Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered much praise for its caring and professional staff, cleanliness, and the overall quality of care provided to residents. Many reviews highlight the genuine love and dedication of the staff towards the residents, fostering a family-like atmosphere. Reviewers consistently mention the facility's effort in keeping family members informed and involved, especially during challenging times like the COVID-19 pandemic. The community is not only appreciated for its attentive care but also for its activities and encouragement of family interaction, even for those living far away. The presence of fun activities and the effort to ensure residents spend time outdoors on beautiful days are particularly appreciated.
However, not everything mentioned is positive. A few negatives included dissatisfaction with certain services, with one reviewer suggesting the community might not be the best choice for smokers. Despite these few criticisms, the overwhelming sentiment from both families and staff points to a deeply caring and well-maintained environment. The effort to accommodate and work with schedules, as well as the specific recognition of staff members for their knowledge, energy, and kindness, underscores the community’s commitment to its residents and their families. Noticeably, the community’s ability to evoke strong feelings of safety, trust, and gratitude from those who have experienced their service firsthand dominates the feedback.
