I was well received at Brookdale Lake Tavares. There was a welcome sign as I entered the reception desk. They provided me with some water as a refreshment. The director who was going to do the tour came down. However, I thought the tour was rather brief and I was not seated in an office so I would have an opportunity to ask questions. The tour took no more than 10 minutes. They thanked me for coming and that was pretty much it. The lady who did the tour knew that I was expected at a certain time. I arrived a little bit early because I hadn't been to the community before and when she came down, she said that she was on a conference call, I believe, or a Zoom call, and I guess I interrupted that. She was very professional, but somewhat on the brief side, maybe a tiny bit abrupt. I spoke with some of the residents there and they seemed to be happy with the facility. They showed me a room and it was very nicely appointed and very cheerful. All the amenities that were there would work well for my husband or for anyone who was staying there. It was very nicely presented, at least the model room was, so I'm assuming that his room would be similar to that if we had selected that facility. The dining area was more formal. I was on another level looking down. It looked like they had tablecloths and cloth napkins. It was also very nicely presented. I left feeling that it was an OK place. Everything seemed to be professionally maintained as far as the exterior and the interior.

I toured Brookdale Lake Tavares, and I liked it. First thing, the personality of the person that was in charge was good for her position. She showed me the place upstairs and downstairs as much as I was willing to walk. For me, that makes the place. If you don't like or don't feel comfortable with a person that I have to see maybe daily or at least weekly, it's not a good place for me. My main thing here is that the person in charge was really good. The rooms were very nice and well-kept. I met the residents, and they were friendly. The dining area was clean and well set up. They had different games and they had movie nights. They had gone outside for activities, like sightseeing and visiting different places in the area, which I like very much. Counting the age of the place, deterioration is already there.

I particularly didn't care for Brookdale Lake Tavares because it was like an apartment complex, and it was kind of dark inside. The rooms were OK. They were older, but they were OK. There's a couple of people who smoked outside and they go back into the room, so I told them that I don't want my mother going into a room that has people that smoke outside because their clothes would smell like smoke. The front office staff was knowledgeable, but I didn't get a chance to talk to any of the sub-staff like the nurse's aides and the nurses. They were very knowledgeable and cordial. They just showed me the rooms. They showed me what they have. They had an entertainment area where they do bingo, checkers, and cards, and you can go in there. There's a quiet area as they call it, and you can go put puzzles together, and there are games and stuff for them to do there. They also have an activity director.

My mom moved into Brookdale Lake Tavares. The apartments were very nice, they’re very roomy, bigger than most places, and very well-kept. I’m very happy with the facility. It’s not as big, only three-stories. The price had a lot to do with it, and it’s close to where I live. They have bus trips that go here and there, my mother doesn’t participate, but they have quite a bit going on. The staff has been very helpful, and I don’t have any complaints.

We liked Brookdale Lake Tavares very much. The apartments had a bedroom, a big walk-in closet, a living room, a dining area, and a little kitchenette. They were nice. You didn't feel like you were just stuck in a room. It's had a nice balcony too. They have entertainment, music, church on Sunday, bible study, bingo, and cards. The dining area was beautiful and we met the chef. The food was very good. They've got a lovely library and they have an outdoor patio that looks out on the lake. You can walk near the lake and sit on the benches down there. It's just beautiful. They have a community room and a computer room. The staff was wonderful. It's beautiful on the outside and very nice on the inside.

Brookdale Lake Tavares was very good for my mother. She would be happy there, but it was too much money. The staff was very good, very friendly, and seemed to be very concerned about the patients.

My mother has been in Brookdale Lake Tavares for at least four or five weeks now. She gets her meds, and occasionally they help her dress. They come by all the time for her physical therapy. The staff seems to be pretty knowledgeable. I am impressed with the evening nurse, who is very good. We are very impressed with the sizeable rooms. My mom's location is great. It is not far for her to go and eat. We are impressed with what they offer for amenities, like a library and computers. It has a nice foyer to sit outside. I will highly recommend it to others. They have spacious one-bedroom apartments.

I have been at Brookdale Lake Tavares for a long time. I am quite happy here, but I am having problems with money. The food is OK. We have exercises every morning, including a half an hour of stretching and bending six days a week. We also have bingo and iPad explorations, like getting familiar with it. I have an apartment with a tiny kitchen, a bathroom, a bedroom, and a living room.

My 93 year old mother was in this facility for about a year and 1/2. Her room was infested with roaches, and I don't believe it had a thorough cleaning the whole time she was there. We have tried to contact Kevin, the facility coordinator, and he will not return our clothes. When Mom left, my sister counted 30 dead roaches and a year and 1/2 worth of filth under her bed. Don't send your loved one here.

