Reviewer#JM101121b 2021-11-13 I went to look at Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit. The rooms were much smaller. There were no kitchen and laundry facilities in the rooms, you have to go down to the end of the hall. The only thing that is in its favor is that it is in Lee's Summit. The buildings were nice and clean. I did like the fact that they serve your meals, so the meals were included in your rent. So that was one thing in their favor. The staff members were very nice. They had a library and a place to get your hair done. They have buses to take you to places. They had a necklace you could put on and wear if you fell or something of that sort, that was included in their rental. I visited this facility

Pat 2021-11-01 Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit was a lovely facility with everything you could need. It was very nice, and I would recommend it to anyone who is in that age group and looking for that kind of facility. The individual who gave the tour was very attentive, very pleasant, was very glad to answer any questions, and showed us anything that we asked to see. The rooms were very compact, but they're very nice and pretty much what you would expect in terms of size. They offer studio-type apartments with very limited kitchen facilities and then there were also larger apartments with a full kitchen and could either be a one-bedroom or two-bedroom. I visited this facility

Tony 2021-10-24 I liked the setup of Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit. It's nice and clean, it seems like the staff was really helpful and friendly. The only thing is it's more like an assisted kind of living place. I know you can live doing your own, but I just don't think it'll be a fit for me. I'm 58 and I still work. As far as the meals and all that, I don't think I need all of that. But other than that, it was a nice place that I would love to live in. Everything there was nice. The person who gave me the tour was great. They told me to come back and try the food, but I got so busy yesterday, I forgot about it. But she did offer me a complimentary meal just to see how the food was before I check in with them. It was nice, clean, and well-kept. I think they have a patio and every unit had a deck. I visited this facility

Susan 2021-06-23 My dad moved into Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit, and I like that they have an in-house assisted living facility. They're very helpful; they do a lot of things to help my dad. They said he couldn't do an independent living facility, so they've combined the two, and they're doing a very good job. My dad enjoys their beautiful dining area, and the warm atmosphere that they have there. They have a nice dining area, they have an activity center, they have an in-house salon, and they have a very convenient laundry that's right around the corner from his room. There's also an outside access point where the family members can approach, and they don't have to go through the building to be able to get to his room. They're very welcoming to the families. Rides are included to go to doctors' appointments, and they have scheduled events to go to shopping areas. They have a van that takes them places on particular days of the week so they don't have to drive (or if they're not able to drive), but they can still go shopping. There's just a lot of questions we've had that they've answered. He's only been there for about a little over a month, and we're still finding new things that I think we have overlooked before. It's a beautiful park-like experience, and I don't have any complaints right now. They are incredibly helpful in all areas. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Gamica 2021-05-25 The place I lived before was Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit. I love living there, and I love the concept, but they raised the rent. My rent was $2000 a month, and they were going to raise it almost $200. I could not afford to stay there, and that's a studio. It's a lovely place, though. I would give it high marks all the way around -- if you have enough income to be able to absorb the rent increases. There's no cap on rent every year; the rent's going to continue to go up every year that you live at the property. I would recommend them to anybody who could afford to live there. I was just in a studio apartment, so that's really pricey for a studio apartment. The big winner there is that they serve food, and it has a dining-room type of atmosphere. It was almost like having a meal out with your friends. The facility is wonderful, beautiful, and breathtaking. They had activities all the time, except the year I was there when we had the pandemic. They had people come in for entertainment. They had people come in and do health recommendations. They had a nurse come once a week to check your blood pressure, your oxygen level, your overall being, and how you're doing. They also had a nurse practitioner check on you. It's a remarkable place, but it's also a high-end community. You have to be able to have the income to absorb the rent increases every year you're there. I am/was a resident of this facility

Lehn 2021-03-22 The most important thing about this facility is the director and his staff. They truly care about the residents. My aunt continually puts them to the test and their care never waivers. The facility is well maintained. The rooms are very nice and they have sizes to fit your needs. The dining area is open, airy with a wall of windows. There is a walking path on the grounds. They have scheduled transportation. The beauty salon is very convenient.

Karen 2021-03-06 Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit was excellent. The staff was very sweet, very friendly, and very nice, and they seemed to care about my mother's care. Of course she was independent, but it led to the fact that her Alzheimer's was getting worse, and she might not be safe there anymore just because she couldn't take care of herself. But I think it was a very good place if you are independent. My mother really didn't like the food, but she was at the point where she didn't know she could request something else, so if they brought her something she didn't like, she just didn't eat it. It was built probably in the 1990s, and the decor is reflective of that time. It has beautiful artwork and interesting things to look at, and they have a nice dining room. It is very reminiscent of the 1990s, and maybe it could use some updates, but overall it is still very beautiful. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Jeannie 2021-01-21 My mother lived in Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit. It was a wonderful experience. It's independent living, but they have a company there that will provide higher services if you need it. The staff was wonderful, the food varied, and they went through several chefs. They had daily activities, church on Sundays, three meals a day, Wii bowling, my mom loved to do puzzles, and they had movies. They're right behind Wal-Mart, and it's a very good location.

