Tell us more. Please schedule a time to discuss this matter further. Thank you for your honesty.
I've been here since June and find this to be the BEST place to live. The managing staff is wonderful as are the caregivers - however, they could use more caregivers. Two of my friends have moved here on my recommendation.

Seemed most residents were memory care and only saw about 20-30 residents during the tour. Great community overall.
