Vineville Tower in Macon, GA
5.0

I moved my aunt whom is 68 yrs old, she loves it, the community is very friendly and access to shopping and other things are right at your feet. There are so many good things about this center I can write a book. From the beginning or my search I was helped by ROSE the office admin. She is amazing and always willing to try and help.

Benton House of Covington
3.8

I really suggest you continue to do your research on all assisted living communities. Benton House provided all inclusive pricing, including care. The staff have been good to work with the family if we have any questions or concerns. There are three meals a day served to the residents. I believe they could improve variety of options more frequently, especially drink options.

The Cottages on Wesleyan in Macon, GA

The Cottages is a wonderful facility with a great staff. They have provided my mother with a very caring and supportive environment. The scale of operations at The Cottages gives it a home/family feel that is unique and enables a very personalized experience.
