My mother is living in Columbia Cottage. It is nicer than the rest and has a kitchenette with a microwave and fridge in the room. Our overall experience has been good. I am pleased with the staff. They have activities like bingo, wine time, and sometimes painting. They have a hair salon where they do their nails. The food is wonderful and served three times a day. They have 30 or more tables with four chairs to a table and a big dining room table for a family. Everybody seems to be really nice. I do not have any problems. My only complaint is that she has had a couple of falls and nobody notified me.

Columbia Cottage was clean, and the people were professional. They were willing to work with me and let my mother and step-father stay together in one room once they move in next week. The room is fine and big enough for both of them, so they will be able to keep some of their stuff.

What I like about Columbia Cottage Mountain Brook Living is the living conditions of the place. It's new and close in proximity of where we live. They have exercise, games, and arts and crafts.

I have visited 13 places and Columbia Cottage is the first one that the minute I walked in, I knew is the right place for my sister. The facility is very clean, very homey, and very well decorated. Their staff is incredible. They really take personal interest and really work with the families. I am very impressed and I highly recommend it. This place is excellent.
