Recent reviews of Independent Living in Rip Rap, VA
The Addison in Durham, NC
4.5

I would recommend to others. Overall, we are happy with the experience our mother is having, given her condition. The work of managing the memory care facility has got to be difficult and I appreciate them keeping her safe. Can't expect much more.

Atria Oakridge in Raleigh, NC
5.0

Atria Oakridge has brought me wonderful fellowship and wellbeing. The activities keep me busy all day- such as pottery, painting, the games and more. The staff treats you like a real person and as a member of their family. I don't have to cook or clean and I enjoy the variety of food! I can get out in the sunshine to mingle and enjoy this beautiful campus. You wont believe it until you see it! Come and see for yourself!

The Canterbury House in Roxboro, NC
5.0

We chose Canterbury House because it is very close to our home so it makes it convenient. The staff is really friendly and very helpful. The appearance of the community is just very warm and welcoming. When we visited the community everyone was very welcoming and extremely friendly. We are very pleased with Canterbury House and would very highly recommend this community.
