"My mom will be moving into assisted living at the Courtyards at Berne Village. The atmosphere was wonderful and the kindness of the staff was fantastic. Allison, the sales leader, was tremendous, and the whole upkeep of the facility was very nice. They keep them busy constantly. They have shuffleboard, shopping, games, and they have a chapel. The place is also the most reasonably priced that we found."

"We toured The Gardens of Trent. We toured the entire facility. It was very nice. It was clean. The staff was very nice and very helpful. I think the manager, her name was Kris, and she was very informative. She walked us around and answered all of our questions. I had a very good experience there. The dining area was nice. It was well laid out for COVID safety as well. Everything was spaced out and there were some TVs in there, and people sitting together, and it was nice. It was a little dreary. There was no carpeting on the floor, so it was very cold. They could use an upgrade with some decorations and some carpeting on the floor. The other thing that I wasn't happy about was that they didn't have the ability for the residents to have TVs in their room. There was no cable or internet going into the facility. I asked if I brought my mom there if I could bring a TV for her, and they said that was fine, but there's no cable coming into the building. I wasn't really happy about that. The rooms were clean. They were cold. But they said if you wanted to bring in carpeting and curtains and things like that, you could bring stuff in for the room. They showed us a single room and a double room, and they were both a nice size, they were big enough. They had their own bathroom and a closet. A lot of people bring in their own blankets and mattresses just so that the residents can be more comfortable, and that was nice to hear. Everything looked very clean. They had just taken down some decorations and they were getting ready to redecorate for springtime. The grounds seemed like they were very well-kept. Everything was clean, neat, and very orderly. The staff mentioned that there was a salon. The staff were all very nice and very friendly. Everybody who walked by spoke to us."

"My visit was good. My first impression was correct, even from the outside the facility looked in great condition. The lawn and garden was meticulously manicured. The facilities were clean. The staff was very nice. The suite my grandmother lived in was furnished very beautifully. The amenities were on par with what I expected, they even had a salon. My grandmother tells me they provide transportation to and from her appointments. As far as the food, she said she wishes the food was better, but it's ok for what it was. The nurse that came in while I was visiting was very nice and responsive. Everyone we encountered was very professional. We were taken on a mini-tour, and I liked what I saw. The activities area was appropriate for the demographic. The kitchen area was clean, and there was a computer lab. We were informed that there were several therapists onsite. I would suggest this facility to anyone. "

"Liberty Commons had a private room, a room with two bedrooms with a shared bathroom, and a semi-private room with two single beds in one room which reminded me of a dormitory, where each person has a closet. They were bright and cheerful looking. The location is good and looked very nice. I thought it was a very attractive place and appeared to be very clean and maintained very well. The staff was friendly, helpful, and answered my questions. The bathroom they showed me had a shower seat that was slippery, which they don't recommend people to use. They had transportation to a local doctor's office if the resident needs it."
