I did visit the Sterling House, and it was just way too small. The rooms were almost like a big hotel room; there was no kitchen. The staff was very good. They were on top of things and were very nice. It was just the size of the rooms, and she just wasn't ready to give up her own apartment. The dining room was nice, and everything looked good there. They have entertainment and stuff, and I think they also have activities throughout the week for them. Everyone I met seemed very nice and very caring. I think it is a well-kept place, but it is just not for my mom. She wanted her own apartment; she wasn't ready for a single room.

I visited this facility
February 29, 2012
I am a friend or relative of a resident
I have a grandfather who is currently staying at Sterling House, and think that it is an excellent assisted living facility. I admittedly don't have many other experiences to compare it to, but when I have visited him at the facility I can only describe it as a cordial, comfortable, and relaxed atmosphere. The staff is friendly and the residents seemed to be happy. I know that my grandfather certainly liked the place, and that says a lot as it was tough to convince him to move into it. The only reason I kept my review from being 5 stars was because I thought that they facility didn't encourage much of a group atmosphere. I realize that for many this may be what they desire, but I thought that there could have been a bit more socialization encouraged. Either way, Sterling house is a great place and I would recommend it to anyone in the area who needs assisted living for their elderly relatives.
