The Best Independent Living Communities in Riverside County, CA

"I am a new resident, 2 weeks, and this is the place if you need assisted living. My wife and I share a cozy one bedroom apartment with our own furniture and we moved our sweet girl cat in with us. The amenities are great, the activities wonderful and the cuisine compares with a good restaurant, with infinite varieties of menu choices. The staff is friendly and professional, from Jennifer, the director and Karen, nurse in charge if caring and eager to help. I am grateful to found a home here with my wife.

"It is excellent. The location and weather is perfect. The staff is congenial, the care is good, the food is excellent. They also provide recreational activities for the residents. "

"I'm a resident of Mission Commons. It has been very nice here. However, the meals are a little bit close together, but trying to give three meals at a reasonable day is pretty tough. They have games and outings, go places, arrange shopping trips, and will take you to church or to the doctors. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. In the assisted living, they help with keeping up with your daily medications, laundry, showers, and will take your dog for a walk."

"It was very nice, very clean, and friendly. They accommodated me with no appointment, and I really appreciated that. One time I had an appointment and the second time I just took my mom without an appointment, and they were still able to show me around. It was just a quick visit, and they met my standards."

"Everything seemed perfect for my father. It?s clean and has a nice environment. The staff is nice and cooperative. The rooms are spacious and clean with a nice carpet and the bathrooms are remodeled. They discuss various activities during the week and they have a monthly schedule on the wall so everybody may be aware of it. "

"We live here. It is a very happy, pretty, and comfortable place. The menu is very broad, well thought out, and has what seniors like. We have activities, like Bible study. Our room is clean and roomy. The staff is excellent and very friendly. "

"Corona RCFE was very nice, and the people were very friendly. The grounds were good. The room is perfect for my mother who is 92. She just needs a room with a little bed, a chair, and a TV. That's all she needs. It looks like she can go out and go to the dining room area, and things like that, and they have those things available too. The staff who helped me was very friendly and answered all the questions. She was very good. I didn't sample the food, but the dining area was fine. For activities, they have a little room where people can go and they can meet with each other and play games and so on, so that's fine."

"Four Seasons at Hemet was the best community. I don't think we could have ever lived in a nicer one. They had a social calendar. We never missed a happy New Year for the 10 or 12 years we lived there. It was the greatest community. They were always having something like concerts out on the patio, in the courtyard, and dances. All kinds of things and we had a social director. They had a lot of exercise facilities too. They did trips and it was an active community. We had a very nice house, 3 bedrooms, and a den. It was lovely. There was a little coffee shop in the clubhouse. The staff was wonderful."

"I will move into The Village Hemet. It's a beautiful facility, and it has several amenities that I can use. I've got friends there already. They have wonderful meals, maids, and transportation services, so it's all in one location. A couple of my friends said you don't even have to leave the building if you don't want to, and they take complete care of you. The staff have been great and helpful in getting the process started and completed. They've been really good. I had lunch a couple of times, and it's like a five-star restaurant. It's very clean. It looks brand new, although it's been there since either '89 or '98, but it's a beautiful facility. It was like a five-star hotel."

"The people at Valle Hermosa seem nice. So far, I have no complaints. The neighbors seemed very friendly. The condos are two bedrooms and two baths, and it has a dining area and a living area. Some apartments have fireplaces. We cook our food, do our own housekeeping. The city government of Hemet can provide buses if you want to go some place. "

"I am a caregiver for a friend that has lived at Vista Montana for the past 6 months. I visit this assisted living facility very frequently and each time I find the staff extremely attentive. The facility is extremely clean, has attentive medication assistance and offers an array of activities for the residents to keep them active. Prior to coming to Vista Montana in Hemet my friend was at a similar facility in Long Beach which is owned by the same company which was also very good. My complements to the staff at Vista Montana. Please keep up the good work!"

"Chardonnay Hills Care Home was a beautiful home, very nicely decorated, with new furniture and a lovely backyard. It's in a very nice area. All the homes are very nice there. The caregiver I met was a very shy type of person. I thought I had to pull information out of her. She's a very reserved kind of woman. The place was pristine and super clean. The people in there seemed happy, but my stepfather needs people that are a little more engaging and the caregiver just wasn't engaging. It was all new. They had a big sofa in front of the TV and it was over the fireplace. It's a brand-new home with granite countertops. The bathrooms were brand new. They had a nice dining room table. Their doors were locked. They were cautious opening for people. They make you sign a guestbook. The caregiver was stricter about the facemask. She wanted me to wear a facemask inside the facility and those are good things. They're trying to take care of the people that are in this facility and protect them. The place seemed very quiet. The backyard was lovely. It was kind of an ideal place, but I thought the caregiver was too timid for my father. He would have her probably in tears because he's kind of abrupt sometimes. This lady needs to be stronger. She's new, but it doesn't mean she's not capable of caring for people. There were two women in there and they seemed to be fine with her. She was doing things. She wasn't sitting there doing anything. She just wasn't very forthcoming with any information."

"Our experience being in The Oasis Community is very good and I've been here for 16 years. They're all single-family homes, independent living. It's a beautiful community that's gated so there's high security, and it's well-kept. The staff is very helpful, they do a good job. They don't provide any meals but there are lots of activities and lots of clubs and committees to volunteer on. They've got a beautiful swimming pool and tennis courts. There's a large clubhouse that's beautifully done, it's been redecorated in the last few years. There's also a gym, a library and a lot of available exercise classes. It's reasonable in terms of value for the money. It's in an attractive location, Menifee is a relatively small city, about 100,000 people, but it's growing quickly. There's lots of shopping very close by, so it's a very well situated location."
