I was a resident of Solarbron Pointe. I find it very nice, but it was just too expensive. The people who were residing there were very much like a nursing home. The staff was wonderful. The amenities were great, and nice programs. The facility was very well run and very appealing. There was no way you could be ashamed to say that you lived there. It's just that it was so terribly expensive, and I was running out of money. The staff were wonderful, they were good people. The only drawback was the price. I very often did not like what the kitchen pulled out, but I did have the option to return to my apartment and fix myself a meal that I wanted. So, I don't think I should penalize them for not being able to read my mind.

We went to Solarbron Pointe. It's very nice. The people and everything are really nice, but my mother changed her mind and decided she didn't want to go there yet. We saw two rooms, and they're nice. They have a rehabilitation part, and the dining room is like a cafeteria, but they bring the food to you.

I know a friend who lives in Solarbron Pointe. The community was originally supposed to be independent living only, but now they've expanded to other things. It has beautiful walking paths, and what they have are separate units. It is located in a countryside type of area, so they have beautiful walking areas. Some of the residents like to get outside and walk.
The facility was designed to be upscale. The staff was friendly and helpful, and they don't intrude on you when you don't want them to. They also had very good food, and you have choices each day. They had a lot of activities. They have a beauty salon, a library, and extra rooms for entertaining guests. It is a beautiful place.

My mom was a resident of Solarbron Pointe. She really liked it, and I was pleased. I think it was a good fit for her. It was a good facility, and the apartments were really nice sized. They're not like some of the rooms I've looked at that were so tiny. She always said the food was good and she said a lot of times it was too much, but that is because she does not eat anything. Prior to Covid, they did bingo 5 to 6 days a week and chair aerobics 5 or 6 mornings a week. At least once a week, they had a pianist or a musician that played in the afternoons. On Halloween, they painted pumpkins, and they painted sun catchers at one point. I know there is a group that plays clabber at least once a week. The staff was very nice.

Solarbron Pointe was very pretty, and they had a lot of activities, but it might be a little expensive for my father. The apartment was beautiful, there was a small kitchen, a stove, a life-sized refrigerator, cabinet spaces, and you can get get bar stools so you can sit at the counter. The two-bedroom apartments had a washer and dryer hooked up. They also have a patio where you could go outside and sit. The staff was wonderful.

Solarbron Pointe had independent living, assisted living, and a nursing home. It was a beautiful, homey campus. You can tell the people who live there really do like it. They served three meals a day and will take you to doctors' appointments and shopping. I was impressed with them. I was invited to come back with my husband for lunch. The facility was immaculate.
