We toured. I felt my mom wasn't advanced enough to be here. It seemed to be for people who were a little more advanced in needing care. I thought the staff was very knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. The facility looked clean and nice.

I toured here and another place, and we're moving forward with her. Besides the location being just right, we like the homey feel, the green space, and the way the memory care side of the house gets great access to amenities just like those who don't need memory care. Everything was very warm and inviting. The staff who gave us the tour was lovely to work with.

I liked it because it's small and tightknit. The rooms we saw had plenty of room. They showed me both a studio and a one-bedroom. They had a lot of activities, like bingo and arts, and that type of stuff. The staff during the tour was great. It looked very clean.

I liked it. They seem to have everything all in one stop. The assisted living, independent living, and memory care were all pretty much in one building. They were really helpful. They seemed knowledgeable. The apartments were nice. I can't say anything bad about them. They have a bus shuttle, games, and different activities for them to do. It seemed like they were really good on the care side.

I went here. I would say it had lovely grounds and a very welcoming facility. The room was of adequate size. The staff was very, very friendly, outgoing, and helpful. They had a salon, an activities room, and social-gathering areas.

It was very nice. The staff was very friendly and nice. I liked the rooms, and the size of the rooms. I really liked that place. They have activities like movies and cards. The dining room looked nice. My mother is more independent. She can shower herself and dress herself. She would get used to three staff members that would take care of whatever needs that she had, and I thought that was nice. They had a lot of staff, and they were very friendly.

My parents moved in. They are extremely caring, absolutely wonderful, and doing an excellent job caring for my parents. My parents are not making it easy for them. My dad gained seven pounds this month, so the food is pretty good. They have lots of interactive activities and music and lots of people around. My parents do not participate in a lot because they are ill, but when they are not ill, they participate. Their room is always clean. They have a two-bedroom suit with a kitchenette.

It was very nice. The staff is very helpful. They offered us lunch, and the food was very good. There was a little exercise going on when we came there. The place was very beautiful too.

I went here and the people there were very nice. They have wonderful programs for their residents. It was a smaller facility. The rooms were fine, and they were very clean. They have assisted living as well as a memory care unit. They have very nice programs, but it was just far from me. What bothered me about them is that there was too much going on, but probably it was just me. I probably just wanted a quiet place.

We chose here because of the proximity: it was only fifteen minutes away from us. We were very impressed with the quality of the staff. They had a positive character and were responsive to our questions and issues. I ate lunch at the facility quite often, and the food was very good. Mom had a room with two bedrooms, bathroom, kitchenette, and an open area. There was always something going on pretty much every day. Activities like crafts, bingo, occasional outings to restaurants, religious programs on weekends, special events, etc. Overall, we had no complaints, and we were very pleased.

It was very nice. That's where she was going to stay if she moved up here. We thought the people there were very professional, very helpful, very nice and we really felt we found the right place. I even took her to a church around the corner that she wouldn't have to go that far to go to church. We did see a room because she has an apartment picked out and the layout was nice. We had a meal there and the food was very good. At the time we were there, there was a lady, a volunteer who came in and she would paint small objects for people like little stools and they were really cute. There were residents who were out there watching her paint while we were there. We met some of the residents and they all loved it. They couldn't compliment you as much as to how nice it was.

It was the one that I wanted to put my mother in. The lady that I talked to was very nice and everybody was very friendly. However, the only problem was, she would have to be on the second floor and my mom had dementia and had already fallen in our basement stairs. So, although they had a beautiful staircase, I don’t' want her near any stairs. They had a double-room. It was like two separate rooms, which were open to the bathroom and there was a door between them.
