"The Village Veranda at Lady Lake is beautiful. It's new, it's probably about two and a half years old, and some of the units have never even been lived in. It's very competitive in pricing too. They have assisted living, which my father was in for a little bit and it is wonderful. I cannot say enough for the staff. He's in memory care now, we're pleased with it, and the staff is wonderful. I think they are getting ready to break ground for an independent living that's not built yet. The rooms are nice. My father was first in assisted living in a 1-bedroom apartment. It had a bedroom, a living room, and a kitchen. They're new, very modern and the design is up-to-date. In memory care, his room is really big too. It's not as big as his apartment in assisted living, but we got almost all his furniture moved over there. I can't find much wrong with it. The rooms are probably even bigger in memory care too than in other places we've looked at. The food is good. It's not a 5-star restaurant but the fact that you see a lot of people eating it, then it must be good. They have a menu, a couple of daily specials that have choices of the things you want, and the chef will accommodate any wants you may have. They have lots of activities in assisted living. There are different activities all the time. There are crafts, they have a library, and a lot of music people come in. Obviously, in-memory care, they have more memory-type activities. They encourage them with games and puzzles and different people come through to speak or do music. Their goal is really to keep them pretty much busy all day so they don't just stay in a room and do nothing. Most people are out and about all day, so you don't see them lying around sleeping. The place is very nice. If something needs fixing, somebody's right there, right away. There's no luxury swimming pool or anything like that, but they have a huge courtyard in both assisted and memory care that are nice. Some of the residents have a little garden-type thing they have going where they grow things. The staff would go out of their way when I had questions. I could call them on the weekend and it's not the least bit inconvenient. They will reach out to me with multiple calls if they need something. They don't just wait, they call you. One of them even takes pictures. My dad has been in memory care for not very long. They had taken pictures of him interacting and doing things, and they texted them to me. It's only like 25 people over their memory care so the staff can spend a lot of time with them. They have a lot of parties. They just had an Oktoberfest yesterday. The staff is very interactive and my dad loves them."
