Residents and their families say:

This community has been praised for its compassionate and attentive staff, with many noting the high level of care and patience shown towards residents, including those with advanced dementia and other health challenges. Reviewers have highlighted the homey and friendly atmosphere that makes residents and their families feel welcomed and supported. The variety of activities, including exercise programs and crafts, as well as the quality of the homemade food, were aspects frequently commended, contributing to the positive experience for both residents and their visiting families. The cleanliness of the facility, both inside and out, along with its convenient location and good maintenance, was also appreciated. The availability of spacious rooms and the ability to accommodate emergency needs effectively were noted as particular strengths.
However, concerns were raised regarding the staffing levels, with some reviewers perceiving them as insufficient, which, in some instances, led to dissatisfaction with the level of care provided. This was coupled with mixed feedback about the training and competence of some caregivers, indicating variability in the quality of care. The issue of cost was mentioned, with some finding the pricing higher than expected or experiencing unexpected increases after moving in. Furthermore, while many families found the community to be a perfect fit for their loved ones, others felt that it was not the right match for their specific needs or faced challenges with availability due to the limited capacity. Despite these concerns, the community's commitment to providing a caring and nurturing environment was consistently acknowledged.
