Independent Living Communities in Fairfield, OH

"I visited the Silverfern Cincinnati North's independent living community. I liked the one-bedroom apartment. It was beautiful, with a living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. It has its own washer and dryer for doing your laundry. It also had a dishwasher in the kitchen, so you don't have to wash dishes. When you first walked in the door, they had a beautiful fish aquarium, which was just so wonderful. I haven't seen an aquarium like that, and it's nice. They had two pools, and they had an area where you could sit in, like you're at a theater and watching TV. They had a place to do pottery and a place to do painting. They even have a place to get your hair done, and so many other things. It was really just wonderful. There's a place outside where you could grill, and they are building a little place to play golf. The staff is great. I saw a lot of people who work here, and they're all over the place. The guy who had us come in was great. He took me to see the whole place, and it was just wonderful."

"Evergreen is beautiful. The grounds are lovely; you’re never looking out on a parking lot or at another building. It’s all landscaped gardens and a lovely building. My parents haven’t moved in yet, but they had a 2-bedroom apartment coming available, and it was due to be completely remodeled. We felt like it was a little more upscale. They got brand new kitchen cabinets, countertop, appliances, and new carpet. They got to pick the carpet and the paint colors. The rooms and the dining room are very, very nice. The staff was very nice. They have outings and trips to the grocery. They provide transportation anywhere you want to go. They have musicians and guest lecturers coming in. They have art classes. "

"My brother is staying at Blue Rock Senior Living. There are very few residents there. My brother said the food is just tolerable. He says sometimes it's not that good, but he gets plenty of food. The room is very small, but he's making the best of it. I think they keep it very clean. The TV system that they have is Roku, so my brother cannot watch any Reds or Bengals games on his TV, and that's probably the biggest improvement they could make. There's one lady there who's been very helpful to him. She helped him set up his computer and other things. They do my brother's laundry once a week. They clean his room once a week. They have a stairlift, but it's very slow. Their courtyard and patio are very good. They have a very small library, so my brother goes to the public library."

"I liked that the rooms at Ohio Living Llanfair were very light, bright, and a good size. The staff we met was very good. They were just a lot more expensive and a little older and dated, but it was still very nice and very clean. They had very pretty grounds outside and plenty of activities such as bingo and happy hour. The dining area was also very nice."

"The Summit of Blue Ash is a very good community. We toured their assisted living community. They have all kinds of activities for senior citizens, and the rooms are very beautiful to live in. They have good staff there, and they work with the seniors really well. They take you out on field trips, or if you have to go to Walmart or someplace like that, they take you out like that, too. The lady who gave the tour was sweet and very nice. We sampled the food, and it looked really good. The atmosphere was really awesome, and the facility was very clean. It's an excellent place to be. I wish we could have afforded it."

"I like the staff at Barrington of West Chester, the roominess, it was very clean and affordable. The staff that gave me the tour were very nice and helpful. They gave me scones which were excellent. They just have a lot to offer and the upkeep is good. It's located only 20 minutes from my house, and it's right next to everything. "

"Great place to live. Parents feel like they are on vacation! Good people and food."

"I visited the independent living community of Traditions at North Bend, and it was very clean. They have reading areas and pleasant sitting areas for the attendees to just kind of relax and have community. They had a lot of different things going on as far as activities were concerned, and that was really nice. They have an area where people are able to exercise. They also have a therapy room for them to get their legs stronger, so they were very well equipped. The staff was great. We were met on time during the tour. They took us through the facility and even gave us a little parting gift, which is really great. Their dining area was spacious and very well-lit. It was not only from the lighting, but from the outside windows, which is very nice."

"My in-laws were here for a short stay and had a marvelous experience. From the food to activities and the caring staff it was a great stay all around. Would definitely recommend it."

"Deerfield Springs Retirement Community is a very nice facility. Everyone there is all independent. They've got a lot of interesting features that I didn't know about in the other retirement communities. The guy took me on a tour of the whole place, all the different rooms, like the exercise room, arts and crafts room, card tables, and theater. You name it, they've got it. I was overwhelmed, plus it's a very new facility. He showed me a couple of the one-bedrooms and also three-bedrooms. The only drawback I saw was they have a waiting list for two-bedrooms.The one-bedroom and the three-bedroom are currently available. It was immaculate, very modern, and very clean. All of the interior was beautiful. It was almost something I would see in Las Vegas. It's a resort style. People can come and go as they please when they want, but the nice feature that I thought was you can stay there month-to-month. There's no contract, and there's no entrance fee."

"Traditions at Camargo was a lovely community. The people were very personable and very helpful. The facility was excellent, and it looked great. The apartments looked very nice, very roomy, and very clean, and I think that it would probably be a good place to live. It had a refrigerator, a microwave, and a dishwasher. The dining area was beautiful. I met the chef and he seemed very nice. I liked the fact that they open at 7 in the morning and they close at 6, but you could go down there any time in between and get something to eat. They also had a place where you could get coffee, juice, and snacks at any time. The staff who assisted me with the tour was very lovely and very personable. The ones that I met were very helpful and concerned about how I was being treated."

"We toured Traditions of Deerfield. The person who took us through was very pleasant, and it's a very nice environment. Everything seems to be very congenial. It was nice, neat, and clean, and the whole nine yards. The rooms are nice size. We looked at a one-bedroom. I guess you call it an apartment, a living room, and a bedroom. They have a place where they have happy hours. The dining room was nice. They have a library and a nice courtyard. They have a menu, and whatever we saw looked like it would be good. It was a nice variety of choices and whatever."

"My dad is at Barrington of Oakley. The staff, the rooms, the food and the surrounding are all great. I would recommend it to others. "

"The Kendwood was very upscale. It had good quality, good food, and good activities. It was very nice and very well done, but it was also very costly. The one thing they could improve was if they could decrease the cost to make it more available. The rooms very clean. The staff was very attentive. They had a 28 meals a month plan. It was actually very excellent. It had a lot of good things about it; it was just a little over our price range. "
