Willow Creek Senior Living

We toured Willow Creek Senior Living. They were friendly. What we saw of it was nice. It's one of the older facilities there in Elizabethtown, but well maintained. The staff seemed very nice. The dining area was OK. The outdoor area was nice, and each unit had a little patio where you could put a couple lawn chairs up, and that was very attractive. Other than that, there wasn't a whole lot of outdoor space there. There were trees and everything. It was attractive looking.

I liked Willow Creek Senior Living very much, except the quarters were just too small. It was lovely, seemed very well managed, and were very well staffed. The dining rooms and all the common rooms were lovely and well decorated. It was a little outdated as far as colors are concerned, but it was furnished very nicely. They had studios also, but the one-bedroom units were so small I couldn't get even a third of my furnishings in there. I just couldn't consider it because it was so small. I have a lot of books and things that I don't want to get rid of, and there was absolutely no place for anything there. I didn't have a meal there, but they had a lovely dining room, and right now because of COVID they're serving the residents in their rooms. I saw some of the trays and the food looked very good, very appetizing, and the presentation was very good. They had activities and they had someone to direct that. They had exercises, a spa, massage room, and a number of things. You couldn't want for anything except more space. I have two sewing machines and I still use them, but there would be absolutely no place for them in that unit. I would have to drag them in the closet. It didn't have that much space to store things like that. Everybody was lovely. I don't think it could be better.

We went for an in-person tour at Willow Creek Senior Living. They were wonderful. The staff was very sweet and they made my friend feel right at home. They were very, very friendly. It was clean and very homey. It was very warm, very decorated, and it had a very homey feeling to it. It was nice. We didn't see a whole lot of the buildings, but they were nice. The residents were very friendly. We didn't go into the dining area, but the apartments were lovely, clean, and with plenty of rooms. One of them had just recently been remodeled, so they were in very good condition, nice, spacious, and perfect for one person. I know they had a hairdresser and workout area. If I'm not mistaken, they had a spa, but we didn't get to see that. I remember the staff telling me they had some spa facilities.

I took my mother and we toured Willow Creek Senior Living once, but she wasn't particularly impressed. It's the more affordable but also older piece of property. Their common areas are rooms that are basically converted, whereas some facilities have big open rooms like you would see in a lobby of a hotel. These places have converted living rooms with a single room going into it. The hallway is narrow. The big plus is that the apartment is actually an apartment. It's a bedroom and bath, and then a separate living room, it's not just one big efficiency, and has got 2 distinct rooms to it. So that was nice. We were looking at memory care, and the outside area is totally closed in, all concrete patio with raised box flowerbeds. But there's no grass or anything, and the 6-foot fence keeps you from seeing anything except the concrete patio. Whereas in some of the places, they have a courtyard with grass and flowers, actually planted on the ground, and not raised flowerboxes. So it seems more closed-in than other places we've looked at but at the same token, those were more expensive than this one. The staff did not seem particularly organized. Considering that we made an appointment, and they knew that we were coming, they didn't have the information together for us. Their food was good.

My father was a resident of Allegro in Elizabethtown, Ky. for almost two and a half years and recently passed away at 94 years old. My father lived 5 miles from town and after several falls, it was time for a assisted living facility. After visiting several locations, we liked Allegro best based on the facility, employees, and the feeling from the residents. It was a great decision. We could not be happier with the responsiveness of the caregivers, the staff, and the management of Allegro. After three months of sadness of losing his home, dad suddenly realized that everyone at Allegro had created a "new" home and a family type environment.and became involved with the numerous programs that they provide to the residents. We will always be grateful to Allegro and their people.

We were able to find a place very close to where my aunt was already located. The name of the place is Alegro Senior Living in Elizabethtown. A big reason we picked this facility is its location. It is very handy for friends and family members to visit her. It has been very good. If you ask my aunt, she will rate it as 5/5 because she is really happy. They go out at least once a week just for a sightseeing drive. My aunt enjoys that because she hasn't been able to go out much. They also have an awful lot of people that come in the facility to entertain the residents. There are School groups and church groups that come in and play music, read, or sing for them. I had a meal there, and frankly I don't care much for the food. But my aunt thinks that breakfast is the best meal of the day.
