I went to look at Millcroft Living, and it's quite nice. The facility was beautiful. The apartments were beautiful. They weren't furnished. It was clean, spacious, sunny, and bright. They had a refrigerator and a stove. It was a fully equipped kitchen in terms of facilities. The staff was very knowledgeable and courteous. But I had the definite feeling that I wasn't the person that she would choose to be there. There weren't enough parking spaces.

We had my 85 year old mother in Millcroft's short term rehab after being discharged from spending nearly 3 weeks in the hospital. She needed PT/OT in hopes of getting her back to living alone. The entire staff were so helpful, kind and knowledgeable it ended up being a very positive experience for both my mother and us. Their staff WORK hard at what they do and the results show. My thanks and appreciation go out to all the staff members. This was a great experience; THANK YOU ALL!!

The staff at Millcroft is friendly and highly accommodating. Very kind and supportive. The facility is gorgeous, well decorated, inviting and comfortable. The units are a perfect size. The food is excellent T with many choices. The food staff are warm, friendly and genuinely want you to feel nourished. I can’t say enough great things about Millcroft and I am so grateful for them.

We toured Millcroft Living. We like the fact that they provide meals and all the amenities that my parents would need. The staff were very friendly and helpful and answered all our questions. Some of the hallways were very narrow, so it was hard for my mother, who has a wheelchair. They have a salon and a courtyard. They have a lot of activities. They have like common meeting areas.

We're leaning towards Millcroft Living. From the ones we looked at so far, that was the best one. The feel of the place and the staff we talked to was better than in other places. The residents seemed to be in good spirits, and that's one of the main things. Also, the layout was just a little more homey-feeling. The staff who gave me the tour was very good. She was very personable, and she gave us a good tour. It's a fairly extensive tour; we got to see quite a bit. The rooms were clean, and the closets were big. They're fairly large; they're fairly good size rooms. The closets were big, and the bathroom was nice. They have happy hour, they have a movie night, and they have a shuttle bus where they go out and do things once in a while. There was a couple of bridge tables going. The surroundings were a very pleasant area; it's kind of a little bit more in the country.

I have nothing but good things to say about Millcroft. The apartment was rather small, but the apartment was certainly larger and adequate. The building was newer, and although I didn't talk to a lot of the staff, they seemed very helpful, very efficient, and pleasant. The premises were actually lovely. They have a decent gym, a library, and they provide the meals. The lady mentioned that you had a choice of two meals for lunch and dinner. If neither one of them are suitable, there's a set menu that you can always choose from. Breakfast was like a self-serve buffet. As far as entertainment, they had a happy hour on Fridays. So, it seemed like something really, really nice.

I know Millcroft because I visited someone weekly there through church before Covid. I have been in their dining room and I have eaten there with the person I visited. Everything was very comfortable. Their independent room happened to be a 2-bedroom, and it was very spacious. The dining room was very elegant, and the food was nutritious and tasty. The staff was very nice.

Millcroft took very good care of my friend. We were very disappointed with the food. We told them my friend didn't like any kind of seafood, and yet she would continually be given tuna fish sandwiches for lunch. We also told them that she didn't like peas, but they'd still give her those on her dinner plate as well as split pea soup. They'd also give her canned fruit as opposed to fresh fruit for breakfast.

I really liked Millcroft. They showed me the open places and gave me a tour of the facility. They have a place for people that need more assisted living and a place for people that can live on their own. Right now, my parents are OK to live on their own. They just need somebody to help fix meals and check to make sure that they're OK. It offers two-week respite instead of having to be there for a month. They have a lot of activities and were geared more to the needs of my parents, so I really enjoyed that place. It looks like one I would probably use.

Millcroft is a very nice facility. The room I was in was very nice. The staff who took care of me was very nice, too. I told them I will be back to live in this facility because I was just there for rehabilitation for a while. The food they serve is OK but not great. I play cards and join in on the other activities. They can improve on the quality of their food.

My dad likes Millcroft, and I actually love the place, the environment, the staff, and the cleanliness of the place. His room is really nice. I haven’t tried the food, but he seems to like it. He only does physical therapy.

We liked the rooms that were available at Millcroft. We liked the fact that it had independent, assisted, and skilled nursing. We liked the fact that therapy was on-site. We happened to have a different meal there. It was their Continental breakfast. They had good food choices for the residents. It was just a little less social for what I was looking for for my dad. They had activities, but they just didn't seem to be as much. The staff was very knowledgeable. If they weren't sure about something they promised to get back to us, and they did.

We toured this community over the weekend, it was perfect for our parents. We were looking for a place that when they needed more care it was available to them. They are more independent, Dad drives and Mom only needs a care. But, if Mom or Dad needed more care say after a fall or they had a car accident,they could go to the rehab center on the same property. We checked other senior communities, none of them had a rehab or a nursing site on their properties. Almost of the other Independent and Assisted Living communities when asked the question of what would happen if say Dad went into the hospital and needed a nursing home, were would they go. All of them didn't want to talk about that, saying lets not talk about that if it's not going to happen. Well, we are thinking ahead for our parent's future. When pushed the other senior communities said "Millcroft". That's why our parents will be moving into this senior community.

I visited Millcroft when my mom was receiving rehabilitation. It is very nice clean, and spacious. The nurses are very nice and they have a good staff. The food is good. The rooms where the people stay are very nice. They're clean and they keep them up. It's two people to a room and there's a good amount of space for each person. There's access to other rooms such as a dining room and a physical therapy room. I would say it's a very nice place. It's a clinical environment, but it seemed very nice to me. My mother was very well attended to. The doctors, the nurses, and the aides took good care of her. When I was visiting her, at least two or three people popped in to see how she was doing. They will be moving into the Millcroft Assisted Living apartments.
