I looked at Carroll Lutheran Village. It was good. There were a number of questions that the staff could not answer, unfortunately. It's a little far out there, and it's in a rural setting off the beaten track. The rooms were generously sized and well appointed. However, the staff were unable to answer important questions. It's beautiful countryside. There is a chapel on site. They have a fitness facility, and the dining was very attractive and appealing.

Carroll Lutheran Village was an excellent place. My mom is not there, but from what I could tell, everybody looked very professional, kind and caring. The apartments were very nice. Actually, I toured two apartments and I really liked the size and the layout. They're very nice. They showed me the dining room and then there was like a great room, but it's a room where they can sit down, read a book or play some games.
There weren't a lot of people. The dining hall was set up really nice, but because of Covid, everybody eats in their room. They're just being cautious, which I'm glad they are. I did not look at independent living, but I looked at assisted living. My grandmother was there a long time ago. It's a quiet, calm, and relaxed environment with a beautiful view. Everyone has been very nice. They're not pushy, which is kind of an annoying behavior that we all can be subject to sometimes, so I appreciate that.

My mom was in a facility named Carroll Lutheran Village. It was not a good scenario. She never got out of the therapy. She had terminal cancer. She was always in the skilled nursing part. That place was very nice. We were very fortunate to be able to utilize it. The doctors and the attending nurses, I mean everybody, had a lot of compassion. The staff was very good. The facility was very nice, very modern, and very clean. They had spacious areas. They had a cafeteria. They had social activities. My mom didn't participate in that, but they had all that available for the people who were there. They seemed very happy.

My mother went to Carroll Lutheran Village for rehabilitation after her hospital visit. I was disappointed with the lack of progress that she made there. Her stay was shortened. They felt that she was not progressing and therefore, they could not keep her on Medicare and they wanted to discharge her. I was extremely disappointed because they wanted to discharge on a Friday, which would then have me move her into a new facility on a weekend. Weekends are not the time to move anybody because the help situation is never the same on a weekend. When we got there, it was very disorganized. My mother did not get her belongings in a timely fashion. I understand they have to wash everything, but she did get her phone. I bought her a little radio, and she didn't get that. She didn't get anything until I called and had somebody track it down. Their communication was extremely poor. I would make many, many phone calls before I would finally get somebody to call me back. Nobody knew what the other person had been doing. There was no overall chart for my mother that could tell me this is what the situation is or this is her progress. It was very disorganized as far as I'm concerned, and I was displeased with the lack of progress Mom made. The staff members were nice, but they were not prompt in getting back to me with anything. Physical appearance of the facility was nice.

As soon as we arrived on location we were greeted immediately friendly residents and staff. They started out by taking us on a facility tour. I must say we were quite impressed. As soon as I get to an age where I am looking for a retirement home this will be top of my list. There is a putting green, tennis courts and transportation to areas in the city of westminster. They have brand new homes that just went up for those who don't want to live in apartment/condo style homes. The food there is very good as well. They have multiple places to eat for the residents and unlike some places like these it taste like real food. As well as a retirement community Carroll Lutheran has assisted living as well for those who need assistance and can't provide it on their own. Carroll Lutheran is the whole package for a retirement/assisted living home and everyone that I have talked to has given it rave reviews.

Carroll Lutheran Village had a pretty, country setting with trees and farmland. It feels very homey; that's why we liked it. We're already familiar with the community because we have relatives and friends living there. Everybody's very friendly, and they've made a lot of improvements in the past 10 years, so it feels comfortable. Once you buy in, they take care of you for the rest of your life, even if you run out of money. A friend took us to a good lunch in their little café there. They had a pool with water aerobics, swimming, and so on. They give you a meal allowance and you can eat at either one of the different places, or go over and take your lunch back to your place to eat.

Carroll Lutheran Village is very good. The grounds are great. My aunt and uncle live in the independent home, and they are very pleased. They have a beautiful house overlooking the valley. It has two floors and very livable space. They like their food. They have a meal plan and a restaurant or a little cafeteria. They also have the ability to cook their own food in their own kitchen. My aunt and uncle are very happy. They are able to participate in activities, like going on trips with some of the groups that are there. I think there is a little carpentry shop that my uncle has built a few things in. I know he participates in the community garden.

There's no Internet available at Carroll Lutheran Village, and that's a deal-breaker. Outside of that, I would have been satisfied. The apartments were nice-sized and were nice. I wouldn't have had to downsize or get rid of anything just because it wouldn't fit there. I could have chosen what furniture to take with me and wouldn't have had a problem going shopping. The grounds were pretty and very nice. They had different things for people to do there, and they had a pool.

My friends are very happy at Carroll Lutheran Village. They have an individual cottage as a husband and wife. They have a two-bedroom and a den, so it is quite spacious. There are lots of lights. It is close to the facilities -- i.e., dining hall, gym, etc. We had lunch there, and the food was fine.

We visited Carroll Lutheran Village three times. The reason we visited so much was because first they would give you a tour of the whole complex and a lunch. The second time we went, they had a real estate sales person available, and they told us how to prepare your house for sale, what the houses were selling for in the neighborhood, and they would give you a tip. The third time we visited was about finances, and they had a financial consultant there.
The place is gorgeous. They had houses that you could buy, they had apartments, they had assisted living, and they had a hospital. The staff that we met was very congenial, and any question that you asked, they answered it spot on. As for the rooms, they had an older section and they had a newer section. My husband hated the older section. It was too dark and dreary. However, they had new apartment building that was gorgeous. The layout was beautiful, and you would just love living in the houses. The sanitation was excellent.
The food was very good. They had a regular dining room, and they had a pub and grill. We ate in the pub and grill once, and we also ate in the dining room. They served a meal in the dining room for us to look at the place, and that was exceptional. However, the pub and grill food was just as good.

Carroll Lutheran was not far from where my son lived. We did not eat a meal there. Our hostess was very helpful, friendly and gracious. Everything was positive there. We did see one room, and it was very modern and well maintained.
