Maplewood Park Place

Maplewood Park Place was lovely. The apartments were lovely. But you're buying an apartment, and there is an entrance fee. There's a monthly fee, and then there's the purchase. But they all provide food in one form or another. They give you 27 meals a month, so it was like one meal a day. I cook, so I may not have dinner every night in their dining room. They have an indoor pool and a courtyard, but they don't have any balconies. The person who took me around was great. We had a wonderful time. It's beautiful, and they have fresh flowers everywhere.

I toured Maplewood Park Place for independent living, and the staff gave us an excellent tour. She took us into one of the bedrooms that I'm interested in, and we didn't have anything negative to say about that. Overall, the place was excellent and the gal who gave us the tour was great and very, very friendly. They have a sunroom and a 1-bedroom, and some of the rooms had a den. We were there on a Saturday at lunchtime, so there weren't many activities going on but we saw a lot of the residents coming out for lunch. The gal taking us around always would introduce us to them. In terms of amenities, they have everything and they offer everything. They have a gym, and they have various trips you can take where you just sign up on the sheet, and she mentioned to us that they have three meals a day if you choose. The staff that I met were all very pleasant.

The lobby at Maplewood Park Place was like a five-star hotel. So, it was just expensive and the one-bedroom apartment we saw was very small for the higher price they have. Also, they had much older seniors in there, and I'm looking for a much younger environment, but they had more amenities because the building was much bigger. They had a library and a bigger parking area. They offer transportation, too. They offer visits to museums or different surroundings.

I have a lot of friends who live at Maplewood Park Place. I think they do a very good job. They are rated quite high in terms of quality. So it seemed to me to be an ideal place for people who are retired. They have various groups for playing games and reading books. They have a library and a recreation center where you can exercise there. The staff members are very nice. The food was good. I had dinner with one of my friends who newly moved in there. They have the amenities right there, and they would even be able to drive you to places. I don't usually see too many people moving around there, but I know they have events and meetings on Friday nights. I know they have different clubs. I saw the gym.

We visited Maplewood Park Place. The rooms were very nice, and the dining area was very fancy. The activities were amazing. They had trips to museums and shows. I only met the person who was giving me the tour and she was very good. The facility was very clean. There wasn't very much outdoor space from what I saw.

We were very excited when my father moved into the facility. The location is great, the facility is well maintained, and the staff is pleasant. However, this is not the place to go if you are retired military. The facility residents are not happy people. This unpleasantness, discontent, and liberal bias runs throughout the resident population. My dad is not happy there, and has had a steady decline on his outlook on life since he moved in 2013. As in life, a key component to happiness is the disposition of the people around you. These folks are not happy. If you care about that component, consider another facility.
