We were greeted at the reception desk at Pinebrook and the woman we had an appointment with came right out. My mom really likes the place. It's a nice place and they have activities. Everything seems to be very close at hand. The rooms are nice and seem to be pretty much on par with everything else in the area size-wise. My mom will have a nice room, with a nice, big bedroom, a nice-sized bathroom, and a living room slash eating and kitchen area. They have an exercise slash therapy area, a general store, a beauty salon, and a library.

I am in Pinebrook. This place is great. The people are very friendly and very helpful. I am in a studio apartment with plenty of room for me. They are just fantastic here. I cannot say enough about that. Their food tastes good. However, for me, the breakfast is too early in the morning. They have a game room, computers, volleyball, and yoga.

My parents are on Pinebrook's assisted living floor. It is wonderful. The nurses are always checking in on them. When my dad’s condition started to deteriorate, they brought hospice in to check on them a couple times a day. They were there 24/7 during the last couple of days. They have all kinds of activities, field trips, a gym, a craft room, and a hair salon. My parents do not participate in the activities, but I know on Thursdays, they always go someplace, like out to lunch or the theater. They do crafts, like the women do flower pot arranging, knitting, and puzzles. They also have a bowling league for Wii bowling. The food is good. Sometimes they have complaints due to the difficulty of chewing things. My mother has difficulty with her teeth while chewing. My mother has three meals a day, including a hot breakfast. The building has continental breakfast and then, two other hot meals a day. They always have a basic menu you can order from like sandwiches, hamburger, soup of the day, and a couple entrees. They really have some good choices.

We chose Pinebrook Retirement Living, and my mom will be moving in next week. We like it because it’s close to her friends and neighborhood. The place is very, very nice. They have a craft room, happy hour, wine tasting, and a beautiful fitness center where she can do her physical therapy. They have a dining room on her floor, so she does not necessarily need to go down to the main dining room. The staff was very informative and answered every question we had. Overall, it’s very nice.

Pinebrook was one of the newer facilities I visited. The rooms were real nice. They showed me both one bedroom and two bedrooms apartments. They had transportation, they had an exercise room, and a nice, big dining area. The staff was real nice, seemed to be real knowledgeable about what she was doing. The residents seemed to be happy and enjoyed what they have there.

We made two trips to Pinebrook and were very impressed with both the facility and the people we met both times. The facility is relatively new, very tastefully decorated and just a very pleasant place to be. We were able to have lunch on our second visit, and the food was very good. The apartments are quite spacious and I especially appreciated all the safety details in the assisted living units. While we were not able to interact with many of the staff, Aimee was always extremely helpful and willing to answer any question at any time. She is a sweet, caring individual who has truly found her calling. While we were not able to work out any arrangements for moving my father to Pinebrook, I would not hesitate to recommend Pinebrook to anyone who was considering a retirement community for their aging parent.

My husband and I visited this community twice hoping to move my very independent mother to a location closer to the family. One visit was a last minute phone call and the second was a scheduled appointment and what we saw was the same....a super nice staff and a clean and tastefully decorated building. Very warm and welcoming community. The apartments were the largest we had seen. The bathrooms were my favorite. They were very safe and arranged to allow ample space for mobility. The apartment floor plans were really thought out well. Great location. Pinebrook was our choice but the final decsion was moms and she choose a community in a location that she was most familiar.

I chose Pinebrook for my aunt. What I like most about it are the services and location. The efficiency apartment is much larger here than in the other two places I visited, so I knew she'd be able to take more of her personal belongings with her.

We went to Pinebrook Retirement Living, and it was modern and clean. It was also a nice and lively looking place. The rooms looked nice, spacious, and modern looking. The staff was very nice and accommodating.

Pinebrook was fantastic. I’m in my 70s, and I think if I needed to go somewhere that’s where I go. The people that worked there were very accommodating and friendly. I just felt the comfort there.

