Recent reviews of Independent Living in Winder, GA
TerraBella Sugarloaf in Suwanee, GA
4.9

The staff is very friendly and helpful, and you have activities, except for Saturday and Sunday. They have transportation within a ten mile radius and no charge. They also do outings, such as trips to grocery stores and restaurants. The move in was easy. The meals are good, but should be more healthy and not seafood so much due to allergies. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Dogwood Forest of Grayson
5.0

My husband ended up at Dogwood Forest in Grayson. It was expensive but I would give it a 10+. The food is so important to the residents, the high light of their day. They have a 'real' chef there and I ate many meals there myself. So number one is meals. They also had awesome entertainment. Sometimes it was the staff other times outside people. They go above and beyond the standards. You should check it out yourself.

Very nice facility. Friendly and caring staff. They made a point to know my father's name from day one. They were great at communicating with me as well.