Teresa 2020-09-15 We chose Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit for my dad because of the atmosphere, the people that were in-charge, and because it fit into our budget. It was like an answered prayer, and it's over in an area that we wanted. When he wants to he will be able to visit the people in his church, and that was a big concern for him. He is independent, but needs a little help. The nurses will come to check on him and help wrap his legs. His room is just perfect for him. It's a small 400 square feet room, but it's good for him. He has a big bathroom and plenty of storage area. The staff is very friendly, and we call them to ask them if they can check on our dad to make sure he's OK. The food is not geared towards diabetics, but they do have sugar-free desserts and stuff like that, so it's a little hard to maintain on some level. They have a lot of different kinds of activities, but since the COVID some of them have been on hold. They haven't had one case of COVID and they'd like to keep it that way, which is wonderful. He pays $2,100 a month, which for me is a lot of money, but looking into assisted living areas out there it's not really as much as other places. For what he's got and where he's at, I think it's perfect for his needs and the money. I was very grateful that they gave each resident a necklace for emergencies, which goes straight to the emergency rescue or fire department. Like when he called for an ambulance, they were there within three minutes. They have a very good response time for him to access what he needs, so it puts our mind at ease.

EH 2019-10-01 Overall, my mom is pleased with Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit. The special they had for the moment was good as far as pricing. The apartments are nice. My mom has a small 1-bedroom apartment that has a refrigerator, sink, a patio, but no full kitchen. The rooms and staff are nice. There were times when the food has not been good, but overall, it's good. They have exercise classes, art classes, Bingo, and bridge, so they have lots of things to do.

Stella 2019-03-29 I thought Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit was very nice. They showed me around and gave me a brochure. However, when I went to visit, they didn't really go into details about things. It was more general, but when my parents went back, they went into more details. The dining area looked OK; it was clean. The rooms were nice, too. I visited this facility

Alicia 2018-10-01 Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit was nice but expensive. They had a good food selection. The two-bedroom that I looked at was nice. They seemed to have a good amount of activities. The staff was very nice. I don't have any negative things to say about the person who gave me the tour. They had a library, a salon, a hairstylist, and laundry rooms in each of the wings. I visited this facility

Louise 2018-04-30 We visited Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit. I was very impressed with the building, but as it turns out, my mom at this point needs more of a medical presence. We spoke with the director who gave us lots of information and gave us a tour. The rooms were wonderful and some had balconies. The dining room had a huge ceiling flooded with lights. We didn't eat there, but they gave us a little dessert while we were talking, which was delicious. I think it's a wonderful place if you're a little younger than my mom. They have lots of activities and they have quite a few residents there. It's a pretty big place with three floors. Some people still keep their cars there. It's definitely for those that don't need a big medical presence right away. I was very impressed with what I saw. A resident did come up and talk to us on his own and he explained how happy he was living there. I visited this facility

mildred415867 2017-05-22 It was nice and pretty. It has an on-site eating facility. The people were extremely nice and helpful. They provided transportation and had movies and libraries in their apartment wings. The rooms were very nice, comfortable, and a manageable size. They offered housekeeping services. It’s easily accessible, too, and the community was a nice size. I visited this facility

Sharon084712 2017-03-08 I was looking for a place for my cousin, and we had signed him up here. He will be moving to that place soon. The place was wonderful, and I am very impressed. The person who assisted me were great. Meals are being served, and they have their own transportation system and so forth. They have a chapel, a library, and anything a resident would need. I visited this facility

Richard468478 2016-12-28 It had a very clean dining room and clean and spacious rooms. The residents were all friendly. It had an exercise room. I visited this facility

Anonymous277384 2016-11-24 It had nice and big studio apartments, and I was surprised at the size. They have a ton of activities. They have a bus that you could sign up to go to Walmart once a week or to your doctor's office if it's a certain mile radius. It looks like they have a full schedule. The guy there was more like a salesman. He wasn't pushy, but he was more business. The food was OK, and the price was really good. Everybody was really friendly, and it was spotless and beautiful. What I liked about it was each room had a door where you could go out a little deck where you could go outside by yourself without having to have somebody assist you. They had new appliances and a little kitchenette area. There are lots of spaces to move around in the building like lounges and places with cards set up. I visited this facility

Nancy131383 2016-08-12 It is very nice, very friendly, and very homey. They serve three delicious meals a day. Mom has her own little apartment that she really likes. They clean her room and are very friendly. It's a very caring place. If she needs someone to come in and help her, we pay for that. They've been very good to her. I visited this facility

Lorna4 2016-02-23 It was very nice. The staff was very informative and gave us a tour of the place including an empty room. We didn’t really go into pricing because they have a no smoking policy, so we didn’t venture any further with them. Their dining area was very nice. I visited this facility

