"My aunt is a resident of The Oaks and we are very happy with the community. She tells people it is her home and that the staff are here family. Her only complaint is that her closet doesn't fit both her winter and summer clothes! The building is beautiful- like a ski lodge and everyone is very nice and caring. I would certainly recommend considering this place for a family member. "

"The Legacy Personal Care Home in Lawrenceville was very nice, very clean, and well-kept. The owner was very pleasant, and the residents seemed like they were happy. It's just a house without a sign, and we went to look for memory care for my mom. The residents were all in the same common area, which was the living room, and they were watching a game show. They also have bingo, and they do all kinds of other activities with them. I checked the dining area, which is a family living room style, and it seems appropriate and spacious."

"I looked at the assisted living and memory care at Brookdale South Lee Buford. The community seemed very nice and very homey and the people were quite friendly. I saw that they have activities in the building, people will come in with music and so forth, and they have exercises. They can go out for dinner on evenings with their bus. Overall, I was pleased and I had nothing to ask for. And all my questions were answered. It was a pleasant place and it was pleasant dealing with all the people. The building itself was clean, neat and homey."

"I toured The Landing of Winder. I liked it. It was an awesome facility and beautiful. My visit was very informative. It was actually wonderful. It's a beautiful facility and a very calming atmosphere. It's one of my top lists right now. It was an absolutely wonderful place. I liked the calming atmosphere there and the design of the layout for the residence. It's very simple. I think less is more, especially since it would not overwhelm my father. It would be easy for him to find his way around. They had a movie theater and an outside garden. Their dining halls are nice. They have one on each floor and their programs. They have an interactive program. It's some kind of computer where you can do memory games for family and residence. The executive director was outstanding, very informative, and pleasant."

"Dogwood Forest of Grayson was very modern. It's relatively new with wide open hallways, long corridors for the residents, and a lot of seating. When I walked in, I was very comfortable. You could hear people talking and they had activities that were going on. There was music, they were playing bingo, chess, and there were tables laid out for card games. They also have a physical/speech therapy room for exercise, which I liked. The dining area was very nice and very spacious. The rooms were very nice-sized."

"Heartis Suwanee was nice. It's kind of big. It has five buildings. The staff said they have 85 independent units and they're nice. I thought they were a little more expensive than others. They want $4900 for a two-bedroom, which I thought was a little high, but they're real nice and everybody there seems to be happy. It's well maintained, I could tell from my one-day visit. The staff was very nice. Emily was very prompt. The woman at the concierge was just as sweet as she could be. The minute I got there, I said I was looking for Emily and she called her and said, "She'd be right here." I did not eat the food, but the people that live there think the food is good. They got a nice-looking pool table and a room for that. It's kind of like an atrium and it overlooks the lobby."

"My mom is staying in Magnolia Senior Living Loganville's memory care. Everything was in good condition, clean, and looked like it was well-kept. I was pleased with it. I think the staff was caring. Everything that we wanted from them, as far as attention for my mom, they adequately provided. They have devotion every morning, and Bible study once a week. They have a garden where you can take your loved one out for fresh air or sit outside under a canopy and have private time with them, whether they're in a wheelchair or if they're able to walk alone. They always had tablecloths, cloth napkins, and silverware. Tables were always set for every meal and cleared right after the meal was completed by the residents. The food was balanced and tasty too. I don't have any complaints."

I saw the bedrooms and everything else, and the living room. It's very nice. I was very impressed. They treated me great. The rooms were very spacious. It was set up very nicely.

They spend quality time with each resident and since it is a small facility that makes it possible. It is kept neat and clean and all of the meals are delicious. It is obvious with the care they give that Beatrice and David are passionate about their care giving. I would highly recommend Wisdom Well Living if you are looking for care for your loved one. "

We will have an apartment with a porch that will overlook the swimming pool, and it's very picturesque. There's an exercise room that I'm interested in, and then they're doing other things, but I'm not sure what all they are. The staff is very professional, friendly, and accurate.

"Mom was at Oaks at Snellville for respite care. They were very kind and very nice to my mom. They took great care of her. The staff was all amazing. They had programs and stuff that they would do. So, she didn't just sit in a room all day long. They took them out and did stuff. She seemed very happy with it and very entertained. The food looked good and smelled good, too. The room she had was fully furnished. It was like a miniature apartment. They had multiple levels of activities. They had the cafeteria, the activity room, and the meeting room. It was a nice facility. The Oaks at Snellville was the same price as everybody else and for two weeks of respite care, it was almost $3,000, but that's the going price across the board. It is what it is. That's just how much they all cost and in my opinion, it's not them personally (the manager and the staff) that set the price. It's their corporation that owns them and all the other facilities in the country."

"My mother-in-law is a resident of The Joy Senior Living. We chose the place because of the cost, and it's close to where we live. Her apartment is very nice and one of the largest rooms we found when I was searching for a place for her. It is very clean and private. I've been there when she's eating a couple of times, and the food is always really good. They make all their food in their kitchen, and she eats well. The staff has been great. As for the activities, she's always doing something when we go by. I took care of her myself for the last year and a half, and it's not easy, so I appreciate what they're doing."

"I toured Antebellum James Burgess. It looked like someone's home. There was a lot of space. It wasn't all broken up where it would be difficult to navigate. It made sense to have that much openness for a facility where people could be wheeled around and furniture could be moved as needed. They had rearranged tables in the middle of the room so that all the residents could sit at the table and do an activity together. They didn't have all these separate tables or all these different rooms. It was a nice, big area, with a beautiful, big stone fireplace. It was very clean and neat, but also open to changes in activities and demands of the residents. The people were so nice, everybody was very nice. The assistant director was very knowledgeable, and she showed me all the different things I wanted. She even showed me all the things that we didn't need yet. So, as the needs progressed to something more or something different, she showed all of that as well, not just what I was there for, but what the future might hold for my family member."

"I would give Towne Club Windermere a five all the way around. That was my favorite place, but it is set up more like an apartment building. It's a tower and you had to get on an elevator, and Mom wasn't comfortable with that, but the rooms were fantastic. They were like regular-size apartments. They have a beautiful pool, a garden area, a movie room, a hair salon, and tour buses that would take you to the grocery stores and stuff. Any amenity that you could think of they had there. They did social hour; you come down in the main room and have appetizers and things like that. They go from independent living all the way to memory care. The staff during the tour was very, very attentive. She showed us several different sized rooms and she gave us the pricing. She made sure that we had all the meals. She let us taste the meals, which were very, very good. She took us around. She was very patient with Mom and Dad. We actually sat down around the pool with some of the people there, and we were able to talk to the residents there, ones that were in wheelchair and ones that were a little bit more independent. My concern then at that point in time was finding a place for both my Mom and Pop and Pop to be more active. The staff introduced Pop to some of the guys there that still play golf and things like that, so he really felt comfortable there. It was Mom that was not at the time, that's why we didn't do so. We actually were there three times and we signed a contract with them twice. Mom just didn't think she could do that elevator. She didn't feel comfortable with it."
