John 2021-02-23 I moved into Solstice Senior Living at Columbia. I've been here a couple of weeks now. There are things I would like to see better, but by and large, it's a very nice place. Each of the rooms has a balcony of some sort, and there is a lake in the back, it has a very nice duck pond. It's a pleasant-looking place; they have a lot of new people that they're training. Compared to a lot of places around, it's pretty reasonable. The reason I chose it is because it's independent, but I need a little more support system than just being in my apartment. And here, there's a home-health nurse that can help me out do some things, and the staff do some things for me as far as getting the room ready and everything. The apartment I got is a very large 1-bedroom; I get three meals, laundry, and housekeeping. They put new carpet and new paint in the room before I move in, and new blinds. They've treated me pretty well. The food kinda depends on the day, and I was disappointed one day they just served Hamburger Helper, which for the price I was paying, seemed a little bit below par. Some days it's really good, some days it's pretty bad. There's also physical therapy available in the building. I am/was a resident of this facility

Kathleen 2020-08-01 My mom is a resident of Solstice Senior Living. We chose it because it was nearby and the price was right. Also, they offered us a rebate. She has a studio room and receives nursing services. Her room is very nice. I have tasted the food. It is not her style of food, but it is good. The activities have been suspended until the end of month. The living atmosphere is very good. Everything has been good. The staff is really good. The food is also fine. However, because of COVID-19, the food is delivered to their room and they don't have as many options as they would if they were going to the dining room. The place is nice. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Ron 2020-02-11 Solstice Senior Living at Columbia was very nice. It's independent living and I would've taken my mother there, but she wasn't a candidate for independent living at that time. Even though it's a fairly large facility, it had a nice homey feel to it. I saw the menus, how things were being prepared, and how they were taking care of things, and I was incredibly impressed with them. The staff I met was all first-grade. They had in-house activities and a bus takes them to pretty much anything they would like to go to. They had a very nice outside area in the back overlooking a very nice little pond. They even had boating and swimming there. The facilities were great. I visited this facility

Mike 2020-01-08 I chose Solstice Senior Living at Columbia because of the location, it's close to the VA hospital which is where my friend gets all his care. The staff is very friendly and seemed to be very good. His apartment is just a studio but it's nice, roomy, and has everything he needs. There aren't really different levels of care there, but there are different services you can request. So he can request for things like laundry assistance and stuff like that, but he's still able to maintain himself for the most part. The dining area is very nice and the food seems to be very good, we were there for lunch once. They have a movie area or they can play different games like bingo. They have activities there, and they have a lake with a dock outside where they can fish if they like, there are pool tables and an exercise room. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

MT 2019-09-03 I was very impressed with Boone Landing (Solstice Senior Living). But as I recall, they only provide 1 meal a day, that's the only negative about them. Their rooms were outstanding and I was also very impressed with those. They had a very nice dining area. I'm a veteran, and it's a little out of my price range so I applied for VA assistance but I didn't receive assistance, so that's one reason why I didn't move in. This community is in a class by itself. I visited this facility

MB 2019-03-30 I'm living at Solstice Senior Living at Columbia. Right now the food could use a lot of improvement. For example, we're supposed to be down there before 8:00 for breakfast, but tjis morning we weren't served until 9:00. I don't know what happened, but a lot of people were discouraged. They also have a lot of people who don't show up on Saturdays, so they fix their food and take it to the rooms before they serve the dining room, and I feel like the dining room should be fed first. There are several activities available like yoga, there's a TV, exercises, bingo, walking, and trips to the mall, so they have a number of things. The staff has been very cordial. There's a chapel, exercise equipment, and a movie theater. I am/was a resident of this facility

