Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive remarks for its friendly and caring staff, alongside an array of activities tailored to residents' interests, contributing to a vibrant and inclusive environment. Residents and their families appreciate the ample opportunities for social interaction, with many highlighting the sense of community and support they feel. From the variety of meal options to the well-maintained and comfortable living spaces, the attention to detail in ensuring residents' happiness and well-being is evident. The community’s environment, characterized by its approachability and attentiveness from the staff, has been a significant factor for its residents. The scenic views and the facility's convenient location add to its appeal, making it a favored choice for those seeking a fulfilling retirement living experience.
However, some reviews have pointed out areas needing improvement. Notable concerns include dissatisfaction with certain aspects of the meal services, cleanliness issues in communal areas, and a significant staff turnover which some find disconcerting. Mention was made of additional charges that seemed unreasonable to some, and difficulties in accessing the building after hours were notably problematic for one reviewer during a medical emergency. Despite these issues, the positive experiences of numerous residents and families, who report improved well-being and enjoyment of life at the community, suggest these challenges do not overshadow the overall positive aspects of living there.
