My wife has been at Cedar Creek, but since the prices went up we're looking to move. She's getting full care, so they provide her meals three times a day and they give her baths. She has a private room there. The community also offers a lot of entertainment and they have things like fitness. It has a beautiful dining room, and the food is very good. They're also privately-owned by Cedar Creek and they attend the restaurant. One of the advantages is the location. We have no problem in going and visiting at any time of day or night.

Cedar Creek was beautiful. I would actually like to live there. The layout was fantastic. The person who assisted me was awesome. They have a library, painting classes, a beauty salon, and trips, and they have their own shuttle system, so they can take you to doctors' appointments. I would've loved it there, but it just costs too much extra for them to give my mom her medications. We live in Madera, so it would've been closer. I looked over the menu, and it was really good.

I was impressed with Cedar Creek. It looked very nice for my wife, but unfortunately, before we could get involved, she passed away. I may still end up there. They seem to have a good reputation here in town for nice, clean facilities, nice food, and everything. I don’t have anything bad to say about them.

They are good for people who are independent. When your loved one gets to where they start needing more care is when cedar creek's quality diminishes. Managment has no idea how to lead a team of medical staff, despite their "daily staff meetings" there is no communication at all. When you repeatedly complain to managment about unsanitary conditions and neglect, but nothing changes, it's no longer a staff problem, it's a leadership problem. I do not recommend them for anything other then Independent living unless they make managment changes.

I visited Cedar Creek Senior Living with my stepdad. They fixed lunch for him, and he liked the food. I liked the fact that you can order whatever you want. The biggest thing we're happy about was when we were moving my parents in, the manager of the place helped us move all our stuff from the trailer into the building. We found out after a few days of moving them in that they get Mom up in the morning, get her cleaned up, get her dressed, and they get her up using her walker to go to the bathroom; she didn't do all of that before. She is doing so much better there, and they are actually taking care of her. She goes down to eat 3 times a day, she no longer eats in her bed. They are treating her so much better, and it is so incredible.

We put my dad in Cedar Creek. We like all the activities that they have. He has dementia. They have a dementia ward and a regular ward. They have a transition section. In his level of care, it gives him the freedom of the entire facility to do all the activities like outings and go on trips, but he is monitored closely at night. His room is like a regular apartment. It has a kitchen with no stove, but it has a refrigerator. It has a living room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. I had some problem with the billing -- just minor things -- but the facility itself and the people who works there -- the nurses and those type of people -- are wonderful.

I was given a great tour of the facility and after touring five (5) others I felt Cedar Creek was the best fit for my 90 year old mother. The staff have been so caring to my mom from her very first day making the transition an easy and good experience for her. The activities are wonderful and I can't relate the feeling of happiness I feel after a visit realizing the staff have made it a point to know my mom's name by sight. When my mom moved in and I had a questions never once was I made to feel I was bothering and my question was quickly answered. I am so happy with Cedar Creek Senior Living Facility.

We looked through Cedar Creek, which is close to my home. They were very kind and knowledgeable. The people who helped us were just excellent. We were looking at the outside apartments as my parents do not need very much care at this time, and those are the ones that we were interested in, but they toured the whole facility with us, so that we will know that if my parents needed more care at a later date, it will be available for them. So they gave us a tour of the whole facility, and they spent a lot of time with us. I was very happy with it, and I wanted my parents to go there, but my parents simply were not ready at this time. The only drawback that I saw was there was only room for a single car and both of my parents were driving at that time, so they wanted room for their vehicles. They bought us lunch, and we all had lunch together. There were six of us, and the lunch was very good. My parents liked it. You could order off of a menu; it was very nice. They had a full calendar of events that will cover a lot of interests. They had outside events being held there like meetings, and they had spiritual events because both of my parents happen to be active Christians, they had several denominations, and a full calendar of events that would appeal to a lot of interests. They had a gym, a spa, and a hair salon. They basically had everything that my parents could possibly need or want. It will be very close to a five as far as cleanliness, and it is very modern. It is not that old of a facility, and it is very well-kept. It was just very nice.

I really liked Cedar Creek. It was very good. The rooms were very nice. They had some separate apartments which my mother liked, but she does not feel like she needs any help right now. The grounds were very well kept up, and the people were very nice and very friendly. They had a lot of activities like bingo and parties. They also had a bus that takes residents to their appointments.

I visited this facility
We visited all parts of Cedar Creek Senior Living. It's substantially smaller than the other two facilites that we visited. It has a total of about 100 residents. The person that took me to the tour was young and perfect for the job. She knows what she's doing, she's very gracious, very forthcoming, answers questions, and goes out of her way to take care of you. We had lunch there. The visiting experience was pretty good, but it's not a place where we would want to live.
Memory Care Reviews for Cedar Creek Senior Living

I visited this facility
Cedar Creek Senior Living was fantastic in appearance. Everything was elegant, from the paintings on the walls, to the furniture. Everything was beautiful. The staff who showed me around was very dressed and elegant looking. It was a really nice place. The care center sat where there were lots of trees, so you get that kind of feeling even when you're just looking out the windows and even if you're not out in it. It's very comfortable and it makes you feel special.
