My parents have moved into Edencrest at Riverwoods. Everything is great. They are very helpful. There is good communication. They are making sure they are checking in with me and making sure my parents understand what's going on. The staff is good, and they check on them all the time. The rooms are comfortable. They are big enough for what my parents' need. They have bingo, music, and sightseeing. They keep them busy. The living atmosphere is good, clean, nice, and organized. In terms of value for money, it's basically the same everywhere. It's expensive no matter where you go, so it seems fair.

My mom is a resident of Edencrest at Riverwoods. The staff members are good. They serve their lunches and suppers, and the food is good. There are lots of activities. They have Bingo, and they take the residents places. Everything is good.

We have placed my mom in Edencrest. They are fairly new so it is a well-maintained and nice environment. The food has a nice variety and is pretty good. They have regular activities on nights, lunches, and weekends. I feel comfortable because I feel like she is in a safe environment, so that gives me peace of mind.

I liked Edencrest, but I couldn’t afford it; they don’t take public assistance and that was a problem. It was a self-contained apartment, and they said the nurse would come and see me anytime. They had some activities and exercise. I liked what I saw. It was very convenient for me.

Edencrest is top notch and fantastic. I couldn’t be happier with them. The people work their tails off and are very flexible. If someone needs something, they don’t say, "that’s not my job." They all work together and are a team like I have never seen. They ordered pizza for the guests and all the people. That was a big hit. You wouldn’t find better leaders. For Christmas, they really decorated, decked out Christmas trees, and really made the place look beautiful.

We went to Edencrest, which I like the best. Everything was nice. The rooms were good, but it was my parents' opinion that they thought the rooms were too small. They have different kinds of games and a schedule of activities. They have exercise classes and monthly get-togethers where they find different outings to go on. We didn't taste the food, but they did offer. They were very nice, and everything was really good.

Edencrest At Riverwoods is a new place; it's very nice, updated, and very clean. The staff was very welcoming, very positive, and informative. The dining area was very clean. There was nothing that I was not impressed with. It was roomy and warm, and the atmosphere was nice.
