We will be moving into Fairwinds - Woodward Park. We got to have some introductions first, then we walked to the different rooms to see a comparison of the rooms, talked about the programming they had and access to it, and the outside activities they would have. The staff was very informative and if we had questions, they listened and then found answers. They explained it well. We didn't have time to eat, but they gave us coffee. We walked through quite a few places, saw the exercise rooms, just the general area, and everything was neat. The people who lived there were friendly. There was nothing that would make me pause saying this doesn't look good. The staff was excellent. We're still in contact with the original person who has followed up. Every question I asked, he had gotten back to me very quickly. It was clean.

Fairwinds-Woodward Park was really nice. It was primarily for people who were more active seniors and didn't need the assistance. It was a hustling, bustling place with lots of people coming and going. It seemed like a great place. They were very, very nice, and it was the number one place that we looked at. They actually had a really good offer and I liked the attentive staff. Watching so many people coming and going, I thought that that was a good indicator of people staying there. There were families coming and going and there were people visiting. It seemed like there was more activity going on. Most of the places we looked at, you don't have that sort of atmosphere because people are needing more assistance, but in this particular location it seemed like a nice place to be and to live for anybody. It's just that the other facility we visited offered more for the same base price. There were a lot of add ons at Fairwinds-Woodward Park. There were a lot of things that were not included in the base price.

Fairwinds-Woodward Park was amazing. The residents there seemed really happy. It seemed like an upscale hotel. It just felt, overall, much better. The rooms were beautiful, updated, nice-sized, and with storage. The staff was fantastic. Their food tasted good. They were really health conscious. It could use a little more seasoning and have a few more choices, but it was very healthy.

My mother will be moving into Fairwinds - Woodward Park. I have friends that have had family there and they were very happy with it. It's also five minutes from my home, so we're moving her closer to the family. They have a multitude of things, arts and crafts, gyms, and spas. I've done two tours actually and they've come highly recommended. We worked with the personnel and they seemed very accommodating and very professional. The staff was fantastic. Everybody there that we talked to said the food was good. They're remodeling. The one my mother will move into is 1250 square-foot, two-bedroom and it just got repainted and refreshed. It's beautiful. They did a good job. The whole facility seemed very well taken care of. They had different card tables, a pool table, arts and crafts, and a bar for happy hour. There were numerous things for her to do. They have a library upstairs and all kinds of good stuff. They have a gym, yoga classes, and a salon for the ladies to get their hair and nails done. They've got just about everything. Everybody we spoke with there was happy. One lady has been there six years and one lady seven years. They're all happy and they even have little vans that take them to the doctor. They take them out to bingo and the casino, and they can go shopping. They pretty much cover everything.

I thought that Fairwinds-Woodward Park was the best I've seen so far. They have very helpful people. They were very kind, very nice, and they were at their best. I toured their independent living and they have assisted living also. The woman was very helpful, and the people seemed happy and fine. And they gave me a lot of really good material to look over. The different thing about them is that the room had a kitchen while all the others had kitchenettes. Though I don't care since they provide 3 good meals a day and you're not doing much cooking anyway. One thing I liked about them is that they have an exercise gym and activities. They offer bible studies, you can do all kinds of exercises if you want to and they have a beauty salon. They had quite a few things that looked good. The staff that I saw were all very friendly and helpful.

I liked Fairwinds - Woodward Park. The room that they showed us was more updated and a little fancier, and a newer facility had been added on. The other parts of the facility looked nice, clean, and appealing. They were having some entertainment when we were there. There's somebody singing around the bar. It's a much larger facility than the others, and it's a little bit more appealing. They have independent living, and if you go to assisted living they do that in your room, and they have a flat fee for assisted living care.

My parent lives here. On the overall, it's a really nice well maintained facility. The employees are kind. However, one huge area of complaint for the residents is always the food!! The residents pay for it, but Fairwinds does NOT provide high quality, fresh food that is well prepared. An example is a Cobb Salad dinner entree which has NO dressing, no egg, no bacon, and no blue cheese (only a mozzarella like cheese product). The beef is tough and the chicken is flavorless. Breakfast is mostly starchy carbohydrates with few protein options. Since the residents are on lockdown, food is one of the very few things they have to look forward to and Fairwind's cheapens out and leaves the residents disappointed that they cannot get a good meal with all of their hard earned money. It is a shame they do not value the residents more, and put themselves in their shoes. Right now all of their amenities are closed down like their gym and movie room, so they are paying for amenities they cannot enjoy. A similar regular apartment would be about $2000 less, so the residents are paying roughly $2000 for their food with this low level, poor execution where they are clearly not putting in any effort. The kitchen staff may want to envision what they would like to eat when they are retired.

We chose Fairwinds Woodward Park for my brother-in-law. We love it; it is excellent. He has a beautiful apartment downstairs near the gym and the restaurant. We are very happy with it. So far, I have no complaints about the staff. The dining area is comfortable and nice. However, my brother-in-law eats all of his meals at the bistro. He prefers that more casual location, so he likes having that option. There is always something freshly cooked that smelled delicious when you walk in there. The activities are fabulous, but he just doesn't take advantage of them. The value for the price is fair. It is not cheap, but I don't think it is overpriced. He has a downstairs apartment with a patio, so it is more expensive, but we chose that because he has a couple of dogs. He is allowed to have those animals there and that's important to him.
