We will be moving in. They had a nice two-bedroom. The gentleman that presented everything was very, very helpful. I like the layout and the friendliness of anybody that we met. It was a very good experience. They were very thorough. I have not tried their food, but I've heard that it's good. They have a salon. They do not have a gym, but they have a scheduled workout every morning at 10 o'clock. They have a little cafe place where they have an oven, and you can bake cookies if you want to. I've been there a couple of times where activities have been going on, and people have participated.

We chose it for my mom and so far we like it; it's nice. She's in the assisted living. Her room is nice, with a small bedroom, a little living room area, kitchen area, and it's a good size. They have activities and all kinds of stuff going on all the time. The staff is good, they're taking care of her.

We'll be moving my mom here. The layout is very easy to navigate. It's a beautiful facility, very well-decorated, cared for, clean, and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The dining area is very nicely-decorated with an executive chef there who takes a lot of pride in the food he prepares. The dining room is very elegant, warm and inviting. They have many activities, like a Christmas Party, tea in the afternoon with the director of the facility, movie nights, chair exercise every day, different games, and outings. There's many to choose from.

It was clean. The rooms were smaller. My concern would have been getting my parents down to the dining area because the rooms were pretty far away from the dining area. They sent me home with a wonderful chocolate chip muffin. The staff was very efficient.

The decor in the rooms was a little bit different. The person who gave the tour understood the needs that I have. The rooms were exactly what were needed. There was a calendar of activities and posting. The person who helped me was excellent. The setting in general was excellent, and I liked the way people were interacting. There seemed to be something for everyone.

My mom was here. The rooms were a lot bigger than the ones at another place we had visited. The facility was small and intimate. However, they didn’t accept Medicaid. They didn’t have as many activities, but it was a very nice place. I would definitely recommend them. They treated us well.
