The Best Independent Living Communities in Flathead County, MT

"When I visited Buffalo Hill Terrace, it was all great, but a little more expensive than the other place I visited. The rooms were super. I saw a 1-bedroom, and another that's just like a studio. They have a lot of activities, a swimming pool, exercise equipment, and all that. They gave me a list of activities. They also showed me a library, it's bigger than the other one I saw. They have a little store. It's a bigger place but has a lot more people there. They have parking, but you have to pay for it. The facility looked good."

"We ended up going with just a regular apartment with some support at VilJoya. It's independent living, so it's a regular apartment, but they do like lunches and stuff there. I think it's great actually. My mom seems to really enjoy it. What we like the most is probably the food. The food is really good. They actually have home cooked meals. They have a couple of chefs that come in six days out of the week and that's really nice. The apartments are really nice. There is lots of flexibility. I don't have a lot of experience, but they seem to be a five to me. The food is great. They don't have too many activities. I'm satisfied with them. It's definitely homey."

"I got to visit The Springs At Whitefish. It was very nice. We saw one of their apartments. For my needs they have a limited capacity for Medicaid patients. This is what my mom will be. We could self pay for a little bit, but she needed to go to Medicaid. That limits our choices, and also memory care was going to be a problem as she gets further/further down to dementia. They have everything. It's like a little apartment house, like an apartment complex. It was really nice. We saw that it looked like a restaurant, it was nice. When I get old maybe that's where I'll go. The manager took time with us. She toured us even though she knew that it probably wasn't gonna work for us. She was very helpful. The facilities were beautiful."

"Rising Mountains Assisted Living was very well-kept. The employees were really accommodating and caring. The units were very nice."
