Residents and their families say:

This community has received a range of feedback from visitors and family members, with many highlighting the compassionate and friendly nature of the staff. Family members have praised the facility for its cleanliness, the variety of activities provided, and the quality of the meals that encourage social interaction among residents. The rooms are noted to be spacious and well-furnished, offering both privacy and the opportunity for social engagement. Several reviewers have expressed satisfaction with their loved one's safety and the caring environment provided by the community.
However, some reviewers have noted areas for improvement, including the need for more activities, particularly in the evening, and aspects of the intake process which could be streamlined. Concerns about the size of the community being too large and impersonal were also noted by a couple of reviewers. Issues specific to individual cases, such as the timing of showers and housekeeping standards, were mentioned but seem to be isolated incidents. Despite the higher price point, many reviewers find the quality of care and facilities to be worth the cost, and they appreciate the efforts made to ensure their loved ones are comfortable and well-cared for.
