Vintage Park at Atchison
5.0

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!

[name removed] is amazing and willing to work with you. I like the relationship you have with Royal Services and [name removed] is amazing as well. I would most definitely recommend Cory Place to others looking for retirement living.

Holiday Country Squire in Saint Joseph, MO

My friend lives at Country Squire and she has been more than satisfied. He no longer feels lonely. It’s a beautiful community with a feeling of home. The residents are active and involved. There is always something fun going on. The food is good and there are lots of options. It’s given my friend a new lease on life! I never thought I would see him so engaged but he’s at most events and loves bingo now!
