The Glen Villas

The tour I had at Villas at Canterfield was excellent. They have many activities, they have a beautiful pool and beautiful gardens. They have multiple programs as they go off-site, they have people come in, and they have Bridge clubs. They just got a lot going on. They have very friendly staff and I talked to several residents who love it there. So, my visit was completely positive. The facility was in great shape. We weren't able to tour any of the villas themselves because they're full. So we're on a waiting list now for the villas. We were able to tour an apartment in the independent living building, which was OK, but we wanted a freestanding villa with a garage and a fireplace. The dining area was nice, basically like the cafeteria, but they also had a bar where you could sit down and have a happy hour there. Then if you don't feel like sitting in the dining room, you have containers that you can bring down and get your food and take it back with you, or if you're feeling unwell, they will bring your meals to you.

I visited Villas at Canterfield. They have music that comes in on Fridays. When I went there, somebody with a guitar came and they had everybody set up in the main area. They were listening and they had little hors d'oeuvres for them, and they were watching this person sing. Some of the little old ladies and men were up dancing, but all the staff was there with them enjoying it. The rooms were a good size. This is a bigger place. They have an elevator, but it's only three floors, so it's not really that bad. They do everything from independent to memory care. At the time, I was looking at assisted. They had several different type of rooms that you could choose from. They had a little movie room, a little game room, a library, a spa to get your hair done, and a pool for the independent living. The cottages are in one place, the assisted is in another, and memory care is on another wing. It was nice and clean. The staff was very attentive. I also have a neighbor that sent her mother up there. She started out in independent care and now she's in memory care. They help evaluate the residents. They recommended it to us.

I moved into the Villas at Canterfield. I looked at probably twenty-to-twenty-five different facilities, and overall, it was absolutely the best available -- plus it was only three miles from my grandchildren. Being close to grandchildren was the primary decider, but it is also a first-class facility in every way. I am in an independent home villa. The facilities are magnificent, and the staff is magnificent. The home that I am in is virtually brand new, I do not have to do any yard work at the house, I do not have to do any housekeeping, and if I don't want to, I don't have to do any cooking. I have full cable-TV access, and I have high-speed Wi-Fi. I cannot think of anything bad to say about them.

I went to Villas at Canterfield for just a short visit. It seemed to be a very nice facility, but I felt like I was a little rushed going through the tour. I didn't get as good a vibe going through there, and I kinda didn't feel like that was the place for my dad because there seemed to be mostly women. I prefer to have my dad some place with more men. The rooms were nice and looked clean. I didn't see any person's room. The sample room seemed clean and spacious, like you would hope for, but there weren't closets. They have a bus that takes people places, but I don't know if they bring in entertainment or anything like that. We're in the middle of COVID, and they really can't tell me what they're going to be able to do going forward unfortunately. It looked clean and it would've been a fine location, but I wasn't sure that that was quite the place for my dad. It was very nice and it had multiple floors. It just wasn't my cup of tea. You have a car port in the front, and it's got four or five floors that wrap around. It's a fairly new building.

Villas at Canterfield was fabulous. The reason I didn't pick them was they didn't lock their doors, and if you have somebody that's not quite memory care, but who might wanna walk out, they wouldn't stop them, and I didn't like that. I don't remember the rooms, because they're just empty rooms. The staff was very nice, eager to please for us to pick them, and they're so good. The dining area looked very nice and very, very big, and it looked like just a large restaurant dining room, but it was all over open, and for people who use walkers, there was nothing to trip them up.

The rooms and the staff at Villas at Canterfield have been above expectations. My dad is pretty much at the top level in memory care. So far, things are so good. We've had communication issues to work out but the staff have been accommodating with that. They also have a happy hour and they also have church.
