Rooms are very nice. Bedroom, Living room and kitchen. Mom has been there a year and she loves all of the activities. She participates in exercise daily and loves the craft time. It was not long before the staff knew her by name. Even the maintenance crew! The dining room has delicious food. I eat with her every chance I get! Georgetown Place exceeded our expectations for independent living.

The dining service and food selection is outstanding at Georgertown. I appreciate that we are able to buy a dining ticket and eat with our family member. I also have attended their special events, like the craft show and luau. They are very well prepared for and enjoyed by family members. I believe the pool is a plus. I, along with the grandchildren, come to visit and love taking a dip. My mother enjoys taking a walk daily in this back area around the pool as well.

Resident care and housekeeping are excellent. Staff and residents are nice and cheerful. Food and dining experiences are exceptional. My mom has been in this facility for 6 months and they have been very receptive and accommodating with her dementia episodes. Communication has been excellent and very informative. Excellent activities and scheduled events to keep residents active. Puzzles, board games, video games, corn hole, etc. keep everyone engaged and socially active.

Mom is really happy here. She says it is home! She gets the help she needs yet feels she is still independent. She loves the staff, especially James, Stacy, Nell and Penny. Everyone is kind and caring. Thank you so much for making it easy to have her there. The rooms are big enough but not too big. They are clean an well maintained.

I recently downsized and relocated into a senior living community. I explored several locations in Fort Wayne and settled on Georgetowne. I first moved into assisted living to wait until an independent living cottage was available. That has happened and now I'm in a cottage. I want to share reasons one should consider Georgetowne. The entire staff is experienced, knowledgeable, respectful, and caring. I found that this translates to residents and sets the tone for the environment. Staff and residents welcome newcomers. I am amazed at the expertise of the technical/maintenance staff that maintain these facilities. The dining staff is exceptional with well planned meals and service. Activities are well planned monthly for all at the complex. You have the opportunity to have a chat with the Director monthly to share concerns, comments, or ideas. There is a cottage chairperson who is great at staying in touch with those of us in the cottages and addressing any concerns. I encourage anyone looking for a great assisted/independent living location to visit Georgetowne Place.

Georgetowne Place was very nice. I love that they had a pool in the back. I think anybody would enjoy that. They showed me a two-bedroom that they had available, and it faced the pool. It was far enough away, but they had lovely grass, and the grounds were beautiful there. The rooms had kitchenettes. They had washers and dryers in each apartment, which was great, too. They had a patio off the front entrance way that had an open court behind the building. I did not go out there, but I could see how pretty it was. They had a garden and stuff. The dining area was clean. The building was nicely laid out.

My mom has been happily living at Georgetown Place for 3 years. Recently she fell and broke her ankle resulting in her dependence on others for the most basic and private needs. The staff at Georgetown Place have been wonderful! They are a caring, loving group of people. They have been very helpful and supportive to me as I learn how to assist mom as well. I have renewed respect for these healthcare professionals! They do not have an easy job!

My wife and I have lived here for over four years. Quite frankly, there is no place that we would rather be. Our two bedrooms, two bath cottage is more than sufficient for our needs. We are very close to the grocery store, the library, our dentist and our doctor. The administration here is excellent and has the concerns of the residents at heart. We are very content and look forward to many more years here at Georgetowne Place

We toured Georgetowne Place. It looked a lot fancier than the other ones we looked at. It wasn't as homey and looked more hotel-like because it was so big. They had all the amenities and activities, plus they went out to do different things in the community like go shopping and fun outings for the people. They had a memory care unit, and there was also a dining room. We had to take an elevator to go up to another floor. The rooms were very nicely set up. There was hardly any countertop in the kitchenette area at all, other than that, it was very nice. There's a courtyard in the back with a swimming pool, which was very, very nice. And then there was an outdoor balcony thing over the courtyard from the dining room. The people were very nice.

