Reviews

Residents and their families say:

The community received numerous positive comments about its helpful and friendly staff, clean and well-maintained premises, and the range of activities and amenities available to residents. Reviewers praised the community for its various amenities, including a pool table, movie theater room, shuttle services, and a well-kept outdoor area with shaded benches and a water fountain, creating a pleasant environment for residents to enjoy. The meals, served three times a day, were acknowledged for meeting basic nutritional requirements, even though some found the food to be pretty basic. The staff's attentiveness and the availability of services like basic physical therapy, haircuts, nail services, and the convenience of not having to worry about maintenance or yard work were highlighted as significant advantages of living in this community.
However, there were some criticisms mentioned by multiple reviewers, such as the quality of the food not always meeting expectations and concerns about the community being understaffed. A few reviewers also noted that the physical appearance of the facility could use some updating and that the rooms, though nice and roomy, were not as modern as some would prefer. Despite these drawbacks, many found the community's offerings, from its activities to the friendly atmosphere among residents and staff, to contribute positively to their or their loved ones’ experiences. There were also mentions of rooms being small and a desire for more space and activities, which suggests room for improvement in catering to the various needs and preferences of its residents.
