Heron Point of Chestertown

I visited this facility several times with my school to give holiday performances for the residents. The facility was very large, and seemed to be very luxurious and ornately decorated. There seemed to be a large, attentive staff, and all of the residents seemed to be in good spirits. The place really reminded me more of a mansion than an assisted living facility. I am sure the residents paid a fairly hefty sum to live in the facility, but from what I saw they definitely got what they paid for. Everything was very clean and well kept. There was evidence of several other school groups visiting the facility as well, so it seemed like the residents had a steady stream of visitors. I visited several other Assisted Living facilities in the area with my school group, and Heron Point was by far the most impressive.

The location is beautiful and the facility and its ambiance is refined. There are a good amount of things to do--gardening, indoor pool, fitness center. The food at the Skipjack Cafe is pretty good, and the nature trails are peaceful. There are some functions throughout the year, such as a gingerbread house display, which is great for visitors and townies to come and see. The library is great. The only problem is the pricing, but then, there are quite a fair of bonuses to living here. The help is generally good, but may vary from time to time. Pets are also allowed, which is fantastic.
