Residents and their families say:

This community has received a multitude of positive feedback for its cleanliness, caring and friendly staff, and the array of activities available for residents. Many reviewers highlighted the exceptional care their loved ones received, noting the staff's willingness to go above and beyond in their duties.

The community is praised for not only its aesthetic appeal but also for the personal touch and respect with which staff treat the residents, making it feel less like an institution and more like a home.
However, there were a few negative comments noted across the reviews.

Additionally, one comment mentioned the low pay for certain positions, which could impact staff satisfaction and retention.
