I'm in a rather newer facility, Copper Springs. However, we have people on hospice, which I was not aware of. We have had Covid here. The food tends to be cold, too. They keep the dining room rather chilly, so the food is generally cold. The appearance is OK. The concierge is very nice, lovely and very helpful. The apartments are OK, but I have a leak under the sink this morning. Also, the bathrooms and the showers are too small. The staff members are good. Normally, we had quite a few activities, but they cut back. We had traditional bingo, Wii bowling, Mexican train, and UNO. The cleanliness is OK, but the cost is expensive.

Copper Springs Retirement Community is a friendly place, they're very accommodating, but the main reason was the large room, which is what we're looking for. We will be moving there. They deliver the food to the rooms, so there's no contact, the food is good, but sometimes it isn't, and that's nothing new in any place. They have more activities than others, they keep people pretty busy, and they go out to a places; this was before the virus started.

Copper Springs was very nice. We originally thought we might live there. However, the apartment that we had chosen got rented, and so the place wasnt available for us. The one thing that we didnt care for very much was that the dining was all cafeteria style. Other than that, the place was lovely. The apartments were quite lovely too. We would be living there if that apartment hadnt been rented. They did a good job. They showed us everything. The staff member explained things very well. The meal was fine.

Thank you for the 5-star review! We are hopeful to see you again and wanted to let you know our Residents can enjoy Freedom Dining. Meals are available through the casual buffet as you mentioned, and we also offer a fully loaded salad bar, fine dining, room service and snack options as well. They are all choices included in the monthly fee. Feel free to stop back and we’ll show you those options as well. Again, thanks for the 5-star review!

I moved into Copper Springs Retirement Community and I recommend it highly. I have a one-bedroom apartment with a full-service kitchen, a bathroom, and housekeeping once weekly. We also get three meals a day and the food is extraordinary. The building itself is only two years old. The staff is very good, friendly, cheerful, and helpful.

I selected Copper Springs Retirement Community for my mother. It's beautiful, new, and very well-kept. She's been there a couple of weeks now, she tells me that all of her needs are being met, and she's making the transition very well. She's very comfortable there, which is great. The food is not the best I've eaten, but it's more than adequate, and three meals are included. If they don't like what's on the menu, they can call out, and get room service.

Copper Springs Retirement Community was OK. When I was walking the halls, it reminded me of a hotel. I didn't feel they had a friendly hall. They just reminded me of a hotel. It was all carpeted, and you had to put in big washer and dryer, and that's not me. The dining area was nice looking, but you have to get on a bus and go to amenities. The staff showed me a movie theater and an area where you could play cards and games. Well, the place was clean, the staff was very knowledgeable, and it was in the area I wanted to be.

Thank you for the review. We are pleased you found our staff knowledgeable, and our community clean and conveniently located. We wanted to be sure you understood that our bus services are optional and for appointments and outings off site. All our amenities and services are available in the community—on site--including three chef-prepared meals daily and a main street in the building housing a salon, fitness center, general store, resource center, and more. The washer and dryer hook ups are hidden in the closet and installation of a personal washer and dryer is optional. We offer several laundry rooms with free washing machine and dryer use as needed, if our residents prefer not to have them in each individual apartment home. Again, thank you for the visit and we are here if you need anything.
