The Best Independent Living Communities in Carroll County, GA

"I visited Angels PCH LLC. It's a nice place and very clean, too. The housemaker or the house owner showed me around and told me everything. They explained the whole situation between assisted living and independent group living and whatnot. The rooms are clean and well-maintained. The beds were made up. She was cooking, made me some cornbread, and gave me good corn muffins. It was clean all the way around and the grass was well cut. The porch was clean and didn't have any clutter. The tables and chairs were neatly arranged and were very comfortable, you could sit out on the porch and enjoy nature."

"My brother went to Carrollton Club. The place is very nice, very clean, and very quiet. I think they serve them one meal a day, and then they cook for the rest of it. They have their own kitchen and everything. It's a bedroom, a living room, and a full kitchen with a stove and refrigerator. They can have a pet. It's about $200 extra for a pet, just one and not over 20 pounds. It's convenient to the VA and pretty close to the hospital. They have bus service three days a week. They take you to the grocery store and to places that you need to go inside the county. I think it's a very good place. If I had to be by myself and have a place to live, I wouldn't mind living there. It's not like your house, of course, but I would feel safe there. Everyone that we've met over there has been very friendly and very cooperative. I didn't have any contact with the staff. My husband did, and he was pleased. They were easy to work with and very helpful. They have a cleaning service, a garbage service, and a laundry room (not in their apartment, but in the building that is convenient and very reasonably priced). I think he's going to be pleased there. He has to pay his electric bill. They have a lot of open spaces, dining rooms, and things that people can gather and associate with each other. I thought it was a nice setup."

"It was built back in the eighties and it's been in our county since we moved over here, so it's well established, right behind the major shopping areas. It's convenient to church. It has kind of an eighties look, townhouses, the main building, kind of those homes with fields and the grounds. It's real homey. I got a small apartment because it's just me. It's 600 square feet, but well designed, and all the spaces used well. It's real good for wheelchairs and walkers. The doors are wide enough. It's probably time to get more upgrades, but it's absolutely fine with us because we eat over at the main building anyway, so I don't do a lot of cooking or anything. The dining area is real nice. They take real good care of us and the food is good. It's not filet mignon, but it's all healthy, and it's all what we need. It's nutritious food and there's not a lot of sweets to make us not feel good. They try to take good care of us, and we get all our food groups for sure. It's always warm. The staff is very friendly and very helpful. It's a real happy place. Every day, you get to do bingo, you can do art, and you got different choices of different things you can do. You can go out to church, but you can have church there, too. We have book studies. We do yoga and exercise. The facility really works well for us all."

"It was nice. It was well-spaced out and very quiet. They offered activities for independent living people. The apartment I saw was very nice and very comfortable for one person. When I stepped into the community, it also felt comfortable."

"I liked Claiborne at Newnan Lakes, but at the time, it was too expensive for me. They have happy hours on Fridays. I don't drink though, so it's not the alcohol that I'm looking for, it's more the music and the dancing. The facility is beautiful. The people are fantastic and friendly. The lady was just wonderful. The place is spotless. They have activities. I couldn't tell for sure if they have the dancing that I like, but I like the atmosphere. I still have the paperwork, and I wish I could afford it."

"I toured Ashlynn Ridge 55+ Apartments. It's a newer community that has a lot of activities for seniors. It has a lot of help with the subsidies that they get to keep the cost of the place down for the residents. It's much cheaper than the usual senior living place and very cost-effective. Everyone seemed very friendly, but they didn't have openings for new residents. They have the option for the dining area or they can cook their own, it depends on what they want. The units are nice and new."

