Independent Living Reviews for Walnut Grove

June 05, 2019

By Connie

I visited this facility

Walnut Grove was very nice, but I wanted a little bit more room. The apartments were a little bit small. There were residents playing cards, and the ones I spoke with were very happy there. The staff who showed me around and explained all the activities was very nice and very professional. The dining area was very clean, and they had a nice array of food. The apartments were clean, and the layout was nice, but they're small.

Provider Response

We visited Walnut Grove and this particular one was a by the month rental. It was a very nice facility, but we want something with garages that are built-in underneath the building and that one did not have it. The staff members were very pleasant and very nice, and they took us on a tour of the place. It was overlooking a wooded area with plenty of parking. I had no complaints. They have a gym and you can play cards or whatever. It was quite a nice facility. It's just not what we're looking for yet.

Provider Response

Thank you for visiting Walnut Grove. We take great pride in our community and staff. You are correct, our garages are not attached to the building. As part of our 24 hour Concierge service we provide free valet parking for our residents. Residents let us know when they need their car and we have the car in front of the building waiting for them. When they return we assist the resident with any shopping bags they might have and return the car to the garage. Customer Service is our number one concern.

Walnut Grove was very nice. The staff was nice and considerate, but the room that I saw was rather small, so I don’t know what I am going to do. The food was good. The residents seemed glad to be there.

Provider Response

Thank you Alice for taking time review our community. I am happy to hear you had an enjoyable experience. I might suggest you broaden your search at our community for the perfect apartment. We have several floorplans with varying square footage. Please stop in again. We are happy to show you more options.

My mom is at Walnut Grove in a two-bedroom apartment. It is wonderful place for elderly people. They get together every day to do a lot of things. They have a workout room and hair dressers and a very good selection of food, which they serve three times a day. It's very well kept.

The apartments at Walnut Grove Retirement were nice. Even the studio apartments were a good size. The gal that showed us around was very hospitable; I couldn’t ask for a nicer person as far as that.

Walnut Grove was a beautiful facility. We ate there, and the food was good. I liked the different room styles. However, it's not a good fit for my mother, because it's only independent living. They did have care that you could get, but that was extra. A big concern also was the distance from the dining room. It was just too far and too much walking for her. Other than that, it's a very nice place, and I have no issues with the cleanliness.

The staff at Walnut Grove was extremely friendly. They gave me free lunch and took me on a tour. It was really nice and no pressure. They have studio, and one, two, or three bedroom. They have everything in it; washer, dryer, and stove. All the residents that I saw there seemed to be fairly happy and content.

I visited Walnut Grove, and it’s not for me; I’m not ready for anything like that. When I went to visit, I had a couple of friends that were there. They were very happy there. They were older than me, and I saw their place. It was a very nice facility; it looked very nice and very clean. It has a lot of activities for older people. Walnut Grove Park is right adjacent to it; they might go for a walk if they can get to it.

I am a friend or relative of a resident

She is in Walnut Grove, but she decided to hire additional help. She gets 3 meals a day, and somebody comes in, vacuums, and takes her trash once a week. Another thing they offer that is important to us seniors is transportation. You don’t have to have your own car. But if you chose to, you can rent a garage space and pay extra rent for that. She has a full kitchen with a washer and dryer, a stove, and a microwave which she never uses. And just like every place else, some staff are nice, and some are grouchy. Something different goes on every day. They have movies in their movie theater, and all the pay per views of major sports events, pinnacle clubs, and bingo clubs. When you go in, it’s built like you’re in a cruise ship. It has that main dining salon.

We've visited this facility and the people were nice and warm. The management team have a sense of support for each other. They provide 3 meals a day. The place was nice but the rooms were quite smaller than what I currently have. And the price is pretty expensive as well, closer to what I'm paying for right now. If only the financial aspects met our expectation, I would definitely love to have gone to this place.
