Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered praise for its attentive staff, comfortable accommodations, and a wide range of activities and care options that cater to residents' needs. Reviewers have highlighted the elegant dining options, with one mentioning how the dining room's ambiance with linen napkins, tablecloths, chandeliers, and the ability to order off the menu contributed to their positive impression of the community. The attentiveness of the staff has been frequently noted, with families feeling reassured by the regular updates on their loved ones' well-being. The presence of long-term employees at the community was seen positively, suggesting a supportive and stable environment for both residents and staff.
Despite the many positives, some criticisms were raised. The cost of living in this community is a concern mentioned by several reviewers, indicating that it may not be affordable for everyone. Additionally, the food quality did not meet some visitors' expectations, and there were comments about the rooms being small and the frequency of room cleaning being less than desired. The process of adjusting to the community's food and activities also appeared to be a challenge for a new resident, particularly one accustomed to different cultural culinary traditions.
In summary, the community is highly regarded for its quality of care, staff professionalism, and variety of services and amenities offered. It creates an inviting and engaging environment for its residents, fostering a sense of belonging and care. However, prospective residents and their families should consider the cost and discuss specific needs or concerns, such as room size, housekeeping frequency, and dietary preferences, to ensure the community is the right fit for them.
