Residents and their families say:

This community has received a range of feedback, predominantly highlighting the positive experiences of both residents and staff members. Many reviewers express satisfaction with the care and respect afforded to residents, often noting the friendly and welcoming atmosphere cultivated by dedicated staff. The community has recently undergone transformations under new management, aiming to improve both the quality of care and the facility itself. These changes include hiring empathetic and dedicated caregivers, improving dining services with a focus on quality and variety, and planning a complete facility remodel. The sense of family and community is repeatedly mentioned, with staff and residents forming close, supportive relationships that enhance the living and working environment.
Despite the many positive remarks, a few concerns have been voiced. Issues common to for-profit facilities such as worker shortages and overcrowding have been noted, although these do not seem to significantly impact the overall positive perception of the community.

The community has been praised for its clean rooms, great food, and the overall happiness and well-being of its residents. Staff members, from nurses to admissions coordinators, share a sense of pride in their work and the care they provide. The new management has been credited with bringing positive changes, creating a fun yet caring atmosphere, and integrating the community into a larger family. Despite some challenges, the commitment to quality care, respect for individual needs, and a nurturing environment are consistently emphasized in feedback from residents and staff alike.
