Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive feedback for its clean and well-maintained facilities, friendly and accommodating staff, and a wide array of activities and amenities provided to residents. Reviewers have noted the satisfaction of residents with the care they receive, highlighting the quality of meals, which include a variety of options and seem to be well-regarded by the community members. The community's efforts to maintain a high level of organization and cleanliness, especially in light of COVID-19 precautions, have been positively acknowledged. Additionally, the staff's personal touch, demonstrated through knowing residents by name and engaging with them in activities, enhances the sense of community. The availability of different room sizes, attention to residents' dietary needs, and the offering of various therapies (physical, occupational, and speech therapy) also received positive remarks. The scenic views, secured environment for memory care residents, and the overall friendliness and helpfulness of the staff further contribute to the community's appeal.
However, there were some concerns mentioned across multiple reviews that merit attention. The issue of room sizes being somewhat cramped, especially the smaller ones, was a point of contention for some. Financial flexibility was appreciated by one reviewer but could imply that pricing might be a concern for potential residents. Concerns were raised about the longevity and stability of the staff and management, with one reviewer noting a high turnover rate that affected their confidence in the community's ability to provide consistent care. Similarly, there were complaints about the quality of food not meeting expectations, describing it as over-processed and lacking fresh options. These critiques, along with concerns about the facility's physical upkeep, including the need for carpet replacement and external painting, indicate areas where the community could focus on improvements. Despite these criticisms, many families were grateful for the level of care and the array of activities provided, with several expressing their contentment with having their loved ones reside there.
