Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community is frequently praised for its beautiful campus, clean and well-appointed living spaces, and a wide array of activities and amenities that enrich the daily lives of its residents. The staff, from nursing to maintenance and culinary, have been described as very caring, kind, and professional, with a genuine concern for solving residents' problems. Many reviewers highlighted the friendliness and courteous nature of the staff, contributing to a family-like atmosphere. Residents enjoy independence from owning and maintaining a home, with services such as housekeeping, yard work, maintenance, and dining options that offer fresh, tasty food served by a competent waitstaff. The range of entertaining options and exercise programs, alongside a wellness center that has received national recognition, further adds to the appeal of living here. Moreover, during the COVID-19 pandemic, residents felt safe due to the community's effective safety measures.
However, some reviewers have raised concerns about the quality of care and administrative issues, specifically when transitioning from assisted living to more advanced medical care. There were complaints about a lack of help in resolving issues within the facility's guidelines, with some stories of unhelpful interactions with nursing management and a general sense that complaints were not adequately addressed by the higher management. Additionally, the food service received criticism for unseasoned, small-portioned, and lukewarm meals, attributed to staffing issues within the food service department. Some families faced challenges regarding the cost, especially when care needs increased, leading to concerns about the value for money. Despite these issues, the positive experiences of many residents and their families, alongside commendation for the community's aesthetics and the wide range of facilities and activities offered, present a largely favorable view of this community.
