The Best Independent Living Communities in , LA

"Toured the Windsor with my parents and it was amazing! The entire community was just renovated and everything is so bright and clean. The residents all stopped and talked to us because they didn't recognize us. They all told us how much they loved living there and that made a huge difference to my parents. They already made friends and they don't even live there yet. We toured the three different style apartments and they were all so nice. They were very large and everything was fresh and new. They really liked the 1BR and the 2BR. Every room or hallway smelled so clean, much different than our other tours. The marketer was so polite and charming and he had so much patience with my parents. Truly can not wait till they decide to sell their home and move into the Windsor. The food also looked really good, we were able to tour the dining room during lunch and had we not eaten beforehand we would have definitely taken the marketer up on lunch. Best tour by far!"

"I went to Azalea Estates of Slidell for my mom. It was a very welcoming facility. The director was very nice and very helpful as far as working with us on a budget. I got a tour of one of the one-bedroom apartments they have, and they were very spacious with nice amenities and showers and all that, so that part was a big plus. They have three square meals a day, nursing care, and activities. They shuttle the residents to and from doctors' appointments and the grocery store. And they have game nights and things of that nature. The staff was very nice and very, very helpful. The facility was very nice and well-kept."

"It was very nice. The assisted living is definitely the way to go for the elderly. It looked like it was restaurant style when they went to eat. They had a bar and a library. It was a very nice facility. The tenants looked happy there. What I didn't see was the day-to-day care, like help to the bathroom and help getting dressed. I didn't see that there, but they said it exists because everyone had their own room. But as for assisted living and for people more independent, it looked ideal. The staff looked very caring and very attentive, and they interacted with all the tenants. Clearly, people are loved and welcomed. The facility was very clean. They have a restaurant-style dining area. It was topnotch."

"Sage Lake Senior Living at Covington is a beautiful place to live. There are lots of areas to socialize. There are lots of activities for people who can do it. They have religious services, arts and crafts, and bingo. They keep residents very involved. Everybody is extremely nice and pleasant. No attitude. I tried the food, and it was delicious. The facility is beautifully decorated. There are chandeliers and a gorgeous dining area. The rooms are nice and clean. Everybody is well taken care of. They have church and take them shopping if they want to, but my mom hasn't done that. They take them to Walmart or Target occasionally if they want to go. As for value for money, I was paying much more at another place and this one is much nicer."

"The staff is very friendly and the ground are always kept very nice. All request are handled promptly and professionaly by a very professional staff. "

"My mother will be moving into Christwood, and she's going to be in independent living. I like the fact that it is so welcoming. It offers a buddy system right off the bat so that my mom can learn how to get around and meet people. It has tons of activities for her. For my mother, they have Bridge, singing, dancing, acting, choir, and writing, the things she's most interested in. We had lunch there. They have several places, and we ate in the cafe and it was delicious. The food was very good. The staff was super friendly and super helpful. It was beautiful, clean, organized, and easy to get around."