"I looked at a place named The Phoenix at Dallas. It's independent living and the place has cottages. The one I visited was a one-car garage unit and I liked it. It has two large bedrooms, and the master bedroom can hold a king-sized bed while the other can hold a queen-size bed. The master bedroom has a walk-in closet and a pretty nice-sized bathroom. The other bedroom has a regular closet and another bathroom, so the place has two full bathrooms with showers. There's a pretty nice kitchen with all the things that you want in it like the refrigerator with an ice maker. It has a sink where you can put barstools. It has a nice-sized pantry. The living room is small but it has a washer and dryer that comes with the apartment. Going out each of the bedroom doors has a patio. There are two patios, one in the front and one in the back. All the bills are paid including the water and the electricity. The cottages cost a little bit more but you don't have to do lawn care. They provide meals at a minimal cost. You just have to order 24 hours in advance if you want it delivered to your cottage. I met the assistant director and he was very helpful. The atmosphere is peaceful and the people are very friendly. They have an activity building with a swimming pool. They also have an outside area where you can play checkers. It's a new facility and a beautiful community. It's a little costly but there are ways to help you pay for it. They also give discounts for veterans and their spouses so you have ways to get help through the VA."

"My brother is now at Spring House at Lithia Springs. The biggest reason why we chose this place was the cost. It seemed very reasonable for what looked like a very nice-sized room with a bathroom. The facilities looked nice, and the food and the service seemed top-notch. They have different activities that are included in the price, so I like that. I haven't tried the food, but my brother speaks highly of it. They have painting classes, water aerobics at a local pool, they have Bible studies, they have the usual bingo, and movie nights, and some animals come in to visit. It seems that the staff is very caring and sincere."

"My mom moved into Amberley Senior Living. The staff is very nice. The people are very personable. They listen to what your needs are, and they were very cordial when you went to visit and have questions. The room is very nice. I don't remember all the activities. I know they do bingo. They do some exercises. Those are only a couple of things I can think of at the moment."

"My brother has been a resident in the Center for 2 months and he has been taken care of very well. I also have a cousin at the center (oh my God) they love on her as if she was their own. What I like about the Healing & Nursing Center is that if you have any questions or issues they will be addressed immediately. They are a very CLEAN center and have doctors ready to attend to the residents whenever needed. Awesome activities; singing , cross word puzzles and more. I feel as family members we need to check on our family members CONSTANTLY that are residents. I have found when being consistent in visiting and holding individuals accountable everything work out for my loved ones favor. And the Director gives us her email so that if an issue is not resolved, she will step in immediately. I personally give them a 5 star."

"I’m on a waiting list at Hearthside for two years and I know I’m close to the top of the list. The place is just close and walking distance to shops, walking passed restaurants. The rooms have built-in kitchen, solid countertop bar, and you have option to a 1 or 2-bedroom or even 1 or 2-baths. I like it a lot because of where it is. It’s my first choice. The staff seem very cordial and nice. The place is full and everybody seems to be happy there. It’s probably the most attractive to me and my wife. We’re handicap but we’re still able to live independently. I’m legally visually impaired and my wife has Parkinson’s, but we’re able to get around. We need each other’s help, so we need to find a place that’s really conducive for our lifestyle, where we can cook our own meals and be able to fellowship with others like us in our age group. The place has a movie theater, screened porch, garden spots and walking trails. "

"I was really happy with Providence Personal Care Home. I was misinformed when I was sent over there because my mother needs to have a nursing home and not an assisted living home, so they weren't able to help me there. But the place was really nice and very clean, and the people were very, very friendly. I was really happy with it, especially because it was a house and not a big facility. I didn't try their food, but it smelled good. The staff were very nice."

"Larry Moore Manor was very nice. There are two floors. Everybody has a balcony. That's what I like about it. The complex is friendly and clean and everybody is courteous. The management is easy to talk to. They have a garden patio and they have a courtyard. It's a high-rise and I'm applying to the garden apartments with a patio."

"The Nurses, Occupational Therapist, Physical Therapist, CNA's, cleaning service staff, food and Nutrician staff, Social Worker, Wound care specialist,Technicians, front desk receptionist all work together to help in the recovery of your love one. They always try to answer your questions to the best of their abilities. And whatever you need they try to make it available to you. I am so grateful for the care that was given to my husband during his stay at Christian City Rehabilitation Facility"
