Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community garners ample praise for its clean, well-maintained rooms and facilities, as well as its wide array of activities and amenities, including a variety of exercise classes, dining options, and a heated pool. Reviewers consistently highlight the community's friendly, caring, and professional staff, alongside its efforts to provide a comfortable and vibrant living environment. Residents and their families report feeling welcomed and quickly becoming part of a close-knit community, underlining the abundance of social opportunities and the quality of meals available. The option to personalize apartments and the comprehensive maintenance of both the interiors and the grounds contribute to the satisfaction expressed by many.
However, a few points of critique emerge amidst the commendations. Notably, the late disclosure of a $5,000 buy-in fee caught some prospective residents by surprise, casting a shadow on the otherwise transparent process and communication praised by others. Additionally, despite a positive view on transportation to places like the grocery store or for medical appointments, there's a voiced desire for more outings and enhanced transportation services. Some reviewers also noted a wish for more activities, though this concern seems partially alleviated by ongoing efforts to improve the roster of events and the management of activities. Room size and specifically closet space were expressed concerns from a minority, indicating that while many find the living spaces adequate and nice, preferences vary greatly among potential and current residents.
