I needed a place to stay for the first 10 days after surgery when more care is needed, prior to moving to my children's home.
Every aspect of Winnwood was wonderful. The sunny, spacious room, the attentive care, delicious meals and pleasant dinner mates, management was very kind and respectful, the staff is happy, and the lively activities director always had something fun or interesting to offer. The price, too, was reasonable for everything that was offered. I cannot think of anything negative whatsoever to mention. It is uniquely awesome!

The food is horrible! There own chef cannot cook, he can only carve fruit! The apartments are very tiny. The bathroom are not ADA approved. If you have a resident in a wheelchair good luck trying to help them to the restroom. The Assistant director now is a joke. The management is a huge turn over! If you last longer than a year in your management position that is a miracle!! Beds don't get made, laundry does not get done!!

I like the people and the accommodations at Winnwood Retirement Community. My niece lives in Marietta, that's why I want to be there. The physical appearance is very nice. I was there for a wine and cheese party, and everybody was extremely friendly. They have very attractive interior. They also have assisted living, but it is in separate building.

The Independent Living part of the community is really nice, but my family decided to mover our dad out of Winnwood to avoid having to take him to the Assisted Living building. They have just lost so much staff, and the turnover rate is very high. The new director is not very personable, and does not go out of her way to mingle with staff, residents or family members. There are several new communities close by, one of them is where my dad is, and he is so much happier.

My mother-in-law has been in Winnwood Retirement Community for almost a year now. We're having a great experience with them. They have been great. They're a small community, and I think it is family-owned. The staff has been very responsive to our parents. They have a lot of activities and are very close to their doctors. They have different parties that involve the families. I think there's a bowling team and different games. We have eaten there with them, and food was good.

Winnwood is a really good place in terms of the services, the campus, the grounds, and everything. It's been there for 25 years, so they know what they're doing. We were a little worried the first night but fine ever since. My mom and dad have said the food has been very good. The activities are good, and we're trying to get Mom and Dad to participate in them a little more. Right now, they're still adjusting to change, but it's good.

I was at Winnwood Retirement Community. It was privately owned. They changed managers four times in three years, and it never got any better. The staff had a complete turnover several times, and they were not particularly caring. The food was OK.

The facility is very nice. The people are nice and helpful. The food here is horrible. Do not consider this if that is important to you.

Winnwood was very homey and warm. The woman that took us around was very open, very friendly, and helpful. We looked at the two-bedroom, and it was ample. They had activities, and they seemed to be sufficient.

Winnwood Retirement Community has single rooms. They have apartments with 1 or 2 bedrooms. It would be the apartment with 1 bedroom that I was interested in. They are lovely. They have sufficient windows, and they have enough room. They have a small kitchen. They do not have a dishwasher in the kitchen, but other than that, all the appliances are there. They serve only one meal, which is dinner at night. You make your own breakfast and lunch. They have all the activities that anyone could desire. I was very pleased with it, but we work very hard for our money, and I do not like to have to pay almost $3,000 a month. It's a lot of money, so I haven't gone ahead with it. The dining room is lovely. They have tablecloths and nice service.

We are in the process of moving my mother to Winnwood Retirement. I've seen it in person, and it's very nice. I was only able to meet two people. Because of the Coronavirus, we can't talk to anybody. We also saw the apartment she's going to be living in. Everything in the facility was very clean and up-to-date.

Winnwood is surrounded with woods and flowers. It’s in a pretty location, and that’s what I really like about it; plus it’s on a big acreage. The people were pretty nice there. They go to the grocery stores, on field trips and do a lot of activities. It had nice and clean one-bedroom apartments.

The tour at Winnwood Retirement Community was good and the place was nice. The only negative was that we thought we'd be able to afford it because of the way that the price was explained to us. We thought it costs $2,000, plus Mom would get $1,200 from VA so she would be OK. However, a second person explained to us that it doesn't work that way. They were contradicting each other. After the first lady explained it to us, we put $200 down just to hold the place until we were ready, but then the second lady explained that VA won't cover that because my mom will just be in independent living. Then they refused to give us our money back and I had to get a lawyer. The place itself is pretty, there are flowers and gardens everywhere, and they have lots of outings for the seniors to go on. That part looked very inviting. It was really good and the food and the meals looked good. The room size was also nice. We looked at an apartment and it had a full kitchenette, and a living room and bedroom that were sort of combined but separated by like a sofa. I thought Mom would have been happy there. The day we went to visit they were about to go on a shopping trip. We saw several of the residents who looked very happy, they looked like they were living and not just sitting around in their wheelchairs. They're up and about and going someplace. We just couldn't afford it.

My mother will be moving in to Winnwood Retirement. It was great and had the perfect location. We like it a lot. The studio apartment is very nice and has a full kitchen. They go on field trips.

Winnwood is a lovely community. My in-laws are in the independent living place in a very nice apartment that is one big long room with a small kitchen on one end and a living room on the other, plus a bedroom and separate bathroom. The facility has a nice sitting area and a baby grand piano. The staff is nice to us. The food is really good and fine dining.
