We had a tour. It was very nice. They have very friendly staff, and it's very clean. The woman who gave us the tour was very informative. It's just positive, I don't have anything negative to say. They take all the normal precautions.

The physical and occupational therapy department was wonderful and very caring. That's really why my friend stayed even after her 100 days of support from the insurance company was up. The food has not only been terrific in terms of what is served, but also how it's served. The general friendliness of the place was really nice. They have two dining rooms with one area for people who need to be fed and the other for those who don't need assistance eating. They have a TV room, and there's a nice lady who entertains the residents with all sorts of activities daily.

My friend transferred from the nursing home to the assisted living part in a room with a nice bathroom. The assisted living unit was very small. She still goes back to the skilled nursing part for her OT and PT. The dining area is in a totally different corridor with four tables of four people each. They have a living room with a TV. Basically, the residents just stay in their own rooms. They have outside people come in to play the guitar, talk, or provide some entertainment for the residents.

We liked it. I liked the cottages, which seemed to be roomier, but my wife wanted to go with the apartments. They had activities like exercise, Zumba, and weight loss. They have nurses on-call, and they would take us to our doctors. They have three meals a day. The place looked very nice.

My mother is living here. She moved in there the end of October last year. It's the best that we found here. We chose this facility because of its proximity to me and the cost. The people there are extremely nice. The staff is very caring and very thoughtful. They seem to take an interest in each one of their residents. They remember their residents' names. They're very nice. For accommodation, my mom has a two-bedroom apartment. It has a kitchen, a living room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. For activities, my mom doesn't get involved in a lot of activities but they do have activities for them. They go to different places for activities. They have a bus that takes them to doctors appointments and there's grocery shopping and shopping. They have different games like bingo, Mexican Train, pinochle, etc., and I think they have a bridge club. The facility has a gift store and a library in there too. With regards to food, I haven't eaten there, but my mom says that the food is very good. They serve two meals a day, lunch and dinner, and they seem to be very good and very nice.

I got a list of assisted living facilities from Caring.com and this was one of them. I visited this place. The room was fine. They did have recreational activities for their residents. I would give it a fairly high rating based on my visit.

I visited this place. It was a very nice facility. It was also clean. Everything was excellent except the size of their apartments. Their two-bedroom apartments weren't that big.
