Independent Living Communities in Burlington, WA

"We went to Windsor Square for a visit, and it was a very good facility. It was clean. We saw the activities that were going on, and it was very good. "

"Grandview Village was very nice. They were very friendly. They followed up with me and were open to all different kinds of options. However, they don't have memory care, which we feel to be a possibility for my mom in the future. Nevertheless, the staff was great, and I was able to tour their studio and respite stay rooms."

"I am in Skagit Valley Senior Village and I am very much pleased with everything. I choose this because this is the best. They have a monthly calendar for the schedule of activities and they send out weekly calendar for the residents to know what is going on for the week. They have menu for the meals and if ever we didn't like what is on the menu, there is another page with the list of food we can choose from. We have a monthly meeting with the heads of the kitchen and the servers where we can tell them our likes and dislikes on the meals. They also ask about our special meals and allergy because they post them in the kitchen so everyone will know how to prepare the meals for us. There is also a large private dining room, which we can use for special events, but we need to reserve it ahead of time to avoid conflict with the others who wants to use it. The staff takes care of our needs and meet with our once a month. The housekeepers inform us what time they will be in the apartment to clean it. They allow us to use our own beddings and they towels and they wash them with no extra cost as long as they have our names and room numbers. If ever we have visitors from out of town, they can rent a room with meals included for only $100. I really love it here and this is the most reasonably priced place I have ever seen. I am recommending them other 100%. "

"The Woodgate Apartment is the place for me. I like how it looks, the safety, and the people. I've met quite few residents and they love the place, too. It's also just 3 miles from my kids. The manager is a lovely woman. I like that she's very understanding, very caring and would go the extra mile for the people that live there. The grounds are beautiful. Every little place has a little yard. I'm very happy with that. "

"We like Salem Village very much. We have our own apartment, we do our own cooking, and we have our own laundry. It's like a little house all of our own. We're on our own for activities. We have a car and a garage and we go out every two days to do shopping. There's a landlord and he's very helpful and they take care of everything outside of our place and inside if it needs fixing, but we have to keep our own house clean. "

"I liked La Conner Retirement Inn because it was smaller. It was very congenial. We had lunch there, and the food was quite good. I liked the way the market team and the other staff seemed to respond to the people in the hallways. I liked that they didn't have a set time to eat. You could go within the 2 hour period of time. It was more like a little restaurant. They had one entrance, and I thought they had 60 rooms. It was three stories high. They a room where they had some kind of craft, but I don't know what they were, and I thought they had card game. They had a baby piano, and I knew that people played the piano maybe once a week or so. It was out in the country, so they would have a bus or shuttle tour out into the country area on Sundays. From what I saw, I don't really think I had anything to say that needed to improve on because it was the only one that I saw that I really liked. You had service in your room, and you weren't separated out. Both assisted and independent living were in the same place, taking part of everything in the same way. It wasn't segregated. If I needed that type of service or a placement, that's the one I would choose. "

"The Cap Sante Court Retirement is very clean. They're very personable and helpful. They're happy there. I think they treat you more like a name instead of an apartment number. It's a good place. The staff is excellent. The food is very good. There are plenty of options. It could probably use some updating as it's older, but it's very well taken care of. They have a lot of activities. I've been busy and haven't been able to participate in it. It's the least expensive place that I toured. I chose this one not because of the price, but because of what you get for the price."

"I am very impressed with the rooms and apartments in Chandler's Square. They were excellent. I only met one person, and she's the one who showed me around. She's very pleasant. I looked at the dining room, and it was also very pleasant. "

"We really liked Summer Hill, and if it is possible for my mom to come here, we would come here. All of the apartments were spacious, and it was a beautiful facility. The staff was the best; they were just really about answering our questions and being a problem solver. They have all sorts of activities not just for their seniors. They have a support group for the residents who had memory issues. "

"My husband and I used to live at Warm Beach Heath Care Center. They didn't have an assisted living as such, that's why we moved. They stuck me in the hospital, and they wouldn't let me out. It was wonderful until I got stuck in the hospital there. I liked where we lived. They just didn't have assisted living, which I particularly needed. It's a retirement community, and it has a nursing home. We were in a mobile home, then moved to an apartment. Lunch and dinner were included. There were usually a couple of options on the menu, and it was good food. We could sit with friends and visit until this COVID thing came up. We really enjoyed living there. I really liked the apartment we had. My husband also liked it because he could get out and roam. It was connected with Warm Beach concert grounds where they do Lights of Christmas, and he could get a nice hike in there all the way down to the beach and back up. He really enjoyed that part."

"Woodrose Apartments is a nice facility, but it's outside the price range that I was looking for. We were shown the amenities and facilities in the common-use areas. The common-use areas were very nice and very clean. They have very friendly staff. They have rooms for Bible studies, games, and puzzles. They have a small athletic center with treadmills and a limited quantity of weights. The facilities were very nice."

"The Vintage at Arlington Senior Apartments has decent facilities. There's no in-suite laundry, but they have multiple laundry rooms on each floor. There were no balconies. It's not a bad place, but there are better. It's independent and no meals are provided. They have resident-lead activities, like game nights and Bible studies. They have a puzzle room and a billiards room. The particular employee I met with seemed a little new and didn't know absolutely everything. So it wasn't a bad experience, but after visiting some other sister properties, it was clear that that employee was new."

"Affinity at Bellingham showed me two apartments. They completely redo these apartments after every resident. They freshen them up. They use new paint, put new carpeting in, and just keeping everything up to date. They were really taking care of the building and the apartments. They have a lot going on. They have entertainment, movie nights, an area where they have pool tables, soccer board tables, and a bar. They stream some of the newest movies, too. The people were very helpful."
