Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive feedback for its beautiful grounds, well-maintained environment, and caring staff, making residents and their families feel at home. Reviewers have highlighted the warm, comfortable, and intimate atmosphere that allows residents, especially those with dementia and Alzheimer’s, to flourish due to structured and activity-filled settings. The staff’s attentiveness, professionalism, and dedication to making everyone feel cared for have been consistently praised. Many have expressed satisfaction with the provision of private rooms, the variety of daily activities, and the ability of the community to facilitate a sense of family among residents and staff. The food and cleanliness of the facilities also received commendations.
However, there were some concerns regarding the rate increases and loss of personal items, like hearing aids, which have caused distress to some. A few reviewers have pointed out the lack of COVID testing among employees and highlighted architectural barriers that could pose risks to residents prone to falls. Others felt that the community could improve its organization in common areas and offer more activity options to cater to the varied interests of the residents. Despite these issues, the testimonials generally reflect a community that goes above and beyond in caring for its residents, with many reviewers recommending it to others looking for a compassionate and engaging environment for their loved ones.
