Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered considerable praise from residents and their families, as well as professionals in the senior living industry. Many appreciate the smooth transition process into the community, highlighted by effective communication and personalized attention from the staff. Residents enjoy a variety of amenities, including chef-prepared meals, fitness classes, gardening, and cultural outings, which cater to a broad range of interests and needs. The facility itself is described as beautiful and immaculately maintained, creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for residents. A unique feature appreciated by many is the ability to move into an Independent Living apartment and remain in the same apartment even as care needs increase, thanks to all Independent Living Apartments being licensed for Assisted Living.
However, there are some concerns and criticisms brought forward by a few reviewers. One repeated issue is with the level of care for residents who require more than minimal assistance, suggesting that the community may not be well-suited for those with significant mobility or health issues. There are also mentions of administrative and communication delays, particularly related to the corporate office's decisions. Despite these concerns, the overarching sentiment is highly positive, with many attesting to the quality of life, excellent food, engaging activities, and the caring, professional staff. The sense of community and family-like atmosphere is frequently highlighted, with many expressing gratitude and satisfaction with their decision to choose this community for themselves or their loved ones.
