Recent reviews of Independent Living in Fontana, KS
Vintage Park at Gardner
4.3

We really like the nursing staff and the manager, our only complaint we have about the place is over the weekends there are no regular staff members. The rooms are nice, and our loved ones thing the food is good.

Vintage Park at Ottawa
4.7

This is a nice place for your loved one to be. I would recommend to take your loved one to see the community. If you can stay a little bit and see activities in the community you will be able to see how things go.

Anthology of Olathe
4.7

The food is good and appropriate temperature but the residents have to sit and wait for their food way to long. When it comes to the activities they have for the residents there are crafts, history talks, bingo, games, movies, outings, manicures, happy hour, Bible study, church service. We would absolutely recommend Anthology of Olathe to other families based on our experience so far.
