My mother is in the assisted living. They have lots of activities and she's happy. The staff is wonderful, the rooms are very reasonable, food is excellent, and they have like three to four activities a day. She's so tired because she does all the activities and the staff is very good. It's very clean. They play bingo, they have social hours, they have pizza parties, and they play card games. They have people that come in and they sing with them, they have dogs that come there, and they have a church. They have so much stuff to do.

It seems to fit my husband's needs at the present time. For the most part, I'm satisfied. His room is fine, but you have to furnish it. I saw people just sitting around and watching television. There are some activities, but none that really fits him. The staff is pleasant and they try. He seems to be eating well; he hasn't complained. The menu has a good variety. The place is clean and it doesn't smell.

I found a rare gem! Warmth and home like atmosphere. Mom and dad were happy to see the attention residents received. The one bedroom apartment they chose is perfect for their needs. Staff engaged us and actually introduced themselves! No smoke screens. Honest concern for our needs. Glad we took our time to get to know this team.

My relative moved in. He doesn't like it because it's too small for him since he came from a three-bedroom house with good ceilings. So he's not really happy, but he'll deal with it. Everybody there is actually nice. They have activities for the residents even though he doesn't do that stuff. There was one day they asked him to join the exercises and he enjoyed it. The things I have had problems with I have told the staff about. The price is a little on the high side, but about the same as other places.
