A beautiful facility located on top of the mountain. The staff is very outgoing and caring. Under new management with positive changes. Ongoing renovations since February 2024. The variety of food is fantastic! Modified diets including vegetarian menu. Affordable room rates compared to other private pay communities.

After a recent visit to this facility I'm very concerned for the elderly who are living there. This place is so disgusting and dirty no senior citizen should be living there. The furnishings are old and rundown. The floors were very dirty and needed trash picked up before any vacuum could possibly be used. , the rooms are small and gloomy. The staff were very nice and friendly, After see what I just talked about I didn't have any desire to see the dinning area.. It is so san that any human must live in these conditions

I visited this facility looking for a placwefor my loved one. Staff was nice and helpful. I knew very shortly into my visit this was not the place I was looking for. The facility was very dirty and unkept. The floors needed vacuming for it looked like a vacume had not been used for a while. The lounge area was badly furnished. The so called small sunroom was very dirty with filty large trash can overflowing. The entry door was decorated nicely was the trash can was overflowing with a lot of flies. Food containers from food brought in from another place containers were still on a bench and a little on the concrete. It appeared to be a very unhealthy place for my loved one to stay. I do not reccomend this place.

I visited during July 2023. I was shocked at the condition and could not beleive this facility is allowed to be operating as a home for the elderly. The hallway leading to the lounge and some rooms was narrowed because one side of the hall was lined with stacked boxes of supplies also a dirty broken down desk chair. The lounge area was poorly furnished and dirty. The floors appeared to have not been vacumed for many days. The redidents room I visited had a puddle of urine and in another ares a large puddle of dried up urine. The person I visited smelled of urine and feces. The bathroom was very dirty and the person we visited is in a wheelchair so therefore must leave her room and go down a hall to a bathroom that could accomidate wheelchairs. The small room had two beds and the bathroom was being shared with two addition people that did not stay in that room. This made the bathroom shared by four people in a room for two. The sunroom was filthy and very small. I would not concider this a sun room. The male resident we visited had not been shaved or had a bath for several days. I was not made aware of any activities for the residents.This building should never pass inspection in the condition I found it to be in. How can the beautiful city of Asheville NC allow the elderly people who live there to wake up each morning in a place this dirty and unkept. When I left the building, the trash can on the front porch was overflowing with garbage and flies. Garbage was left on the two chairs and floor where people had been eating there. something was wrong in the dining area causing a male staff member to take trays of food to the rooms. Several times I heard him use a four letter vulgar word ,I assumed he did not like to take trays to resident rooms. This place surely has germs of every kind because of the filthy conditions. Please Asheville, make this a better place for the elderly who live there. I could NEVER walk out the doors there and leave my loved one to live in such a filthy, gloomy sad place. God please be with the poor elderly people who HAVE to live at Chuns Cove assisted living with no other place to be

Chunns Cove is good. There were a few speed bumps when we were getting my grandfather in, but we all worked through it. He likes the staff and his room and hasn't complained about the food. The community is on top of the mountain, so he likes that he's back with nature. His first room wasn't that nice and his roommate has dementia so they moved him, and everything's great now. They do bingo and have a library, common rooms, and multiple places for the residents to walk around. They were very fair in letting us bring stuff in for him, like the TV, because he likes to read and have his own coffee machine in his room.

Chunns Cove is pretty organized, they have a waiting area, and my mother is usually in the lounge area. They have couches and chairs, a large TV, a piano on one side, and the nurses' desk is opposite that. There's a large outside area, they have a basketball hoop, trees, flowers, and plants going around. It's very pretty.

This is a terrible place to put loved ones in my opinion. The carpet is all gross from over flowing toilets. Very stained .More than once you can the toilets over flowed. Unntrained staff in shorts and scrub shirts, shorts, some even wore legging Heavy girls even. This is highly horrible looking not to mention unprofessional Not enough staff to cover the different halls. You could tell personal was lazy 2 were sitting in the living room area in ugly uncomfortable chairs, while poor residents walked around in dirty clothes unshaven and obvious no showers. Meal time was very unorganized and workers running around or on cell phones. Dirty carpet had not been vacuumed in awhile, or so it looked. This is mostly the front halls. The back for dementia and Alzheimer's did only have one worker for what seemed like alot of people. She was running around alone trying to do everything. Floors were clean and mopped. But it smelled strong like urine and bowel movements. The roomd were much less cluttered and dirty, Probably because they dont have or remember moments Larger shower area than up front. I felt bad for the one girl running around trying to get things done while trying to talk to residents with no memory arguing back with her. Dining room too small for all the wheel chairs and walkers. Prices were lower than most places, but It's old looking inside. Very nice on the outside though. Lady behind desk seemed like she had a fake smile showing us around. Price is low because of all the problems with buildings and untrained staff I gather. I was just to nervous about putting my mother there.

I visited Chunns Cove Assisted Living and I wasn't impressed with that at all. My dad liked it because of the price and they had him in a wheelchair and I took him on a little tour. As you come in, the lobby looked nice, the offices looked nice and the staff seemed friendly. I saw a stain over a bed over a roof leak. I didn't know if that's an active roof leak or an old roof leak. It just looked tired, worn out, not well kept up, poorly maintained, too many people wandering around with dementia. The staff just didn't seem as professional and clean cut. They had a cafeteria and it grossed me out. They were serving chicken livers and something gross. They had a worn out TV room that looked like the furniture was from good will or something. They had what they call the sun room but it wasn't well heated so it would be only seasonal and they had a little outdoor paved part of a parking area with a metal shed roof where people could go out and smoke. I think it was more housing for dementia patients than rehab.
