Independent Living Reviews for Lionwood Senior Living

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My uncle moved into Lionwood Senior Living. It seems very homey. They had a lot of activities going on. The people we met were very nice. Everybody's been very helpful. I saw a pool table, and they played cards. They provide three meals a day and even snacks. I like the idea that my uncle could go and get a snack whenever he wanted. It has only been a couple of weeks, but it's been great so far. I saw an exercise room. They have a barbershop and a movie room.

I'm in Lionwood Senior Living which is a very good place, and I love it. It's excellent, the staff is wonderful as well as the clients, and I love it here. The staff is excellent. They treat you like a family member, I have health issues but they treat me with respect. I just think they're awesome and they've been a blessing to me. I eat the food, it's okay, it's edible and it's good. I'm on a special diet, low sodium, and they fix it for me every meal. I don't have to do that when they are on their way to make sure I can stay healthier so it's awesome. They have a lot of things like bingo and Wii bowling, and I would say it's very nice, but I just don't always participate. What I like about it is that you have your room that you can go to, or you can be with people. They're fairly expensive here because they are one of the more recent ones that I could find. They also have a gym.

I had an in-person tour of Lionwood Senior Living. The people, residents, and the people who were in the office were friendly. My father knew a couple of people there, and he had visited some people there before, so he chose and liked it. The director was nice, everybody was nice, and it fit his needs. It didn't smell; it was clean. It was only two floors, up and down. They have a covered area, and there was an area for them to walk. It wasn't a big area, just enough for them to walk. They have a theater room, an activity room, and a crafts room. I liked that they have services every Sunday and have Bible study.

When I visited Lionwood Senior Living, I like that the lady, the director that showed me around was pretty thorough. She showed me all three apartment plans, so that was nice. People were doing activities and stuff like that; we get to see that and the dining room. She was very thorough and nice. A lot of the residents knew her, and she said she had been there for like 20 something years; she had been there a long time. The apartments were nice and clean. I've seen all three sizes; the larger size was very spacious, and the price was very reasonable. It was the lowest I've found, for what it was. It was nice, fresh paint, the carpets were all cleaned, everything was clean. The open and handicap showers, that's what I liked about it. You can do handicap showers and bathrooms, and they could just fit the wheelchair in there; that's what I was looking for. The facility was very clean, and everybody was pretty nice. I think some people eating it's an open restaurant type thing. That was nice because my dad doesn't have to eat at a certain time. He can go down whenever, and I thought that was pretty nice and convenient.

My father-in-law will be moving into Lionwood Senior Living. It felt cozier and personal. Compared to some of the others we saw, it seems like the others were trying so hard to look like a resort hotel with their main areas; it just seems like they're spending too much effort trying to put on a façade. Lionwood just seems a lot more personal, friendly, and cozy, more homelike; not like you're staying at some hotel somewhere. The staff was very knowledgeable. She's been there for twenty-one years, which we like because that tells us that there's a lot of consistency in terms of continuity. You know, it's a place where people stay; it's not high turnover. We had lunch there, the food is very good. My father-in-law's main thing was if the food sucked, he didn't want to go there. So, one thing that we previewed was the food in the area, and they helped set us up with food to take home to him. Then, he also went in there and had a meal; that was part of the reason why we went with them because he was happy with the food. They did have a patio with a separate smoking area; it's pretty easily accessible. The door going out there, there wasn't an automatic door, which would be nice, but they said they're looking into that as we speak. That would be one thing that would have helped; possibly a little more security camera outside would be helpful. Another important thing that was distinguishing about Lynwood over the other places is the availability of food during the daytime. It wasn't like you had to be in the dining room within certain hours like this is when they serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. He's 92 years old, he eats when he wants to eat in the morning, and he wants to be able to eat when he's ready. So that availability was very important.

I went to see Lionwood in Oklahoma City. It's an independent living and it was very nice. The facility and the apartments were very nice. The staff is very helpful. The place just seemed open, friendly, and airy. It was a very nice facility. We saw exercise rooms and dining areas. They gave us a folder of things that had rooms, floor plans, a sample menu, and a listing of their activities. It was a very nice packet. The immediate neighborhood was fine but I did not like the extended neighborhood very well. The location is okay. I thought it was very nice and everybody seemed fine. My sister was not as impressed as I was.

Lionwood Senior Living had a nice cafeteria area. We liked that the apartments were newly remodeled, so they were very nice and clean. The only drawback is that there were no cooktops and they had very small refrigerators. They had a nice, little cinema room where you can watch movies in and they had a separate dining room where families could come and have private dinners with their relatives staying there, or if you want to have a special occasion, like a birthday party, you have your own dining room area for that. We like that. They had a nice library and an office space. The amenities were good there, the food they offered for us to try out, but we didn't try it out. They had an alternative menu than what was being cooked for that day, we like that. They had a nice outdoor sitting area. The staff was friendly, I enjoyed that. I went to that tour on a wrong day and they were nice and able to squeeze us in.