My mom just moved into Pinebrook Retirement Living about six weeks ago. She is still in therapy, so she isn't able to do so much. She is not all that happy yet though. I just called their activity director to make her get out and do more things and stuff. They have crafting, exercise room, and a lot of amenities. Her room is nice. The service in helping her get situated was also good. The people are very friendly to her when she goes down to eat in the dining room. Their dining room is very nice as well. The facility itself is very pretty. Its lobby is beatiful. They do have a lot of services too. They take her to the doctor if she needs a ride. One thing my mother doesn't like is, they drive so fast. Fortunately, the place is in a convenient location where a lot of shopping areas are around it. The one thing that they should improve on is introductions for new residents. They should mix things for the residents when there are new people. It is a way of introducing the new person to the other residents.

We moved my mother into a retirement community called Pinebrook. We chose this place because it was a little bit better location for her and also they provide three meals a day. My mother enjoys the food. She has been there for two months now and overall she is doing fine. They have all kinds of activities to keep their clients occupied like crafts, music nights and movie nights. They also have group trips to a local shopping center or to the drug store. We like that they have free transportation service. The best thing about this place is that my mother doesn't have to cook, clean or grocery shop.

I first visited Pinebrook when my husband and I just "dropped by" one afternoon. Although we didn't give them any advance notice, the staff members were very friendly and went out of their way to show us the facility. At the time, we were looking at retirement options for my elderly parents, and Pinebrook seemed to offer the best services at a reasonable price. They have been residents there since April, and my main regret is that we didn't relocate them sooner, since there are so many social and learning opportunities they could have taken advantage of. The Pinebrook employees are exceptional in their personal contact with the residents, and I highly recommend that interested parties contact Aimee for a personal tour.

My mother has been at Pinebrook almost a year. I truly believe she would not be with us if it were not for living at Pinebrook. She was no longer able to drive and had become depressed and most of her friend had past or did not drive either. Pinebrook offered her a way to make new friends. There are a variety of activities for the residents to take advantage of. The staff are friendly and always speak to the residents using their name. All the staff, including new ones and know the names of the residents, even the new ones. I can't say enough great things about Pinebrook.

"We feel so lucky to have located this senior retirement home. Everyone goes the extra mile for you here. It is great with all of the safety features for the senior citizens including the handicap showers and they daily making sure you are O.K. There are a lot of activities that you can participate in or not. We visited several other senior retirement and this was the best by far. If anyone is looking for a great place, you have to come and visit us. Bobby and Nettie Jo Brandi Childs

My mother and I visited Pinebrook while she was visiting from Florida. She wanted to visit retirement communities for when she "needed" it in the future. After visiting Pinebrook we went to 6 other facilities. We then went back to Pinebrook for a second look. It was at that time that my mother decided that Pinebrook would be her new home, not in a year or two. Within 2 months she was settled into her new apartment at Pinebrook. She has met so many new friends and the employees treat me as well as her as old friends. Pinebrook's facility is clean, modern, and homey. The staff is so helpful to the residents. She worries about being a burden to me but now she can rely on Pinebrook to transport her to doctors' appointments, shopping, etc. Her apartment is cleaned by professionals and now when I visit, I can just concentrate on spending quality time with my mother.

My mom moved there almost three years ago after living alone in a large home after my father died about seven years ago. While it was very difficult to "talk her into" making the move, she now says that she wishes she had moved there years ago. To say that the Pinebrook staff are incredible is an understatement. It is a smaller community and they make every effort to truly KNOW each resident as an individual. From every angle, my mom seems to have actually "reverse aged" since she has been there. Couldn't offer enough compliments as a very pleased family member.

My mother is at Pinebrook and she couldn't be happier. I never thought I would see my mother live again after my dad died. When my mother made the move into Pinebrook their staff was incredible. They checked on her everyday. They took time to introduce her to new people and helped her make friends. Every time I go and visit my mother everyone that works there says hello and greets me with a smile. They know me as well as my mother and I hear all about how she is doing. I love that Pinebrook is small because I feel like my mother wouldn't of gotten the attention she needed if it was a bigger place. Pinebrook, thank you for giving my mother a reason to get out of bed everyday and keep moving. You all are incredible!
