Residents and their families say:

This community has received many positive comments from its residents and their families, highlighting a variety of aspects that contribute greatly to the quality of life within the community. Many reviewers praise the cleanliness, organization, pet-friendliness, and the extensive range of activities and amenities such as walking trails, libraries, exercise areas, live music programs, a movie theater, and the dining facilities. The staff at this community has been repeatedly commended for being engaging, knowledgeable, accommodating, and expressing genuine care toward the residents. The community has been described as a friendly environment where newcomers can easily make new friends and participate in numerous social activities, which is particularly beneficial for seniors. The diverse living options, from independent living to assisted care and memory care, are well-regarded, allowing for a smooth transition as residents' needs change over time. The community's location has been appreciated for its convenience and scenic beauty, adding to the residents' satisfaction.
However, there are a few concerns mentioned by the reviewers. Though not widely reported, some negative aspects include the cost being on the higher side, creating barriers for some potential residents. There has been an instance of poor communication and dissatisfaction with respite care services, but these seem to be isolated concerns rather than a widespread issue within the community. There were mentions of areas in need of updates, though it's acknowledged that improvements are underway. Some residents have also noted that food quality can be hit or miss, and there have been situations where staffing communication and certain administrative processes could be improved. Despite these drawbacks, the overwhelming consensus among residents and their families appears to lean strongly toward satisfaction with life at The Highlands, commending its welcoming atmosphere, varied living options, and the exemplary staff.