I think that Lionwood Senior Living was well done. The people were very nice, and it seemed to me like the residents knew each other. The ones I saw were seemingly treated well and happy to be there. It was the middle of the road in terms of appearance as you walk in. It was clean. There's a dining room where you come in, and you sign in, and you're seated. And I thought that was a good plan for them. The two people I met and had any conversation with were very, very complete in their explanation of how things work, what they can do, and what they can make payments for as far as upgrading the rooms or repair. They represented the place well and clearly. We went into different floor plans and they were very complete in their explanation of how things work. The layout and facade appear to be very good, but the traffic in Pennsylvania could be a problem if you're still driving. When getting in and out, it's a busy street.

My concern at Lionwood Senior Living is that it's a busy street and it isn't gated, and with my mother's dementia, I don't think that facility would be good. If she got confused, she could walk right out in the street, so that one didn't work out well. The overall experience was great though, and I think if my mother didn't have dementia problems, it would have been a great place for her. The lady that showed us around was really nice. The room was the perfect size for what my mother would have needed. After the visit, it made me realize that she probably needed more of an assisted living instead of just a senior living. Amenities are pretty standard with everything that they provided and offered, so everything was great. They have music, crafts, and a lot of different groups. I think COVID messed up a lot of travel and stuff.

My mother stayed in the Lionwood Senior Living before. We absolutely loved the community and what it had to offer. It was a wonderful experience. It was very clean, it smelled nice, it looked nice, it had fabulous amenities, the food was really good, and we actually dined there. They had a general store, a beauty salon, and lots of great activities that the residents could engage in. They had some great people that came in, interesting activities, and they did field trips and the whole thing. It was wonderful. It was an excellent value for the price.

My parents are at Lionwood Senior Living. They have very friendly staff, and lots of activities for the seniors. It was a little bit out of the way for us, but they liked it there. It would be ideal for a single person, but the rooms are small for two people.

My mother lived at Lionwood for 2 ½ years. During that time she was able to grieve our father’s death and blossom as an individual. She developed loving friendships and became a caring friend to many of the residents. During the last six months of her life, she was in and out of hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. The Lionwood staff was loving and supportive to her throughout that time. I will always be grateful that she loved her home at Lionwood, and that the staff lovingly cared for her before she entered her eternal heavenly home.

I moved to Lionwood in December 2014 and its the best decision I have ever made. The employees and people that live here are remarkable. We have so much fun with all of the activities that are planned and the wonderful food that we get to eat. With the help from a staff member, we were able to start up a choir and design t shirts and now we go to other facilities to sing. If you are looking for a wonderful place to live. Lionwood is it.

I moved to Lionwood on May 31, 2016. I have experienced nothing but heaven on earth! I am most excited about the three meals a day, housekeeping, and all bills being paid. The staff has been exceptionally helpful, compassionate, and caring. On a scale of 1-10, I rate them "10". I have been telling all of my family and friends about Lionwood. If you're looking for a home., look no further! I love the experience that I am having as a resident of Lionwood Senior Living. Less I forget, the activites and social life is extremely fun and exciting.

Lionwood Senior Living is very active; people there have been there for a long time, and they loved it. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and spacious, and they redid everything before my mother-in-law moved in. The food is very good, and she likes it. There are activities every day and a variety of things to do, and they take them out. The people there are very happy, been there for a long period of time, and have no complaints. Everybody seems to be getting along and are friendly.

I went to visit a friend who just moved into Lionwood and much to my surprise I was very impressed. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting it to be so wonderful. Everything was beautiful and my friend is very happy there.

We had a tour at Lionwood Senior Living, and it was nice. It has a good location with rooms that are a little bigger compared to other facilities we've visited. They do provide transportation and also have different activities for the residents.

I like Lionwood Senior Living. It was good, and the staff seemed very personable. They have storage available for the residents, which was nice. The residents were coming and going and interacting with each other, making it seem like a pleasant place to live. They had a nice library, common rooms, and a good dining room. The only drawback is that they didn't have a full kitchen, so they didn't have a stove or oven, just a refrigerator and a microwave.

Lionwood Senior Living had a lot of nice facilities, but the rooms were a little too small for my father. The dining room was very pleasant, and the lady who gave the tour was excellent; she answered every question I have. They had a lot of good things. My father is a veteran, and they help the veterans with all the different things they need, i.e., if they need to go to the veterans hospital and access to other programs that they offer. They had a big room where they do all sorts of activities. They have guests come in and talk and do things. They also have Bible study and a game room. The people there all seemed pretty happy.
