Recent reviews of Independent Living in Ayer, WA
Quail Run Retirement Community in Walla Walla, WA
5.0

The staff is very friendly, even the owner was laying down on the grass playing with our dog. The managers are great too. They have really good meals, and you have a choice, and they serve meat and vegetarian options too. They have exercise classes and bocce ball, and bingo, so there are some varied activities. This was the best place that fit what we needed of the places we looked at.

Brookdale Richland
4.5

I had to move my mother here recently. The staff have been very friendly and helpful. I ate lunch there one day with mom and the food was very good and it was nice to have a selection of main dishes instead of just one. The building seems to be cheerful, clean, and all staff have been great. Mom's room is small, but very cozy and we did our best to bring many of her favorite things so that she could feel at home. She has her privacy with one bedroom and can choose to leave and be social if she chooses. There are many activities each day to choose from for the people. Mom loves to go on the trips on the facility bus as she just lost her driver's license and loves to get out and ride. Her room is handicap friendly for her walker along with the other areas of the buildings. A great location to walk to nearby shops. I would recommend Brookdale to others.

Parkview Estates in Kennewick, WA
5.0

We went with Parkview Estates because some of the studio apartments are located at the end of the wings of the hallway and they are a little bigger but the same price. She also liked the setting, it is set back in a residential community so it is not on a main street. The value for the money especially for the area is also something that really stuck out to us. Mom has had nothing but glowing things to say about the food. The facility does accept Medicaid, they were one of 5 places that accepted it in the area. I would definitely recommend to others looking.
