I liked The Rivers, but I didn't like the accessibility. I liked things close and they didn't have it. Otherwise, I think that would have been a nice place. The facility was very attractive. They have nice grounds and I have a little dog. They have benches that we could sit on. So, that was all very appealing to me. The staff was very nice. I felt it was a very welcoming community and that probably would have been my second choice if I was going to go someplace. The dining area was also attractive and appealing. They had a beauty salon. There was flexibility. I could take my meals or I didn't have to. I liked the walking area, too. It just wasn't for me.

I love The Rivers. I thought it was a very nice campus. It was beautiful on the outside, with lots of areas to explore. The staff was wonderful. She walked us through what the process of moving looked like. Then we met the residents there, and they were all wonderful and happy to be there. You didn't see anybody sitting around looking miserable. The rooms were clean. They weren't huge, but they were good-sized rooms. The hallways were all nice, clean, and wide. It seemed like a well-run place. The meals weren't included in the base price. They had a library and a bridge club where they played cards. They have lots of group activities. It was built in the 1990s and still looks fantastic.

I went to look at the Rivers. The lady who gave the tour was really nice, but the building needs a lot of attention. The screens were brown, and the patio was black. They need to put some money into their building.

What I like the very best about the Rivers was they had more windows than anybody else. They had the most windows, they were very nice and good-sized windows. The lady that gave the tour was very knowledgeable and very upbeat. For all the questions that I had asked her, which were many, she answered them with fluency. She was very helpful and she had been there the longest of the other two places I toured, as a manager. So she was really well rehearsed in terms of the facility, the staff, the food, the parking, all that stuff. The rooms there was also a very good size. One thing I really enjoyed was they had a center island with a sink in it, and it also had a dishwasher that looked out to the living room. We weren't offered to try the food, but the dining area was quite large. It's also connected to a really big social area with a big piano, and it's also right there when you walk into the place, so the main dining room was very open. They have buses that take them out for shopping, appointments, or activities. I have a friend that has been living there for a few years, and now she's introduced me to her friends who live there. So I go there and play dominoes almost every Saturday.

My overall experience with The Rivers is very positive. The woman who showed me around was kind and nice, and we saw everything that I might be interested in. She listened to me, and we saw places. I don't have good spatial relations, so seeing something makes a big difference for me. She introduced me to a couple of people. They were all nice and very welcoming. I wanted to know if there was a way to garden, not individually, but I could help with major gardens they already had. So everything was really good. I was looking at a one-bedroom, a den, and a two-bedroom, and I found out the two-bedroom was too big, and I didn't need it. The one-bedroom with a den was idyllic, but it doesn't come up very often. When I was looking at the square footage at the foot of the one-bedroom, it was very good, so I'm pretty sure I can fit my goods in it. It had enough space for me. The staff was very respectful. I loved the people. They were all super nice and super welcoming. I saw the dining hall and the activities areas. I saw the fitness room. They have sort of a soaking pool. There are some paths out back that are nice to walk on, but we didn't go on them. It was a little chilly. They had a lot of activities. Some are fitness related, there are some that would be for a bigger group, they're in the process of buying a bus to take people to the supermarket, and they have a book club. They have various things I probably want to try. The living atmosphere was excellent.

We toured The Rivers. The community was kind of depressing. The tour lady was over the top and a little bit too outgoing. She was rude to my dad. She didn't mean to be, but she offended him. She was nice, but at the same time, she was a little overbearing. They have independent living and assisted living. They also had a whole bunch of issues with food because of COVID, and she kept blaming everything on COVID. They didn't have a lot of choices for food. We saw the rooms. The ones that were remodeled were fairly nice. They did not have (which I found very weird) very accessible showers. They still had tub-type showers, which was not going to work for my dad. Overall, they need to listen to the person who has the needs, not their children. They need to engage with the person who would be moving in there and understand them.
