Castle Vista in Atwater, CA
5.0

I have lived at Castle Vista since April 2014. It is a great place to retire. The residents are caring and friendly. I have made many friends here. The maintenance is excellent. One phone call is all you need if you have a problem. There are daily activities. Always something fun to do. I have a 4 bedroom, 2 bath. The utility costs are low. The rent is affordable when compared to other homes in our area. I feel safe and secure here. The staff is great. Thank you Dave, Jennifer and Denise. I hope to spend many more years here.

Truewood by Merrill, Fig Garden in Fresno, CA
4.6

So far my father loves it there. He feels very lucky. What we like the most about Truewood by Merrill, Fig Garden is that it is in walking distance to small outdoor mall. Nice part of Fresno. My dad spends most of the day eating with others. Very good for his health.
