Senior Apartments
Family likes this community because of the calendar that comes out monthly, describing the activities each day. They look through it and decide which would be fun, or helpful, or social. I like their input. They do not have meal service, but no one seems to care. If they served meals, I would definitely eat way more than I need, and I like the freedom. They have kitchen facilities for our use if we decide to cook a meal for family. AND We love the facilities. They have space for dancing, indoor exercise programs, morning coffees, craft shows, etc. The residents that have lived here a while are quite active once they learn what is available.
This is independent living. So, there is no housekeeping. But the staff is excellent and very friendly and helpful. This specific location is within the county's best meals on wheels services group. Internet and cable television at no additional charge. Very nice grounds. Pet friendly and they have pet waste stations on the property.
They were so supportive of my brother through his illness and liver transplant. My brother has his life back and is recovering well. Thank you. You were God's angels in our lives.
