My father moved into The Fremont Senior Living. I've been very happy with them, the staff have been very caring, they answered my questions, I have asked for a couple of extra things, and that they have done. It's very clean, no unpleasant odors detected, bright, and everything is in good repair. The food is very, very good, and they have a wide variety of choices. My father enjoys the balloon ball game that the residents play a couple of times a week. He's played some dominoes and other things with them. I have heard some nice music, and others involved with music, they've gone on a ride in a bus, they have physical activity, stretching, and exercise. One of the residents is playing the piano, and the people are enjoying themselves.

My Parents have been residents of Fremont for 7 months now. It has been difficult for them as they have been so independent all their lives. Fremont Staff is Amazing and Personable! From the Cafe staff to the Techs and Nurses. The activities are interesting and fun. My Dad Calls the Activity Room “The Fun Room”. He loves the food served in the Cafe and invites us to eat every meal with my Mom and Himself. I love conversing with the staff and the way the staff work together is amazing!

They were very kind at The Fremont. They offer everything and the services are good. The room I saw was small. They have exercises, games, movies, and transportation.

We liked The Fremont. It was a little roomier than most, and the appliances were updated. The rooms were bigger than a lot of places. The staff was very nice. They had a club house and weekly nights at the movies. They also had workout machines, aerobics, and lots of activities. It was very well located, which is another reason we liked. It was convenient to the YMCA and a lot of restaurants, stores, and shopping. It was fancy and modern.

We toured Freemont. It was a huge, pleasant place with an outside setting. The staff who toured us was fabulous, very polite, knowledgeable, and answered a lot of questions for us. They were sitting around a big table, playing games, and having juice and cookies. They have TV rooms, library, computer room, and a big TV screen in the hall which was neat to watch.

I was very impressed with The Fremont. I like it very well. I like the fact that there is a room, a bathroom and a room again. They do share the bathroom but they have their own room. It was very nice. They were eating then and the food looked good.

I had a very nice experience at The Freemont. They had very nice services. They’re building a new facility, and it will be close to where we currently live. The dining facilities were nice.

The Fremont Senior Living was really nice. It was very expensive but really nice. The staffs were really nice, and they actually gave some information to help us in our search because they didn't have any openings at the time we needed. They actually gave us some good information besides just in their facility. From the tour they gave us, the rooms and apartments looked very clean and spacious.
Provider Response
Thank you for your wonderful review. We really strive to help every family who inquires, even if The Fremont isn't the best solution for the senior. I understand we couldn't fit into your budget, but hope we really did send you with a series of next steps to find that best solution for your situation.

We went to The Fremont Senior Living. My experience overall was pretty exceptional. The staff that I met was very kind and warm. Betsy was the tour guide, and she went out of her way to both accommodate a schedule change for us. She was very attentive and very pleasant. She was a wonderful person for being so young. The rooms are amazing, especially for the competitive price. It had very tall ceilings because it was a former condominium that was turned into senior living. The apartments are older condos. So while the facility itself is an older building (it's like 15 to 17 years old), it did not look like that at all. The renovations that they were doing in some of their rooms were really stellar.
The size of their rooms were large. They were the largest room size of all the places, and they had some nice design elements in the way that the kitchen was set up. Overall, it was exceptional for the price. Although it is in the middle of town, you can't really tell because they put the memory care and assisted living villas around the campus. It's kind of like its own small community. It's set far enough away from the busyness of some of the roads; you really couldn't tell that you're in the middle of the city. Overall they were on par with everyone else.

We moved into The Fremont Senior Living. First of all, the food is very good. We have one meal a day, and it's very good. I was very surprised. We have lots of space in our three bedroom, two baths, and a two car garage. They also do the housekeeping, and all the maintenance. We got a beautiful little backyard for our little ones, and our little grand babies to play in. It's really a God thing that we got this for us right now. It's a little downsized because we had a big house, and we need to really downsize since we're older. They're very careful with COVID, which is good because you don't know if this thing is over yet. They want you to wear a mask if you haven't been vaccinated. Most people in here are vaccinated, but we're not. I just don't think it's good for a person to get vaccinated, but that's our opinion. We're staying low so we don't have to worry about giving anybody anything or getting it, but they didn't make us get vaccinated, which is really funny. They ask us if we were interested two times, but they didn't force that. They did with other people, but I think it was before we came in, which was funny, so it's another God thing for us, because we just feel very strongly that it's not a good thing, but we understand other people's opinions. The staff is pretty young, some of the people that we were talking to were 20 or 30, and the other ones are 40 or 50. They don't have an older group of staff here, and they were all very nice. They got all sorts of activities. They have an exercise room, and a pool that is handicap friendly. They have bingo, aerobics, and they have Bible studies, which we may be interested in doing. The staff seems really nice, and the cook comes out to talk to you. You can order food and take it out, or you can stay and eat. They have a wide selection for food.

We went to The Fremont Senior Living. They really weren't able to show us a whole lot, as far as the rooms themselves, they did not show us the rooms. They just showed us the amenities for the senior living community like the dining area and the living area. It was very clean, neat, cheerful and inviting. The staff is very friendly. I thought it was a great place.

I did an in-person tour of The Fremont Senior Living. It was a very nice community, quiet, spacious, and with great staff. I'm very happy with it. We did the independent only because of the COVID.

