8 Best Independent Living Communities in Belknap County, NH

Very happy with the care and concern that my Mom is receiving at Golden View! It is very expensive - I feel it could be less expensive - but I’ve found that all these facilities are about the same cost! My biggest issue is that the food is sub-par!!!! They should have better food with a better variety of choices! She hardly ever has received a steak! It’s always chicken , meatloaf, pot roast and very blah food! She enjoys the breakfasts but not a fan of the main dinner! The staff is absolutely wonderful - however they need more employees (like most) they can’t find people to work! Overall 4 stars! I also wish that the activities were more versatile to suit the individuals!

This experience is more on our loved one, but it took him a bit to acclimate. The community is clean without being stifling and it is comfortable to live in. The staff members are great. We have had some medication communication hiccups. It is homely now ironed out. Our dad loves the variety of food they serve. Other than the occasional bingo and bridge, our loved one hasn't relayed much information Overall I believe it is pretty good.

I’ve lived here, in a lovely cottage, for two years and could not be happier! The caring and very supportive staff wants us all to be healthy and active at every level. There are activities in all categories, and if there is something you want that isn’t already established, the staff will help you get it. I’ve met some of the nicest people here, staff and neighbors. My best friend of 62 years lived here and recently passed away. I can’t imagine what more anyone could have wanted as far as caring, supportive and, yes, loving help that she received during her last months. I thank Taylor Community so much for easing her last months. We have a lot of fun here, music programs, individual raised bed gardens, walking paths, a gym, exercise pool, French club, crocheting, birthday parties, at least one day trip a week, hiking, a movie theater and more.