I stayed at Georgetowne Place for six months. I was in independent living out in the cottages. It was not attached to the main building, but I did go over there for meals. It's actually a standalone cottage, and there were two units in one building. It was like a two-bedroom apartment with a one-car garage, a full kitchen, and a big living room. It was just like having a small place of your own, but they would come in whenever I wanted for cleaning, changing the bed linen, and so on. The staff was very good. My mother lived there about five years. Some of the staff from when she was there are still there. They actually knew my name because of my mom. They're very nice people. It's just five-star all the way. They're a super clean facility. They're on top of their maintenance, plus they have a swimming pool, which was nice. I didn't really spend much time in the main building. They have card rooms, game rooms, and activities. They have a bus available to take you to doctors, shopping, and so on. Every once in a while, the management would have a cookout for the people living in the cottages. My mom had her own one-bedroom apartment in the main building. The dining room is in the main building. They had a professional chef that was taking care of their dining room, and the food was excellent. They would wait on you at the table just like in a restaurant. Everything was good. I'd go primarily for breakfast. The dining area was very nice, and there were people socializing. It was kind of expensive. I think it's more expensive in the main building because that's where the assisted living was, and you had the amenities in there that you could participate in if you wanted to. It's probably the best facility in Fort Wayne. I've interacted with probably a good half a dozen staff, including the ladies that come over and do the cleaning. Everybody was just super nice. They're just a little expensive for the Fort Wayne market.

My mom will be moving to Georgetowne Place. She liked the size of the community, she liked the fact that they were all one-bedroom apartments, and she was pleased with the amount of activities that was scheduled each day. The physical appearance was good. It appeared to be well-maintained. The staff was very polite and very helpful answering all our questions. We did not try their food, but we visited the cafeteria, and it's more like a dining room. It's actually set up like a restaurant where they can go in and sit down and somebody comes to the table to take their order and brings their meal out to them and comes back to the table and collects the plates. So it's more like a restaurant. When we were going around touring, my mom saw people gathered together at numerous places on each floor, playing cards, doing puzzles, and playing games. The apartment was nice. Each apartment has its own kitchen that has an actual apartment-sized refrigerator, not a hotel-sized refrigerator. It has a stove, a dishwasher, and a microwave in every unit. They all have their own washers and dryers in their unit. It is a one-bedroom apartment.

Georgetowne Place was OK, but it felt dated and needed updating. The apartment I saw was average at best. The staff was fine; I forgot her name, but she was helpful and friendly. It was Sunday when I visited, and nothing was going on at all. I checked the dining area, and it was dated and needed some updates, too. There was some food out, and it was OK. I think the place needed some serious updating.

I've known Georgetowne Place since the building was built because we used to live a couple of blocks from it. It was fine, everything that they do with their assisted living they include the memory care that can go. It was beautiful. They have added on, they have gardeners, and they have a lot of activities.

Phil

If Georgetowne Place had an opening, we probably would have moved Mom in there. The staff was courteous. The tour guide knew everybody's name, and they knew her too, which was very nice. They have bigger rooms where families can arrange to have gatherings. All the staff members seemed courteous. The food menu looked very good. They had a movie room, an activity room and a nice dining room.

Matt

We like Georgetowne Place very much. The staff is very helpful. The food is very good and flexible. They have card games and parties for different occasions. They really went out of their way to make sure my mother attended some of the special functions. They have a salad bar and a typical-restaurant style menu. My mom can get whatever she feels like. If she would like, they can also bring the food to her room. During the tour, we showed up unannounced, and of all the places we went to, they reacted the best as far as not having an appointment and not being prepared to receive us. They still gave us a very good tour and they were very friendly, and everybody's very friendly going forward.

Georgetowne Place was my favorite. The rooms were nice, efficient, and accessible. A group was out getting ready to go somewhere when I was there. The people were walking around and it seemed like a nice and friendly place. I saw an exercise room, a library, and a pretty nice bathing room or spa.

Kim

Georgetowne Place is the one I'm leaning towards right now; they're at the top of the list. The staff is excellent. They helped me out, they didn't bug me, and they called me back just to say, "How're you doing?" They were very attentive and very nice. They would come out to help you and do everything. The place is absolutely beautiful. The rooms are beautiful, too. They're very well-maintained. The neighbors are nice. It is a quiet community.