John 2018-10-31 I didn't find the food particularly good at Solstice Senior Living at Columbia. I asked what time is lunch and they said they sit down at 12:15 and eat at 12:30. I got there about 12:15 and I was very hungry. It was a good 45 minutes after 12:30 before I got anything to eat. I didn't find the food to be all that good. The two-bedroom apartment was less expensive than most of the one-bedrooms I had seen. It was in its own building that opened onto the sidewalk that ran back and forth. It had another opening from one of the bedrooms that went out into a little alcove with plenty of shade trees. I would have been hooked right there if it hadn't been for the food. I liked the apartment very much. It was very spacious and had two bedrooms and that would have been a plus especially given that it was less expensive than some of the one bedrooms I had seen. I visited this facility

Sue 2017-10-18 The apartments at Boone Landing were very nice. We saw some people doing activities. The residents I saw playing dominos seemed content. It was very clean. If my father-in-law had wanted to move, we would've made the move. It had some rundown areas, but otherwise it looked pleasant. I visited this facility

J.T.652026 2017-04-11 If I were to go somewhere, I would go to Boone Landing. It was wonderful and more like a community. It didn’t smell bad. The rooms were spacious, very nice, and comfortable. It was easy to access. I visited this facility

Phyllis844622 2017-03-13 Boone Landing was pretty good. It was strictly one-bedroom or a two-bedroom apartments. It had a very nice setting and was very close to doctors. It's on a busy street they call "doctor's row." I was concerned about the noise when I need to open my windows. We saw some lovely, affordable apartments with a lovely view of a big pond with a fountain, but there weren't any washers and dryers in the apartments, so you had to go down the hall. I visited this facility

Gene H. 2016-12-28 I visited two or three rooms that Boone Landing had available. One was a single bedroom with a living room and bedroom and a microwave but no oven in the kitchen. They had exercise rooms and different activities. The staff was very nice. I visited this facility

William116214250 2016-05-10 We chose Boone Landing, and so far it’s been great. We have been here for about three weeks, but it’s looking very promising and pleasant. We have been very pleased with the situation, the staff, and where we’re staying. The staff is very well-trained, extremely friendly, and willing to help and serve the people there. I would recommend Boone Landing because I feel they’re a good place. I am/was a resident of this facility

Caroline18 2016-03-23 Boone Landing was very nice, well kept, and clean but too expensive for me. They have a little pond that you can fish in or sit next to. They also had exercise rooms, game rooms, a theater, and visitors who came in to do exercises with residents. They provided three meals a day. One thing I didn’t like about it for myself was that the rooms didn't have full kitchens. You can have a microwave if you want one, and I think they did have a refrigerator, but there wasn't an oven or anything like that included. Otherwsie, they were very accommodating. I visited this facility

John111045250 2015-09-09 We moved in to Boone Landing, and their food is very good. They are good at portion control as far as calorie intake. They make you aware of what foods to consider on the menu. The maintenance was reasonably good. The building was nicely painted inside and out. Their air conditioners are in good working conditions too. I have no complaints there, and overall they do a very good job. I am/was a resident of this facility

Anonymous108407550 2015-06-11 I find Boone Landing very pleasant. They serve three meals a day. They have very nice people. The only drawback for me is that the women outnumber the men and that they are older and a little more disabled. My apartment is elegant. I have two bedrooms, a living room, a dining area, and multiple closets. It is very nice. The food is quite good. I am/was a resident of this facility

LHT 2013-05-31 Boone Landing is a huge facility. It was in a good location, close to the hospital. They have all the amenities. The staff were wonderful and interactive with residents. I had a meal and the people I was sitting with just feel appreciative of the staff. The food also was fine. However, when I was shown one of the apartments, there was a smell of smoke. I have asthma and this is a major thing to me. I haven't been back there since. I visited this facility

Hi, John. Thank you for your review. Would you mind calling our executive director? We take pride in our Elevate dining program which features daily, chef-prepared meals and menus driven by resident feedback. Our wait time rarely is longer than 15 minutes from sit down time to dining, so we’d would very much like to hear more about your experience in hopes of avoiding future incidents. On the plus side, we’re glad you liked our two-bedroom apartments. Thank you.
