The Best Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Walton County, GA

"We thought about Park Springs but they did not maintain their properties well. The staff was very nice and pleasant, but I didn’t like the floor plans. The kitchens were too small for me because I like to cook. They need to work on maintenance, but other than that the rest of the facility was lovely. "

"Mom is in a particular place at Talmage Terrace called Personal Care and it is specifically appropriate for her condition. It's kind of a cross between assisted living, which is much more independent, and nursing home care, which is not independent. The personal care floor has more focused assistance for her ongoing activities. She has a single room with a bathroom. It's big enough. It's a larger size room, so she can fit some of her own furniture. It's probably smaller than what we would call a studio apartment. There's not a separate bedroom/living room thing, like a large hotel room but it works for her. She's wheelchair-bound, so she's got enough room to maneuver around. The staff has been very good. They're very kind, caring, and professional. They serve three meals a day. I just had lunch there today. I had seafood salad and soup and the seafood salad was very good. It's an older facility, but it's well-cared for, well-maintained, and clean. They've got a daily schedule of activities. They have at least five or six things going on pretty much every day."

"Extremely nice center inside and out. employees were compassionate and friendly by always helping and entertain the senior. The seniors were treated like friends instead of patients. I saw a staff member reading a novel each day I visited to a group of the seniors. Afterwards they'd go over what the book was about, very helpful with memory loss residents. "

"I have always been a bit impetuous when making purchases, some I've regretted and had to live with, some not so bad. So, when I was confronted with my most recent quest, I decided that there could be no mistakes since this would be the biggest and most likely, last major decision that would affect the rest of my life and my husband's. With that in mind, I began the search for an adult facility that would encompass all of the necessary items that fit into our life style and the search lasted two long arduous years, going to visit at least fifteen different facilities all over the southern region and finally resulting in finding perfection through friends sending us a Christmas card and inviting us over for an innocent visit. The Canterbury Court has been the best thing that has happened to both of us. With my husband's memory declining, I knew we needed two levels of living. Here, I don't have to get in a car and drive to see him. He is merely a catwalk away, but I choose most times to walk through the garden. I see him daily and thoroughly enjoy our visits. (We have fallen in love all over again.) The nursing staff is incredible and attentive the only thing he complains of is the amount of activities that they are always inviting him to participate in (but he welcomes the attention.) As for my accommodations, I couldn't be happier. Talk about activities, there is always something to do daily. Sometimes I have to choose whether I want to attend the symphony, see a play at the Fox, take tours of the city, attend church services in the beautiful chapel, do an assortment of workout classes and on and on. The food is incredible and plentiful. There are several restaurants that cater to your culinary desire all day long. I feel like I live in a village with everything available and can go out if I desire on one of the nice spacious buses that have designated days to take you shopping at the more popular stores. When I first walked into the Canterbury, I felt as if I were in one of the fancy hotel lobbies in a foreign city. Walking in the incredible garden, I was transformed into an enchanted forest. I guess I sound like I am in love with this place and I am. Thank God that I waited until I found what we wanted and more than what we needed. We plan to spend the rest of our lives here in paradise. Come and see us. If this is not what you want, you're going to have a hard search on your hands. Did I mention how incredibly wonderful and friendly everyone is? I have a new and extended family and never get tired of sharing time with them."
