Tiger Lily Estates

I toured Tiger Lily Estates. They were kind of neat. They were very new and very modern. They are current, and I liked it because it was new, more spacious, and more consistent. It was not what I was looking for, but it was beautiful. However, you had to leave the facility to go to a common area for events. I didn't care for that because you would be traveling in the rain or cold. If you were someone in a wheelchair or being pushed, I didn't care for that. It would not have worked for my friend because of her age. The rooms were spacious and current, so everything was consistent. It's like an apartment, and they're kind of cookie cutter. They had their own living-bedroom area and bathroom. They were very consistently the same, so you wouldn't find one a little smaller than another. They were spacious enough for a single person in the later years of life. They're clean and fresh because they're brand new. They had a calendar of events, and they had their in-house salon. There were a couple of things you could do in-house, but they had more structured activities (even things like chair exercises). They had a program, so I like that part about it. People would come and perhaps play the piano or do entertainment in a big area. They just do events in that building. They're not exclusively, but they're very fresh and very current. They have a separate kitchen area, and they bring food like a dorm. They're new, and they're recruiting. The staff were very, very nice and very informative. They followed up afterwards. They really wanted us to be happy or to be informed and have all the information we needed to make a decision. Everybody on that day couldn't be more attentive to make sure we understood and were good about what we were looking at.

I did a tour of Tiger Lily Estates. I wish we could afford it because that's where I would put my mother. There are quite a few cottages, and they have residents in the cottages. The staff was awesome. We did not try the food; we met the chef and he sounded awesome. The dining area was very nice. They had small tables. I think four people could sit at the tables, and there were quite a few tables in the dining room. They have a big dining room, a big living room kitchen area, and I think each cottage could hold around 25 residents. It was like a big house with 25 bedrooms, and a large living area, kitchen, and dining area. The bedrooms in the cottages were nice, roomy, and very cozy. They had transportation services and a physical therapy room. They had a physician that came on-site to see the residents. They had a laundry room and a medication room. The grounds are just absolutely beautiful, and the maintenance looked great.
