My aunt has moved into Elmhaven Manor. We were able to visit the community personally. When it was apparent that it was very serious they allowed us to go by ourselves and looked at the apartment physically. It is great. The community is very friendly. Everyone seems very nice. They welcomed my aunt and they said, "You're going to really like it here." I'm very impressed with them. The staff members are so helpful. It is a very nice place.

My mother-in-law lives in Elmhaven Manor. It is the one that she picked. It is very clean and looks like it has been remodeled recently. They have lots of amenities. Lots of people are walking and talking around. They only serve one meal a day, but my mother-in-law doesn't eat that much. They don't have car service, but they have two different kinds of shopping. I don't think all of the food is fresh, but my mother-in-law seems happy enough with it. It is a nice place, and her room is very nice. The staff members seem to be very cooperative. They had a market last week where people could bring things in to sell or buy.

Elmhaven is a nice and newer facility, but they don’t have as many activities. The staff was very good. There are one- and two-bedroom apartments. They have musicians come in, do crafts, and have physical therapy and a beauty parlor.

Elmhaven Manor was wonderful, but it was just strictly senior living. My husband, my brother, and I went there and saw the accommodations, which were nice. The people were very friendly. It was very clean and had a lot of activities going on all the time. The only drawback was that there’s nobody at the facility from 8 at night to 8 in the morning, and it doesn’t elevate to assisted living. The price was right, and the rooms and apartments were all lovely and decent. We looked at a 1-bedroom apartment, and there were ample storage closets. The kitchen had electric instead of gas.

Elmhaven Manor was clean as can be. It had no smell, and it was absolutely gorgeous. I only met one lady, and she was very nice. There were one-bedroom and two bedrooms.
What really impressed me was the location. It was neat, clean, and the rooms were nice. The one bedroom was livable and very nice.

We ended up finding Elmhaven Manor. So far, it has been a fairly smooth transition. They were helpful for the most part. They have an excellent activities director who is really involved with all of the residents there. She does a lot of activities with them. Other than that, it hasn't been long enough to make a judgment yet.
They have in-house activities. They do weekly church services. They have movies every Saturday, but they have community service, like community activities with concerts at a local venue, picnics, barbeques, arts and crafts, and bingo. They do cards, like bridge tournaments. So far, with one exception, all of the staff has been really, really good. We had a little bit of an issue with the manager. She was a little bit difficult, but everybody else was very, very helpful and just a joy to work with.

We were happy with Elmhaven Manor. The rooms were spacious and the staff was great. The food was not to be desired but it was a work in progress.
