The Best Independent Living Communities in Cherokee County, GA

"My mother was living near Parc at Piedmont for 35 years, and would be able to utilize the area. She can stay within the confined place, and I also live in this area as well. It’s a beautiful, and nice facility in combination of cost also. Cleanliness was fine, and the rooms were spacious. "

"I toured Cottonwood Estates Gracious Retirement Living. It was extremely clean and well-kept. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. I like their setup for the residents, the cafeteria, and the overall amenities they offer there. They provide three meals a day."

"The staff at Celebration Village Acworth was excellent, the facility was excellent and what they had was fit for our needs. They have a game room, a bar, an ice cream parlor, and a bistro. They had a different look than the other place we toured. They had this big 22,000-square foot area where they had the game rooms, salon, and physical therapy. They always have someone on duty that would do medical stuff for you, and they also have a PA. They also do happy hour in the bar."

"Atria North Point was acceptable for me and my wife. The rooms were nice, and all in all the facility was very nice. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It was one of the facilities that I put on my shortlist. The only drawback was it is in an urban area. "

"I toured Village Park Senior Living. I like that everybody seemed to know the residents. They all seemed to know them, and they all seemed happy and cared for. They all seemed to care about the patients. They had everything they needed there. They had a salon and a garden plenty of places to walk around. They had dining options, too. It seemed very clean."

"The tour I had at Sanford Estates Gracious Retirement Living went well. I thought that the facility was clean, and the staff was friendly and nice. I noticed that they had a hair salon, but it wasn't in use. They also had a movie theater and a garden. The rooms were nice, clean, and bright. The food did not look appetizing, and the residents did not enjoy the food and would like to have the menu changed."

"We are choosing Varenita of West Cobb for my mother because it was new and we liked the people. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and happy. The place was large and it was very clean.

"It was very clean, and the furniture in the waiting room was nice; I liked it. The staff was very friendly, the dining area was OK, and I was interested in the activities."

"I'm staying at Celebration Village Forsyth. Everyone was so nice, so friendly, and so welcoming and that was the thing that convinced me. It was a very beautiful place, and the atmosphere was so wonderful. They have crafts, exercises, Bible study, and swimming. They have a shuttle service that takes you everywhere as a group and an individual shuttle if I want to go somewhere by myself. It's all very convenient. My apartment is very nice. I have a big bedroom with two great big windows, a walk-in closet, a big bathroom, a full kitchen, and a large living room. The staff is wonderful. They've gone out of their way to make my move easy. I have a housekeeper who comes in once a week, changes my beds, puts clean sheets on it, and cleans the apartment. It's very clean. I'm very pleased."

"The staff were friendly, and knowledgeable. They have a really nice room that we are considering. The residents were up-and-about playing cards, and putting together puzzles. It would be nice if they add a swimming pool. "

"My brother is at Ashwood Meadows Gracious Retirement Living. It's a wonderful place. The staff is very gracious, and the community area is amazing. I love their dining room and I love that they have activities. I love that they have an area there that families can come in and prepare meals and if somebody wanted to come in and have a Sunday meal, they certainly could. There's an area that can be rented out for that. They also have guest quarters, so, a family that's coming and caregivers that's coming in from out of town can rent a room there and stay on-site with their family members. He's been there about four or five years now. It's a retirement community, but they have sister agencies that can continue the care. You can go from retirement community living to assisted living and then onto memory care and then to palliative care. The staff is wonderful. They're compassionate, they check on the residents, and they make themselves available at all times. They do weekly trips; they have a bus, and they go on different outings. He's able to go to church. He's also able to go out and do shopping and outings, and then they'll usually stop and get something to eat. There's a little small in-house theater in there, too, with a lot of seating and they play older movies that are geared towards the older community. The place is fantastic."

"We toured Village Park Peachtree Corners. We really liked it, but it was just too far away from our house. It had a gorgeous facade, the staff was outstanding and helpful, and they helped us talk to the executive area director, and got over to the other place. The rooms were comparable to the other place, they had a pool, a gym, a nice food area, like a bistro area where you could get snacks if you missed a meal or just wanted something to eat. They had bingo going on while we were there, and it was social-distanced bingo, but they're making sure that the seniors have interactions. It was clean and maintained."

"Towne Club Windermere is a fine facility. My father has friends there and there are many single men, so he has company. It's close to me, so the location is good. His room is very nice. The staff is attentive and caring, and they seem very kind all the time. They're not grumpy or anything like that. The dining area is nice. He enjoys the food, and he doesn't complain about it. With COVID, I haven't been able to go eat in there. They've done their best to keep them busy during COVID. They have games and movies and things like that for them. In the past, I know they've had musical groups come in to play for them. They have a bus that takes them shopping and takes them out and about. They used to be able to go on trips. With COVID, it's hard to say because so much has been shut down, but so far, he seems happy and well cared for. He's getting his medicine on time, and I don't hear complaints from him. I've never had a problem with the staff. Occasionally, it takes a little long for them to get the food, but once they get it, it's good. Everything always seems clean and well cared for. He seems happy with the activities."