The Fremont was very good and clean. The staff was excellent. The activities appeared to be appropriate, like morning workouts. The food was good. The only thing we had a problem with was it was hard to get out onto the street because of heavy traffic.

I was very impressed with The Fremont. They have their own personal home because laundry is in their own apartment. They don't have to go out down the hallway to do their laundry. The apartments were very nice and roomy, and the facilities were also nice. They have an exercise room and all kinds of things. We got a calendar of activities and they are very busy people.

Thank you, Lorri for your kind words. We strive to make this an active community where friends become family. The holidays are coming, and with them brings more activities. Please stop by again and join some of the activities. We have coffee, tea, and hot chocolate to the chill off of the cold days.

The Fremont was very nice and clean but a little expensive. The staff was very friendly, seemed to be very caring, and knew most of the residents by name. It seemed to be a home rather than a hotel.

We liked the Fremont. We liked their space, they had more space in their rooms, and the rooms were well laid out. They also have quite a bit of closet space. The grounds were OK.

The Fremont was a very nice facility with roomy and nice apartments. Everyone we dealt with was very nice and interacted with my grandmother, not just me. The whole tour was nice. They showed us a beauty shop, an activity center, and a dining area. It was more upscale, clean, didn't have an odor, and was a much nicer facility.

The Fremont was very nice and up-to-date. They had lots of different floor plans, but I was impressed with just the place overall; it was up-to-date, nice, and pleasant smelling. They had lots of different young people working there who were pretty upbeat. I was there several times, so I don’t think they were necessarily putting on a show for me. They had different sizes of rooms from single studios to much larger rooms. I really just looked at one of the smaller ones because it is just my mother by herself. It would not be two people or two wheelchairs in there. Their dining area was pretty open, and you could get most anything you wanted anytime of the day. They have Sunday brunch every Sunday with different stations around like an omelet station or a waffle station, and all the people who live there can have their families come and eat with them. They seem to have newer facilities, more activities, and more things -- just activities going on in the place.

The Freemont is a very nice facility, and they offer from the very basic all the way up to Alzheimer's care. They had an exercise room which was something my father-in-law would be interested in, a little library, and a calendar with different things planned and different activities that they could get involved in. I was very impressed with them.

Fremont was nice. It had independent little house duplexes which were awfully nice, but to get there you had to go outside. I had a friend who was going to go to the Fremont, and she’s going to have one of the duplexes. When I was there, they were setting up an outdoor barbeque, but it was raining that day, so I did know how well it went. We also went to the lodge part of the Fremont, and they were waiting for someone to come back. They kind had a red carpet out for somebody to come back from the hospital or something like that. I just remember all the people right there waiting for a person to arrive. I thought that was pretty neat. The menu looked good. They seemed to have good food to serve. They had probably the nicest rooms. I remember they were more modern, newer, and more open. I looked at both the duplexes and the two or three stories building. They were exceptional.

The Fremont was very nice. It's a little confined, but they cater to their patients. Everything was very good. The dining room was small, but they pride themselves on serving good, healthy food. They have a cook who caters to the residents in how they want things and what they want. They have some Alzheimer's patients that just come for daycare. It is limited to I believe 16 patients. It's a large community but most of them are able to live in the homes on their own. I was very impressed with the memory care section.

I like that the Fremont has individual small houses. With regards to the rooms, they let you do anything you want. You can change the carpet, and they give you a $1000 move-in allowance. They also help with painting or whatever. The staff is very personable and caring. They are willing to answer any questions or do anything that you want. They invited us to eat lunch there, and the food was very good. We also met the chef. The facility is very clean, and it's new. It's only 4 years old, and so everything is very, very nice. They have a lot of different activities that my parents were interested in. They are not there yet because they are still waiting to sell their house.

We were able to visit The Fremont when we were looking at the retirement apartments. The facility was large and more modernized than any other retirement communities we went to, and we were very impressed with that. They were more open and updated. We really like that. The prices were some of the most reasonable prices, which surprised us. My mom is going to be moving in there next month. The staff were very friendly and also make time for us when we come in with questions. They were very attentive and helpful. They didn’t have as many social outings that some of the other communities did, but they went to different grocery stores every Tuesday. They went to Wal-Mart every Thursday, and then they did have occasional outings where they went to movies or to other types of entertainment activities. They have a lot of social activity there on the premises.

The Freemont is a wonderful retirement community! It consists of both apartments and villas. Residents have the option of renting or buying. The apartments are absolutely gorgeous and fully equipped with a stove, microwave, garbage disposal, and dishwasher. The Freemont is pet friendly, as long as residents pick up after their furry buddies! They offer all kinds of amenities such as a gym, library and yoga room. Monday through Fridays, the staff at The Freemont provides their residents with a self-serve breakfast bar in the mornings, and tasty yet health lunch. The residents are allowed to choose between two different entrees, and don't forget the dessert! Every day the wonderful staff at The Freemont organizes fun activities and games for the residents to take part in. Certain days they play bridge and some days they just have an arts and crafts day. The Freemont is all around an awesome retirement community! They truly help their guests really enjoy their retirement years!

My mother-in-law will be going into The Fremont Senior Living. It was wonderful, and we really liked it. The staff was excellent. It was clean, warm, and cozy. You get the fuzzy feeling when you walk in. It looks like a home. The location was perfect, and the neighborhood was very nice. It's an excellent facility.
