This community has garnered a range of feedback, with several positive attributes being highlighted by the review writers. Many appreciate the generous amenities such as swimming pools, libraries, chapels, exercise areas, and in some cases, discounts for retired military personnel. The grounds are frequently described as beautiful, with landscaping that includes ponds and fountains offering serene spots for relaxation or social interaction. Reviewers often highlight the cleanliness and modern facilities of the community, including spacious apartments and the wealth of activities available to residents, from painting classes to musical programs and beyond. The community's staff is frequently praised for their friendliness, attentiveness, and the level of care they provide, which has been particularly noted during challenging times such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The efforts to keep residents engaged through varied dining options, in-house exercises, and events have been well-received, contributing to a sense of community and well-being.
However, there are notable concerns among reviewers that temper the positive remarks. The size and layout of the community can present challenges for some residents, especially in terms of mobility and the convenience of accessing amenities, with one review mentioning the lengthy walks required to reach different facilities. Issues with communication, particularly regarding the difficulty of reaching staff by phone, have been a source of frustration for multiple reviewers. This issue seems to extend across different aspects of the community's operation, affecting not only potential new residents but those with family members already living in the community. Additionally, while the dining experiences are sometimes praised, there are critiques regarding the quality and variety of the food offered, with some residents feeling that their feedback on this issue is not adequately addressed.
In summary, while there are many aspects of this community that residents and their families appreciate—from the well-maintained and aesthetically pleasing grounds to the variety of amenities and the caring staff—there are areas where improvement is desired. Mobility within the vast community can be challenging for some, and consistent issues with communication have marred the experience for others. The dining experience, while occasionally lauded, has also been a point of contention for those expecting more from the community's culinary offerings. Despite these concerns, the sense of community and the array of activities and facilities available seem to contribute significantly to resident satisfaction.
