Independent Living Communities in Petal, MS

"Claiborne at Hattiesburg Independent Living is close to where my family is. I like that the apartments did not look like hospital rooms. I looked at several and they just kind of look like a little hospital room there. It's independent living and the place is beautiful. This staff is nice and accommodating during my tour. The restaurant was beautiful and the place was really good. It was just what I was looking for. They were extremely helpful to me because I've never lived in an apartment so I had a lot of questions. I only ate just one lunch there, but lunch was their big meal of the day and it was very good. It was a shrimp dish. There was no problem with anything in the apartment I'm getting. They're redoing and painting it. Anything that I need before I move in so I thought that they were pretty great on that. It's off of Highway 11, which is the highway that goes just south of Harrisburg. From there, if you want to take your car or the bus or whatever they have there, it's just kind of centrally located so it's a good location."

"My sister is in Covington Ridge Retirement. It's beautiful, and she enjoys it. It's a lovely place with all kinds of activities. I ate dinner with her once, and the food was really good. There are a lot of nice, friendly people there, and the staff is really friendly and nice. My sister has been there about two years now. She has an apartment with a spacious living room and a big bathroom that's well set up. It has a refrigerator, microwave, and stove. She also has a pretty big, nice bedroom with a queen-sized bed. They have a fenced-in sitting area, like a patio, outside the back door. I really like it, and it's comfortable. They do crafts, bingo, entertainment that comes in, and church services."
