"From the moment we walked into Atria Woodbriar Park, we felt a sense of peace and comfort. Joanne greeted us with genuine warmth, and her attentiveness (as well as all the other Atria staff) has remained consistent. The environment is clean, beautifully maintained, and full of life — with residents engaging in activities, sharing meals, and enjoying the lovely outdoor spaces. What truly sets Atria Woodbriar Park apart is the way they balance independence with compassionate care. My father-in-law has found a renewed sense of purpose here, making friends and participating in events that brings joy to his days. We couldn’t be more grateful for the peace of mind this community has given our family. It’s not just a facility — it’s a home."

"Benchmark Senior Living at Plymouth Crossings is reasonably priced and small. There's 24-hours care there if my mom gets up at night and goes to the bathroom and stuff like that. Some of the others were just too big and they weren't going around to check on everybody. She's in assisted living. They help her with medications, bathing, and if she needs to get up they'll come and assist her to the bathroom. We like that she lives downstairs and is just down the hall. It's not like a huge building where she has to walk a lot. They cater to her and they have a lot of activities. The staff is also excellent. Her room is nice though it's not the biggest thing. She has a roommate on the other side and they share a kitchenette and a bathroom. She has her own separate room and they share a kitchen area with tables and chairs and a little refrigerator. They have music every Friday or Thursday night. They have a cocktail hour too, I just don't know if they're real cocktails or that's maybe wine. The location is easy to get to from the highway. They have transportation back and forth to doctor's appointments. They have a little minivan for any doctor's appointment that would require her to leave the facility. They have an in-house doctor too and they do all her medication twice a day. She says the food is really good. They have snacks and coffee that you can get whenever you want. Now because of COVID, you can go visit, but you have to stay contained. She goes to the dining area, but she can't have her husband go in there. They serve them lunch, it's a big meal, at the table. Whoever walks in, they take a temperature. This place is a lot cheaper than a lot of the other ones."

"Larry was our tour guide at Thirwood Place and he was very well informed and answered all our questions. We toured one apartment and the amenities and the apartment were all topnotch. Especially impressive was the menu and the options for food throughout the day. They have a little cafe and a little pub next to the restaurant. The place gives you ten guests for free throughout the month. It was a very welcoming place for family and friends, which my friend has a lot of here. She likes the outdoor space and the patios on the first floor. Although the Thirwood grounds are beautiful, we did not see patios that had good views, and the decks were kind of small, but they have a greenhouse where she can put her winter plants. In general, the place was impressive."

"If you have an opportunity to place a family member at Maplewood, or if you are considering it, jump at the chance. You won't regret it. Working with the lead staff has been excellent. They answer all my questions, whether via e-mail or phone. My mother suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm in Aug 2022, and given what she went through it was unclear when (and if) she'd be able to move there. They kept in communication with me as I made decisions that were best for her, so that when my mom was ready to leave rehab four months later, they knew the situation and had the perfect room for her. Having looked at many facilities of all stripes, Maplewood at Brewster is one of the nicest of all. And it still proves true six months after my mom moved in: gorgeous and clean setting, excellent food (seriously), friendly and caring staff throughout, fun and abundant activities (many holiday themed, music groups, movies in the theatre, etc.), exercise classes including aqua classes which my mom takes full advantage of, transportation to take residents to doctor's appointments/groceries/CVS/outings...it's really ideal. And there is a wellness center on site for my mom when she needs something. I sleep much better knowing that my mom is at Maplewood, and feel a huge sense of gratitude that things worked out for her to live there."

"Atria Fairhaven was lovely. I would have moved my aunt there in a minute if she would have gone. It was clean and bright and it smelled nice. I looked at an apartment on the first floor, and it was great. I looked at an apartment on the third floor, and it was great. The layout was good. It wasn't too far for people to get from one spot to another. I didn't meet that many people, but the people that I met were welcoming."

"Whaler's Cove Assisted Living was a great place. It's beautiful. It used to be a department store a long time ago. It's very beautiful inside, and it's got elevators to everywhere. You bring your own furniture and you decorate your apartment the way you want it to be. It's kind of an extension of where you came from. It's a little expensive. One of the things that I thought was good is that they have a sliding scale and you can kind of negotiate the prices depending on what your needs are. The staff during the tour was terrific. She explained everything. She showed me everything. She introduced me to one of the residents so that we could get to see an apartment. I think the bedrooms in those apartments are bigger than my bedroom at home. It was a busy day for them. She had some things going on in the auditorium that she had to be at, so there wasn't time to do anything like eat there. It looked very clean. There's a big reception area when you go in the front door. It was very quiet there, except people were going up and down the elevators. It was a Saturday when I went there, so some of them were probably going off to spend some time with family and stuff like that. They have a lot of activities there. They have a big auditorium that shows movies and a full-size movie screen like you'd see in a theater. They have a library. They have a lot of good things. One of the things that impressed me about it is the fact that it's a very active community."

"My mom had fallen and ended up in the hospital. We realized that she could not live at home any longer. We visited many assisted living facilities. Wingate had everything as far as rehab, memory care, nursing home. The rooms are gorgeous over looking the lake and garden. She went from rehab to assisted living. She was not easy to deal with but the staff was able to win her over. My moms health declined quickly. The staff went above and beyond to make my mom and our family comfortable. If I ever had any concerns they always addressed it and never dismissed it. My mom passed in March 2022. I have zero regrets and would recommend Wingate Inn to any of my friends looking for elder care."

"I toured Allerton House at Proprietors Green. It was exquisite. The staff were very friendly. They had everything that I could be interested in. They had a theater, they had a pub, they had transportation, and they had a lovely dining room. It's extremely clean. It was in a very equipped location for everything."

"The staff at Decatur House was lovely. The people who owned it were very attentive and caring. It's a small family-owned place, which gave it an entirely different feel than the other places. This would have been our top choice had we been able to convince my parents-in-law to move. The rooms were open, roomy, and efficiently designed. The entire place was very accessible too. It was easy to park, easy to see the signage, and easy to find the entrance. Since it's smaller than a lot of places, it was much more accessible. Their dining area was bright, open, and looked like a dining area in a restaurant. It's very lovely and very nicely appointed. We ran into some of the residents and they looked happy and comfortable as well. It's a very big house, but it looked like someone's home. It was very nice and immaculate."

"My sister will be moving into the Cape Cod Senior Residences. It was a smaller place than the others we had visited, and that's what my sister was looking for. It was cozier and more like home. My sister will have a kitchenette, and it has a small refrigerator and a microwave. There is no stovetop. It has a huge bedroom. It is nice and roomy. The living room is a good size, and the bathroom is huge. The kitchenette is part of the living room, but off to the side. It's just nicely made. She has a window. The staff was awesome and very down to earth. She wasn't pushy or anything, and she seemed to care about the patients. Everybody knew her. She seemed like the kind of person who always has a smile on her face. She had a nice personality. The facility smells nice. Everything is clean. You can tell it's always been maintained, and that includes the outside as well."
