Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive feedback for its comfortable living arrangements, impressive grounds, and a wide range of activities that cater to both physical and mental wellness. Residents and visitors alike praise the environment's cleanliness and beautiful setting, which includes amenities such as cafes, pools, exercise areas, a pharmacy, and even a chapel. The availability of different living styles, from independent living to nursing home care, has been a critical factor in the decisions of many to make this place their home. The activities, including wellness competitions and social events like car shows, are highlighted positively, contributing to a vibrant community life. The professional and friendly staff, including those in the activities department, wellness, nursing, and culinary services, have been commended for their dedication and capability. The engagement between residents and staff is described as pleasant, with a sense of mutual care and camaraderie.
However, there are notable concerns regarding customer service, particularly at the check-in area, where guests felt ignored, suggesting a need for improved customer service training. The quality of food has been mentioned as an area that could see improvement. Concerns about the lack of adherence to COVID-19 safety protocols by staff and instances where staff members were overheard discussing residents inappropriately are troubling, underscoring a need for better staff behavior standards and training. These criticisms point to areas where the community could refine its services, although they are countered significantly by the overall positive experiences reported.
