My Grandparents really love it. There are a lot of activities and the facility is very nice.
I was very impressed with our experience at Lexington Park, it's a very nice place for independent senior living! It's a nice looking place, the people are all very friendly, and the apartments are a very nice size for the price! I would highly recommend them!
Vintage Park at Atchison was a pleasant community. My wife stayed for a short time for respite care. We both enjoyed the variety of food that they served. They offered many activities and my wife had a great time participating. The staff took good care of her and were very easy to communicate with. Vintage Park gets my recommendation!
