Frankly, I don't want more people to get on the waiting list of The Redwoods because I really like it. Their facilities are lovely, there's a safe way across the way, and it's surrounded by field of flowers. It's also built on wood, which fits the areas perfectly. They have big rooms where everybody can congregate, and they have a place for seeing moves and lectures. They probably have the largest list of things to do and places to go among everywhere I've visited or seen. The person who helped me with the tour did the best that she could, but she only arrived there two months ago, so I still have unanswered questions.

The Redwoods was a beautiful place. The staff was amazing. There were tons of activities to do, and it was in a convenient location. We saw a studio. It was nice, it had a balcony, but it didn't have a kitchenette. They have an exercise room where the residents do exercises and yoga. They also have a garden.

The Redwoods was in a good location because it's only a few minutes from where my family lives. It seemed rundown to me, so I wasn't too impressed. I saw a very small room. The people seemed happy, though.

The Redwoods Retirement is a bigger retirement community. The elderly people there seemed more lively with a lot of activities to do, which was the best part of it.

Redwoods has a very high reputation. I think the facility is very well thought of and we don't live very far from it. The rooms are dark and small and I feel claustrophobic. I'm looking for places that are roomier.

My grandmother lived in The Redwoods for many years, and today many of my friends' parents reside there. It's a very special graduated assisted living facility that meets all residents' needs, from completely independent apartments through fully assisted living with hospital care. Run by the Episcopal Church of Mill Valley, it's also affordable and the staff is dedicated. They have the support of many volunteers, who come to visit and assist with activities. I would highly recommend this facility, the only downside is that I believe there's a long wait list to get in, so if you have an older relative in Marin who hopes to live there, they need to get on the list.

We visited The Redwoods. The rooms are about 500 sq. ft. apartments. They're all being renovated and they're very nicely appointed. The facility has everything anybody would want. There are lots of activities, guest speakers, and classes so there's a lot of enrichment. The staff is all very nice and most of them are not long-term employees. They are very compassionate and they're friendly. They serve three meals a day and the food looks very good. It was a pleasant environment.

The atmosphere was really cheerful. The provider didn't hold that strong of a presence, instead just running the show behind the scenes and helping people who needed it. The residents fell into a pretty wide range of ages, but it seemed that independence was important. The location and facilities were beautiful, being directly across from the bay and in a beautiful town, that being Mill Valley. The residents seemed cheerful and the ones who were disabled were actually present, meaning that the staff is making an effort to provide them with entertainment and keep them happy. The people at the redwoods are very active parts in the Mill Valley community and can often be seen protesting political causes or taking part in community events. The homes were separated and attractive. This was wildly different from the place where my great grandmother lived, which was a nursing home and very controlling. The people were a little more abandoned here, and the place had more of a factory feel then the others. Overall the Redwoods was more of a community than a home and the residents seemed more happy than any other senior community I have ever seen.

The Redwoods is quality living which attracts stimulating residents including social and political movers and shakers, artists and writers . The quality is in the staff and their commitment to the residents active life styles as well as their care. From independent living to health care residents are able to remain surrounded by their friends. I look forward to my weekly visits.