Georgetowne Place is the one that we were most impressed with. The rooms are spacious with 2 bathrooms. This is the one we're recommending to a couple, and we hope they would move in. The dining room had little private areas. The people there were more active. They were building for more activity areas, too. It's very spacious. It just seemed like a really nice place to live in. It doesn't have a continuum of care. If you needed to go to a nursing home, you have to go somewhere else. It's very spacious inside and outside.

Everybody at Georgetowne Place is very friendly. The place is very clean, and there are a lot of different activities to do. The restaurant was nice. They offered a complete 1-bedroom apartment with a small functioning kitchen, and it has everything you'd find in a normal kitchen.

Carol331708

Georgetowne Place was a little bit dated but very nice, plus they're fully remodeling. I liked that I saw people out and about in the community. I did not eat there, but I saw them eating, and it looked like they had a nice variety. The dining room was bright and clean. They had nice, pretty back area. The rooms were a decent size.

Georgetown Place was very nice, and I liked it. It was a bit pricey for my mother, but they were very kind and showed her around. It was an older facility but kept up very nicely. They had activities posted and had day trips to the grocery stores. The dining area was very nice, very accommodating, restaurant-style, and you could get food any time you wanted. They had a very nice outdoor pool.

We looked at a one-bedroom apartment at Georgetowne Place that had a large bathroom, kitchenette area, bedroom with a door, and a living room. The feature I liked the best about it is the washer and dryer in the apartment. If we end up in Fort Wayne, we’re leaning toward Georgetowne Place because of the washer and dryer in the unit. The staff was very friendly. The dining room was restaurant-style. My mom couldn’t read the menu and tell them what she wanted, so we would just say give her what the main menu item is every day. They have a game room and little groups for playing board games.

Visitor47

Georgetowne Place was very nice. It did not have a lot of activities going on. The apartments were very nice. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. They also had a swimming pool.

The people that showed me around in Georgetowne Place were friendly. I had lunch there; it was real good. I’m sure I could be happy there also.

I am waiting to get in at Georgetown Place. During my visit, the staff was very pleasant and very knowledgeable about the place. They were able to answer most all my questions. They studio and one bedroom as well as two bedrooms. They have one bathroom with walk-in showers. They have a lot of light as well as a lot of windows. Their dining area is very clean, and the tables were nice with flowers in them. They take the residents out to eat sometimes and to stores. They also have bingo and games.

We went to Georgetowne Place, and we ended up choosing the place for my mom. What we liked about them is that they have a separate cottage, and that is what she wanted. They have a pool, and she gets two meals a day. They have all kinds of cards and games. They have a library, a billiard room, and church. They also have activities like Wii bowling and crafts. They do have a beauty and a barber shop. It has everything that she needs. They have been really good about if she has something wrong, and they fix it right away. They also check on her every day if she has checked in, and we don’t have to worry about her falling or just lying there. Everything has been really good, and I have been impressed with them.

Mom moved into Georgetown Place on the 1st of September. She's in independent with the option of getting assisted care if she needs it at some point. It seemed to fit her. Similar type of apartment that she had, only a little bit smaller. I knew that the meals were something that were important to her and this has a lovely dining facility. I hear about the food when it's not so great but she's enjoying it. They have weekly out to the grocery store, they do that two or three times a week. She's involved in either card playing or dominoes just about every night of the week. They will post events that they're doing bus trips like to the Philharmonic Orchestra and one time, it was just a nature drive. I've been really happy with the encounters I've had and my mom seems pleased if she has something maintenance-wise that needs to be taken care of in the apartment. It's usually done in a pretty timely manner and done well, too. What I really appreciate at Georgetown is the fact that there is someone at the office there 24/7 so if there's a concern even in the middle of the night, I know that my mother could receive help so I feel a little more comfortable with her at Georgetown because of that. I think it's the fact that she is living closer to me now that helps a lot but I think in general, she is happier here.

My mom is a current resident of Georgetown Place. It is a very nice facility. My mother has macular degeneration and she is almost blind. They care for her. Their staff is more hands-on. They check on her a lot more than the other place where she was before. They're just doing a really good job. They also have lots of activities. Food is excellent. They offer restaurant-style food. They also have an excellent menu.
