The Best Independent Living Communities in Laurens County, SC

"Our experience with The Renaissance Senior Living has been great, much better than I anticipated. The facility is just really lovely and the staff is fantastic. They are very accommodating to Mom and the family. She is in the memory care and her room is very nice. They only have private rooms. So, she got a private room with a private bath and it's very well designed and kept up very well. The dining area is also very nice. It makes you think of home. The food is so fantastic and they offer a lot of different varieties. It is top of the list. They are very engaging with the residents. They let them go outside with them, accompanying them, and they have different games that they play. They offer physical therapy. They're very homelike rather than institutional. It's a beautiful setting right across from a small college. It's a brick facility, and it is very well-maintained."

"My top choice would be Harmony at Five Forks. The facility is clean. Alexis, who gave me the tour, was very helpful with explaining everything that happens in the memory care community, and also it is closest to my home. We did get to tour through the dining area and I was offered something to drink. It looks more like a regular apartment-style building. It doesn't look like a nursing home."

"I went to see Maple Brook Terrace. It was very well-organized and well-managed. The entire place is very well maintained. For the time that I was there, it was very clean. With everything that they offer, I think the place is worth selecting. I didn't get a chance to intermingle with the staff other than the lady who was giving the tour and she was an excellent tour guide. I didn't have enough time to participate in one of the lunches that they were having, but she took me to a couple of rooms. One of the residents also allowed us into a room and showed us what it was like inside with furnishings and all that stuff. The room was very clean and very organized. You could tell that somebody watches out for their well-being. I don't think there's anything more that I can say other than high praise for the way they maintain the place."

"I went to Quillen Manor to visit a friend. It's very clean, and no smell. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. When my friend's birthday comes, we have taken things for a party down, and they had accommodated us with a private room. My friend's room was very nice, and with a private bath of course. They have a beauty salon and a library. The residents have a bus when they go out to eat, or to take them shopping."

"We have my mother on the waiting list for the Legacy Reserve at Fairview Park. The staff members are very helpful and very friendly. They are a caring community. The rooms are very spacious and clean. They look very nice. The dining room is beautiful. It is set up very nicely. I would tell others that they're very helpful. If they have any questions, they will answer them for them, and if they don't know the answer, they will find it for you."

"My mother is a resident of The Springs at Simpsonville. I like the fact that they've got a friendly staff. They are very accommodating, and they offer the services that my mother needs. She has a studio with a private bath. Her room is single, so she doesn't have anybody else in there. It's large enough to accommodate her bed and to also form a sitting area. They typically have an activity in the morning. Like this morning, they were going offsite to a religious service. We ate there as a family when mother checked in, and the food was really quite good. They have a marvelous activities director."
