Reviews

Residents and their families say:

Reviewers appreciated the cleanliness, caring staff, and ample activities at Bear Creek Senior Living. Several feedbacks highlighted the well-maintained, albeit older, facilities, focusing on its welcoming, homey atmosphere, large closet spaces in the studios, and beautiful outdoor areas. Reviewers also applauded the facility for having no unwelcome odors, a common complaint in similar institutions. The excellent location of the community was emphasized numerous times, and users described the rates as reasonable, although costs apparently increase with additional care necessities.
The environment was said to foster a sense of community, with the residents often engaged in activities rather than sitting alone. One user appreciated being able to bring a horse to the premises to interact with the residents, giving special mention to the notable friendliness of the staff during their tour. Additionally, one reviewer spoke about their relative's success story at Bear Creek, describing how the patient regained strength, health, and lucidity due to the dedication and care from the staff. Another user expressed satisfaction with the memory care provided at the facilities. Facilities, including room sizes, dining area, meaningful activities, and the general layout were also commended.
Critiques mostly centered around the food's taste and the availability of menu items. However, some reviewers praised the quality of the meals. There were also a few reports of initial pressure while touring, which slightly marred the otherwise smooth process of getting their loved ones situated. Excellent communication, especially concerning the residents' wellbeing, was considered one of Bear Creek's strong suits by many users. Comments like "Outstanding facility" and "Impressed with the clean facility" were also commonly used, and the staff were frequently referred to as compassionate or caring. One user boldly declared, "I can't imagine there is a better senior facility around." Another reviewer described their experience as "easy, comfortable," while more than a few endorsed Bear Creek based on their positive experiences, highlighting the responsiveness of the staff and the sense of individual care.