RK1 2015-10-28 Everything was very nice. Breakfast was served at 7:00, lunch was served at 12:30, and dinner was served at 5:00, and we were not comfortable. We rather had open sitting. However, I understood why they had to do that, because they had to hire people to serve. Also, you had to pay for your three meals, and that was in your monthly rent. We thought we could just do one meal. The portions were really small. However, the staff was very friendly. The place was clean and cheerful. They had popcorn. They had games going. Some of them were playing pool, and playing cards. They had beautiful art works on the walls. The cottages were very nice, and they had plenty of parking. I visited this facility

Susan110473450 2015-08-05 I was impressed with my visit. The staff was great. The rooms were exceptional. The setup was attractive and pleasant. They offer different activities; pretty much anything in that facility can do. We didn’t get into a lot of detail with it, but it looked like they had plenty of activities set up. They have places to do puzzles and games. Their dining area looked very good. I visited this facility

Caring103542850 2015-03-23 What I liked about it was that there was a lot of people out and active. The residents were doing activities -- exercise classes and playing pool -- and they were doing some holiday programs. The staff was very friendly and helpful, very informative, willing to answer, and would stop what they were doing to answer any question that I had. I had lunch there, and the food was good. I visited this facility

Karen80209150 2014-09-24 It was very nice and the people seemed to be very happy. They invited us for lunch and they had a resident to sit with us and to talk to us about the facility. We converse with her through the whole lunch which is very enjoyable and she was very nice. The rooms were very nice and they all had an outside window. it was large enough for king size bed if you wanted it, and the rooms were larger than most of the other communities. They had options like the main meal or you could pick anything that you want, or you could have other food that they had available. They have activities all the time, they go places, they had people come in to put on shows, sing-alongs, bingo, and Wii bowling -- which a lot of the ladies really enjoy. They had a large library with very nice seats, so people could just sit in that area and read if they wanted to. They could have replaced the carpet itself; though it wasn’t dirty, it was just getting worn already, but I would definitely recommend this community. I visited this facility

Chelsea4 2013-09-25 It reminded me more of a nursing home than an independent living. Everything was fine. The staff was very helpful. A man took us around. They had a help care. However, their rooms were too small and it didn't have a stove nor a refrigerator or a sink. I visited this facility

It had nice and big studio apartments, and I was surprised at the size. They have a ton of activities. They have a bus that you could sign up to go to Walmart once a week or to your doctor's office if it's a certain mile radius. It looks like they have a full schedule. The guy there was more like a salesman. He wasn't pushy, but he was more business. The food was OK, and the price was really good. Everybody was really friendly, and it was spotless and beautiful. What I liked about it was each room had a door where you could go out a little deck where you could go outside by yourself without having to have somebody assist you. They had new appliances and a little kitchenette area. There are lots of spaces to move around in the building like lounges and places with cards set up.

It is very nice, very friendly, and very homey. They serve three delicious meals a day. Mom has her own little apartment that she really likes. They clean her room and are very friendly. It's a very caring place. If she needs someone to come in and help her, we pay for that. They've been very good to her.

It was very nice. The staff was very informative and gave us a tour of the place including an empty room. We didn’t really go into pricing because they have a no smoking policy, so we didn’t venture any further with them. Their dining area was very nice.

Everything was very nice. Breakfast was served at 7:00, lunch was served at 12:30, and dinner was served at 5:00, and we were not comfortable. We rather had open sitting. However, I understood why they had to do that, because they had to hire people to serve. Also, you had to pay for your three meals, and that was in your monthly rent. We thought we could just do one meal. The portions were really small. However, the staff was very friendly. The place was clean and cheerful. They had popcorn. They had games going. Some of them were playing pool, and playing cards. They had beautiful art works on the walls. The cottages were very nice, and they had plenty of parking.

I was impressed with my visit. The staff was great. The rooms were exceptional. The setup was attractive and pleasant. They offer different activities; pretty much anything in that facility can do. We didn’t get into a lot of detail with it, but it looked like they had plenty of activities set up. They have places to do puzzles and games. Their dining area looked very good.

What I liked about it was that there was a lot of people out and active. The residents were doing activities -- exercise classes and playing pool -- and they were doing some holiday programs. The staff was very friendly and helpful, very informative, willing to answer, and would stop what they were doing to answer any question that I had. I had lunch there, and the food was good.

It was very nice and the people seemed to be very happy. They invited us for lunch and they had a resident to sit with us and to talk to us about the facility. We converse with her through the whole lunch which is very enjoyable and she was very nice. The rooms were very nice and they all had an outside window. it was large enough for king size bed if you wanted it, and the rooms were larger than most of the other communities. They had options like the main meal or you could pick anything that you want, or you could have other food that they had available. They have activities all the time, they go places, they had people come in to put on shows, sing-alongs, bingo, and Wii bowling -- which a lot of the ladies really enjoy. They had a large library with very nice seats, so people could just sit in that area and read if they wanted to. They could have replaced the carpet itself; though it wasn’t dirty, it was just getting worn already, but I would definitely recommend this community.

It reminded me more of a nursing home than an independent living. Everything was fine. The staff was very helpful. A man took us around. They had a help care. However, their rooms were too small and it didn't have a stove nor a refrigerator or a sink.
