Independent Living Communities in Ventura, CA

"It was very nice visiting the Ventura Townehouse for my parents. The staff during that time was very helpful. Their rooms varied from fine to very nice in terms of size and appearance. The food seemed good to me, and the dining room was beautiful, as well. They also had a wide range of activities on-site and off-site. "

"This place is A#1! I was skeptical that I would find a site to place my mother because I had been taking care of her for 8 years (and she's very particular), but I was nothing but impressed from the moment I stepped into the assisted living building. The staff was very warm and genuine, the decor was beautiful but not overdone, the residents all immediately greeted me with smiles and asked who I was bringing there, then promptly told me that she would love it there. Very encouraging! Kathy and Pamela, in particular, the concierge and director we're extremely helpful, very approachable, reachable and ultimately professional. The dining room is adorable and has so many mouth watering selections on special and on their " Get anytime" menu. They always have snacks and coffee available with lots of comfortable places to enjoy them in or just sit and relax. My mother says that she has been welcomed with open arms by residents in a pleasant and friendly manner on a daily basis. The rooms are flanked by luxurious wide halls with thick plush carpeting and beautiful Beach inspired artwork displayed along the walls and nooks. Many rooms have small fresh air patios, and the bathrooms are amply sized with built in cabinetry and treated soft water flows from all the faucets and showers. Their are telephones in the common areas which can be accessed, as well as a spa room downstairs, a beauty salon. A personal or group shuttle service is available for shopping errands or other activities upon request, as well as on call maintenance for anything that requires service in the rooms. The common patio rooms on each floor have indoor quality seating areas with views down into the lush koi pond. Their excercise room and laundry are always nice and clean, and I've never seen a wait. Cypress Place place is adjacent to Von's grocery and the residents can go through a private coded convieience entrance into the store that's just for them! All of the utilities and meals are included, she just has to pay for phone and cable, but there are cable TV's in various activity rooms with comfortable seating, books, puzzles, as well as bingo and art classes. Overall, it is a wonderful and surprisingly affordable home that my mom enjoys each day. They are welcoming to me visiting whenever I want, any time of day, and I get the impression that they are really are good people, caregivers, not just employees. I would wholeheartedly recommend this as a home for anyone looking for a place for an aging family member or friend."

"My mother was at Lexington Assisted Living. The place was OK. They had calling buttons if you needed to call somebody. It was good. They have a pool, game room, exercises, and a whole lot of stuff going on for their residents. "

"My mother has moved into Clearwater at Riverpark. It's just the right size. It's clean and newer. The residents are wonderful. The staff is excellent. They made her feel welcome and at home. It's just the right place. I tried the food, and it's excellent. They have outings. They have shopping trips, and they have movies twice a day. They have a hair salon, an art studio, and a library. They have games, and they have a gardening club. They have all kinds of activities."

"I liked them. The rooms were a little small, but at least they had balconies, and I liked that. I thought it was a nice open floor plan in the main building. You walk in and to your right, there's something; in the center is the dining room, and to your left is a very open space where the administration main counter is. I really like the layout. The main building was well laid out, I like the dining room, and I like the open feel of it. It's very large-looking."

"Everything is wonderful. We are so happy with the care our mom has received here over the last few yeara. And, we want to give a special shout out for Rowena at the dining room/ kitchen. She is amazing and a real asset to the community."
