"Community with caring staff, but geared toward high-care residents."

Me and my husband visited here to see if we could live there. We kinda thought it might be okay at first, but when we looked around, it seemed like the folks there needed more help than we did. Still, everything was really clean, which was nice. They have different levels of help depending on what you need. They showed us around everywhere, from the places where folks needed a lot of help to the ones where they needed less. It was clear they really cared about everyone. Seems like they're doing a good job.

"Not Ideal But Better Inside"

This place was far away and didn't look great from outside. But once inside, it seemed nicer. It felt crowded and I didn't feel comfortable.

"Excellent Memory Care with Supportive Staff and Clean Facility"

My mother recently moved to the memory care unit here, and I’m really happy with the care she’s getting. The staff are great at helping her with her nutrition and spend lots of one-on-one time with her. Every time I visit, the place is always clean and well-kept.

"Not Quite the Right Fit"

The place seemed nice, but I didn't think it would be a good match for my parents.

"A Good Value with Friendly Staff and Lots of Activities"

I toured this community and found it to be a good value. The staff were friendly and answered all our questions. We couldn’t see the food, but the activity room looked like it had a lot of things to do for everyone who wants to join in. I suggest that families check out this community to see everything it offers.

"Outdated facility lacking bedroom amenities, but strong memory care program."

Outdated facility, bedrooms lack bathrooms, good memory care with staff.

"Great staff but facility needs modernization!"

On our visit, it was obvious that this place could use some modern touches and repairs - it just looked really old. It was a bit inconvenient that the bedrooms didn't come with bathrooms, and you had to walk down the hall to use one. But, I definitely saw that they have an excellent memory care team.

"Clean and Friendly Community"

I visited this place, and it's great! They have parking for residents, welcome pets, offer lots of activities, and provide meals. The staff is fantastic.

"Nice, bright place with great care and many activities!"

This community is our second choice. We might move my mom here once her dementia gets worse because they offer a high level of care. The community is bigger and brighter than where she is now. They also have a lot of activities.

"Great care, but no two-bedroom options available."

This is a wonderful place for care, but they don’t have two-bedroom apartments.

"Beautiful place, but a bit pricey overall."

The facility was really beautiful, but it was also expensive. They really made an effort to create special experiences for each person. There were many religious activities, and they even brought in school kids for different events. We saw a junior high student interviewing one of the residents during our visit.

"Too Big for Mom: A Mixed Experience"

I liked it, but it was too large for my mom. Her Alzheimer's isn't too severe, but I worried she'd feel overwhelmed.

"Overwhelming Size for Mom with Alzheimer's"

I really liked this place, but it was too big for my mom. She's not in the late stages of Alzheimer's yet, but I was worried she might feel lost in such a large facility.
