Senior Apartments
Our loved one is doing very well at Harborview Senior Living community, overall it has been a great fit. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would highly recommend this community to other families who may need a place for their loved ones.
I really could not have asked for a better community to live in. The property including my bedroom is very well maintained and I have a gorgeous view of the outside woods right outside my front window. All of the residents and staff have all been wonderful at welcoming me and making me feel right at home in my new living environment.
We like the care at this community. The staff is very nice and we like the staff who are outstanding. The owner is wonderful and my mom really is happy with the care. I like knowing that the community is clean and an older community. The menu is good and they could use some small improvements. I like that they do offer her activities. We would recommend this community for good care for other families.
