"Friendly and Helpful Assisted Living with Fun Activities"
I would tell others to consider The Phoenix at Johnson Ferry. The people there were nice and helpful. They assisted us with everything we needed when we moved in. We really enjoyed all the events and crafts they organized for the residents.

"Excellent care and staff with great rooms and balcony view"
I was nervous about putting my father in a care home, even though it was the best choice for his dementia. After visiting Dogwood Forrest, no other place matched up. He’s been there for over 2 years and loves it, and so do we. The staff is always helpful and keeps us updated. The meals and entertainment are great, and his room is nice. We even got a room with a balcony overlooking the garden.

"Nice Religious Facility, but Rooms and Kitchens Too Small"
This is a pretty good place with a religious focus, which I personally enjoy. The problem is the rooms are too tiny for what my folks need, and they only have tiny kitchens.

"Great community with caring staff and good food!"
This is a newer community that is well maintained. The food is tasty, and there are many choices. The staff encourage Mom to join in daily activities. We have good communication with the staff, who are nice, attentive, and helpful. I am very happy with this community, and I would recommend it.

"A Helpful Conversation"
The folks here were friendly. Although I couldn’t visit in person, I chatted with a knowledgeable staff member who addressed all my questions and concerns. Unfortunately, the cost was too high.

"It's a Good Fit!"
We're happy with this place. Mom's doing well and enjoying herself. They could improve the activities, but she likes the food, and it's convenient for visits.

"Ideal Home for My Loved One"
I talked to from 'A Place for Mom' and she really listened. She recommended Dogwood Forest of Acworth, and it was exactly what I needed. It's close by (just 5.3 miles), beautiful, and has amazing staff. The managers and memory care team are top-notch, patient, and caring. They truly love their jobs! The food is good too, which can be tough with dietary restrictions.

"Warm and Caring Community for Loved Ones"
The community is spotless and well-maintained. The staff are super friendly and always greet us by name. They know my father-in-law's story and give him top-notch care. The food is delicious, fresh, and served in just the right amounts. They encourage my dad to join in on the fun activities too! I highly recommend this place because it feels like home - they truly care about each resident

"Living Nightmare: Don't Trust Your Loved Ones to This Facility"
This place is a nightmare. I wouldn't wish upon anyone to trust their family members in this facility's hands. It's absolutely shocking. Don't be deceived by their so-called "nursing staff" - they are anything but professional. The staff is patronizing and never picks up the phone. I've tried contacting them for 3 consecutive days without any luck. The common areas might seem decent, but don't be tricked into eating at the cafeteria. The dinner is pathetic, a piece of lettuce with cottage cheese and a peach.

"Avoid Dogwood Forest: Unkind Staff and No Compassion Here"
Dogwood Forest's employees are mean and unkind. If your family member gets ill, they don't want them coming back to their place. They would quickly suggest nursing homes or even the streets before welcoming them back. They absolutely lack compassion. We're on the hunt for a better place for our dad.

"Activities and Care That Shine Brightly"
They always have fun activities going on, which is great. There's also a hair salon right there. The room design is ideal for people with dementia, like my loved one. It’s truly perfect!

Great people, nice location, and a wonderful facility, but it’s a bit too pricey for our budget.

"They Really Do Care Here!"
This is a brand new facility, so it’s naturally fresh and clean. It’s also open, spacious, and inviting. Not only is it beautiful for residents, but it makes visiting a pleasure. My husband moved into the memory care unit last week. He was welcomed at the front door by three staff members and taken to "Inspirations." The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and truly concerned about the residents. The director went over my husband’s needs with me to ensure his care is understood. They take very good care of him while preserving his dignity. Each resident in Inspirations has special needs, which the staff is trained to handle. I’ve been told the food is great too!

"Beautiful New Facility with Great Memory Care Options"
I toured on 7/18 with April Johnson. The facility is beautiful and new, with three floors that have 68 apartments and 24 for memory care. I loved it!
