Recent reviews of Independent Living in Crystal Lake, NJ
Brandywine Senior Living at Wall
5.0

I chose Brandywine Living at Wall in NJ as a home for my dad when we lost my mom and it was getting difficult to care for him on our own. I call Brandywine a "home" because that is exactly what it has become for our entire family, including my dad. I have to admit I was anxious about the transition with my dad, but the staff here has demonstrated nothing but kindness and a genuine commitment to supporting my dad's specific needs. Their flexibility and willingness to collaborate with me have ensured that my dad has received the highest standard level of care possible. The food here is outstanding and the dining hall, including the entire building, is always immaculately clean. There are activities daily for the residents to partake, which is where my dad got to meet friends and socialize; my dad says when the weather is nice, his favorite thing to do is have the staff assist him in walking around the beautiful garden area outside. There isn't a better place to call home then Brandywine

Atria Tinton Falls
5.0

My mother went to see Atria in April and loved the place. She moved in the next month and raves about the staff and the activities that they do. It’s a relief knowing that Atria cares about the residents

Monmouth Crossing Assisted Living in Freehold, NJ
5.0

Monmouth Crossing is the absolute best facility to place your elder parents in that you’re not able to care for anymore. The people here are so caring and compassionate and friendly. You couldn’t ask for anything more. Mom is crossing is so clean. There are no odors that you expect from a nursing facility at all there’s always activities going on, so they always have something to engage in. The food is extremely delicious and if they don’t like something they’re always offered something else. This is definitely the place to be I wouldn’t go anywhere else..
