Applewood Village

When I walked into Applewood Estates, I was impressed with the energy, the people, and the decoration. It was stylish and comfy. I saw opportunities for growth, socialization, and good food. The staff person that took me on the tour was terrific. He was very knowledgeable and gave me a lot of pointers. The food was excellent. There was good variety. The dining room was attractive, open, and light. They have a swimming pool, gardening, bocce, and all kinds of things that anyone would enjoy.

This is a continuing care community - make sure to check out the assisted living before paying the huge upfront fees. They are one small room not nearly big enough to LIVE in. My dad passed away while living there and within that week they started showing his apartment without our knowledge and found someone who wanted to move into his apartment. The manager of resident services started calling me less than a week after he passed and proceeded to call me every week asking when we were going to have his stuff out. After the 4th call I finally said "it's only been a month" (the rent had been paid to the end of the month) and she replied "well actually it's been a couple of months". When I corrected her she had nothing to say. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL that is NEVER something you should say to someone who has just lost a loved one. After 4 months of phone calls to the equally rude financial staff, we finally received the unused portion of his entrance fee.

My mom's room at Applewood Estates is a very nice 1-bedroom apartment. The menu is fine, but the food is not my cup of tea -- I like my food more seasoned -- but the quality is fine. The staff is fine. They have a pool and the place is very resort-like and high level.

Applewood Estates was a good place; my brother would be comfortable there. The rooms were very nice, but the one-bedroom was a little small. They had bus trips into town, a library, and music. The staff seemed very helpful and knew everybody, but the place was so big.

I really liked Applewood Estates. It is one of my two favorite places so far. It's kind of far away but really nice. It had nice outdoor spaces, good-sized rooms, and a lot to do. For me, programs are important, and I was impressed with their programs. It seemed as though they had a full schedule of activities, including movies, talks, music, or cultural things which are important to me for my mother who is a very good artist.

I was not so impressed with the apartments at Applewood Estates. They had an indoor pool, exercise rooms, meeting rooms, an auditorium, and everything that most places have. It was spotless. They had a restaurant and a bistro; the food was excellent. The apartments were OK but not to my liking. I didn’t care for the living quarters.
