Courtyard Retirement and Assisted Living in Lafayette, LA

We are very pleased. Very good staff and quality of care. We can't think of anything in particular. Mom is very happy here with everything.

Garden View Assisted Living of Lafayette
5.0

Garden View has been absolutely wonderful, starting with the management, housekeeping, activities provided for residents, meals provided, etc. I can honestly say that we have had absolutely NO complaints and/or concerns since my mother-in-law has moved in approximately three months ago. I would HIGHLY recommend Garden View as an absolutely wonderful facility for your elderly family member!

The Blake at Lafayette
5.0

We were, and continue to be, very impressed with The Blake! The staff is polite, professional, yet very warm and friendly. The food is very good - a healthy, balanced mix of local favorites. The rooms are well-designed, and the grounds are well maintained. Mom seems to enjoy the activities there. We miss her, but are glad she's back in her home town and spending her remaining days among such a nice community!
