The Vintage at Mount Vernon
5.0

I've had a great experience here so far, I'd recommend this place highly! You get quite a lot for what you pay here, they are "apartment homes" so each unit has a small fully equipped kitchen, and a washer and dryer. The complex also has a gym, billiard room, and a great room for socializing. The front office people are very friendly, cordial, and personable, and they made the transition as easy as could be!

Olympic Place Retirement and Assisted Living in Arlington, WA

Thank you to "A Place For Mom" for finding this lovely community for my Mom to reside in. Our Mother was forced to leave Brookdale Arbor Place after her care level became more than they could handle and they were putting her under a great deal of stress. My Mom was on hospice and time was of the essence when I reached out to A Place For Mom. [name removed], executive director of Olympic Place, called me the very next morning and worked with us to get my Mom moved within a few days. We rented a gorgeous one bedroom apartment with cathedral ceilings and large windows. It was clean, bright and a cheerful setting. The staff went out of their way to make our mom feel cared-for, comfortable and important. They treated her with respect and honored her requests. The entire facility is bright and well furnished. The food was wonderful and residents have many options available to them as they can order from a menu each day. Olympic Place has a beautiful dining room with a kind and attentive staff. It seemed the management was always present and addressed any questions or concerns immediately. A world of difference from our experience at Brookdale - all of this and our cost was $1,400 LESS than what we were paying for a small studio apartment before. There are not the words to describe what it meant to our family knowing our Mom was safe, happy and receiving the care she deserved in her final months. Thank you, Olympic Place!

Regency on Whidbey in Oak Harbor, WA

I've been very pleased. I have a nice 1100 square foot cottage apartment. The food is excellent, and I've gained some pounds I have to say! For each meal, they have about 4-5 things on the plate, at about 1/2 cup serving each, so you get a big variety without an overly huge amount of food, which is good. , The people who wait on us are very efficient and friendly. All of the people here are very nice. They're always cleaning, and I'm very happy with how well they clean my apartment for me. When I ask the staff for something, they respond very quickly. When I look at what my house used to cost me and add in utilities, I think I'm getting a good deal here.
