Last Updated: 2/21/25

If you’re considering moving your loved one into a Stow nursing home, our senior living advisors can help.

Recent reviews of Nursing Homes in Stow, ME
Avita of Stroudwater in Westbrook, ME
5.0

They did try to take good care of my loved one. They offered daily activities and the community was clean. The food was good. My loved one was only there for a short time as we realized he needed more care than they were able to provide. They oversold themselves on the care that was available. They gave out incorrect information in regard to some programs that may have been available. I would recommend asking about the security at this community.

Stroudwater Lodge in Westbrook, ME
4.0

So far it has been a great fit for my mom at the Stroudwater Lodge. It is a new and beautiful community. It is the first one we toured and it had everything we needed. It is very convenient for my mom to get to her nearby Dr. appointments. Most of the time the communication is pretty good with staff members when I have questions or concerns regarding my mom's care needs. The staff takes good care of her and her care needs. The food is well-balanced but mom has special dietary needs and they are working with me so that she can get the proper nutrition. At this time mom is not able to participate in activities, but there is a resident nearby that they have become friends due to a shared family member. I would recommend Stroudwater Lodge to friends and family.

Golden View Health Care Assisted Living in Meredith, NH
4.1

Very happy with the care and concern that my Mom is receiving at Golden View! It is very expensive - I feel it could be less expensive - but I’ve found that all these facilities are about the same cost! My biggest issue is that the food is sub-par!!!! They should have better food with a better variety of choices! She hardly ever has received a steak! It’s always chicken , meatloaf, pot roast and very blah food! She enjoys the breakfasts but not a fan of the main dinner! The staff is absolutely wonderful - however they need more employees (like most) they can’t find people to work! Overall 4 stars! I also wish that the activities were more versatile to suit the individuals!