Brookdale is a high rise tall building. They took me on a tour and had lunch. The rooms were more of apartment type; it has a bedroom and a bathroom, and I said I can’t live in there. They have nice activities that I would be interested in. I saw the exercise room, and there were only a couple of machines. I wanted the ground floor. With me in a wheelchair, I can’t walk, and the kitchen was so small.

Brookdale Lake Tavares is a very clean and modern place. The rooms are of the best I’ve seen but are a little pricey. I know they have a bus that takes the residents out on trips. The residents and staff seem very nice. They have a gym and do physical therapy.

The people at Brookdale Lake Tavares were very friendly. The rooms were really nice. I believe this would be my first choice; plus I have a friend that lives there who has already checked on the occupants and says they're always very nice. My friend never ever complains about the food, which is unbelievable. The dining area was pretty, and it overlooked the lake. It made it homey and nice.

Brookdale Lake Tavares was nice, but it was too expensive. The staff seemed very nice; however, I didn't meet very many of them. The rooms were very pretty, but they were very small.

Mom is at Brookdale Lake Tavares. The staff is excellent and very friendly. They always have a smile on their face. Their rooms are of good size, but I think they need updating. Their food is mediocre; it's not as good as the other place that she was. At the beginning she didn’t like it so much, but she is getting used to it. They have several activities, and I am very happy with the number of activities that they offer. They have exercise class, and they take them out to lunch one a month.

Brookdale Lake Tavares was very nice. It had great views, and it was very clean. The rooms were very big. I like it a lot. The staff was very conscientious. They're very knowledgeable. Dining was great. There was a beautiful view in the dining room. It had a porch on the back looking over a lake. They have a menu with options. They also had all kinds of activities. They had transportation to a grocery store and to Wal-Mart, and also they had singers that come in.

I went to Brookdale Lake Tavares, and they have extremely small rooms. They have a tiny refrigerator. With their activities, I know they have bingo every day. They also have an elderly gentleman that comes in all the time that sings for about an hour and a half.

The appearance on the outside of Grand Court Tavares didn't impress me. It looked like an apartment building. It was made out of brick and was three stories high. Then, I walked through the door and everything changed. Although they had a large dining room, the people who lived there had a council and were having a meeting going on while I was there. They were very vocal about what they would like to happen, do, and eat in that community. I think that's very nice. After that, I was taken up to the second floor. They had a lovely sitting area there that if you look down, you would be looking down the dining area. Adjoining that area was a library and another small room where people could watch tv. They also have a computer. On the second floor was a certified physical therapy department. They also had their own laundromat where you could to do your own laundry. The staff could do it for you if you pay extra. If you have the money, it was a nice place to live in.

To me, Grand Court Tavares is an impressive place. This was the first facility that we visited. It's big with big grounds that you could become involved in without leaving the premises. I had lunch there and it was very good. I find the whole atmosphere excellent and perfect.

My father is in Grand Court Tavares. I love the facility. It is very nice and clean. They have been very accommodating in helping out with my father, and they bent over backwards to make the transition easy for him. I really am impressed with the room because most of them are really small, but this one has a bedroom, a living room, a full bath, large closet, storage space, and a small kitchenette.

I've looked at some places before deciding on Grand Court Tavares for my mom; it's a good facility. She has her good days and bad days, but I think it has something to do with her current mental situation and her age. It's strictly assisted living, but they do have 24-hour nursing care and minor rehab. She has a one-bedroom apartment with a kitchenette. I'm satisfied with where my mom is at right now.

My grandmother( who is extremely picky) went there and at first she gave me a lot if resistance but that was to be expected because older people don't appreciate change. After a while of settling in, she liked it a lot.. I am very hands on with her.. I am there at least weekly if not twice a week and the staff are all very caring and seem like they truly and genuinely care about the residents .. I love it there !!! As long as she can afford to stay there, I will keep her there.. It is just that as her needs increase the type of " a-la-carte pricing gets very high .. Such as showering , cutting up her food for her, or seeing to it that she takes her meds .. And I would say that is the ONLY downfall .. If it even is one because I'm sure it is like that everywhere

The place is so close to where we live and it was more on our price range. We couldn't afford anywhere else. We went to a whole bunch of different places and they were just more than my mom has money for. The money was the big thing plus it was close. The rest are farther away and the ones that weren't on the villages and stuff are way out of our price range. This one here has suited everything we needed. Not that she doesn't like it because she's living in a big house but other than that, things look pretty good. She's 94 years old so you're not gonna please her very often. The facility is nice. It's very clean. The people are nice as you can find and they do everything they can to please us. I already have recommended this facility to my nurse and she already had three people lined up.
