The Best Communities in Tulsa, OK

"The people at The Cottage at Woodland Hills were nice. They just weren't a good fit for us, but they might be for somebody else. They did the best they could with what they got. Everybody was very nice and very helpful. Everything looked very clean and kept up very nicely. When we went there, there was a group in a community room where somebody was playing music and somebody was singing. So, they were doing entertainment and it smelled good. I don't know what they made, but I could smell the food."

"My mom is a resident of Asher Point Independent Living of Tulsa. I would like to live with her, but I can't. I don't think I can afford it. I've been there a couple of times, and I just go and eat lunch with her sometimes. It's good. It's a nice place. They're very good to her. I like it. She's only been there a little over a year or so, and the staff members are very nice. At first, I didn't care for the lady in the office. She was kind of snooty and acted like she didn't want to do anything. They had so many complaints about her that they got rid of her and put somebody else in there. The food is good. They have a lot of chairs that people can sit outside, but they were never kept clean. They were dusty and there were cobwebs on them. When it's nice, it's nice and warm to sit out and sit in their rockers. I love them because they're nice and big rockers. But they're taking better care of them now. So now the facilities are good. Regarding activities, they have somebody coming by and taking them to the store when they need to. It's not the Taj Mahal. It's nice and clean, but they need to do something about the meals. They need to put special or something different on the menu once in a while. If my mom needs anything, I go and take her. Once a month, they have a birthday party for whoever's birthday is in that month. They get to go down and eat cake and ice cream and talk to people. They're going to have a Halloween party down there, but my mom doesn't care for Halloween at all. She says it's a pagan holiday, and she doesn't go down there."

"University Village Retirement Community is the one I like the most. The residents and the people who work there are very nice. A fridge, a microwave, and a dishwasher are included in the apartment. You can bring whatever you have there. It's a kitchenette basically, and it's one of the smallest apartments. It's like 400 square feet or something like that. The price is okay because it includes heating and cooling, and basic cable TV. Meals are also included. They also have a little place where you can get a hamburger. It's open a little bit later than where you get your meal. They offer three meals a day. They're very courteous and didn't treat you like an old person. I'm 65, and some of the people there were elderly, but they treated them with the utmost respect. That's what I look for. I don't want to be treated like an old person. They have cottages. It all depends on what you want, but I'm not picky. They have independent living and assisted living in the same building. I get around pretty well, so I don't need assisted living."

"Known Memory Care was very nice. I liked the room that the lady showed us. There was walking space around. It just had a little bit of a hotel lobby feel to it in their living area where the residents could sit. It did not have those homey warm colors, but it was beautiful. The facility looks very clean. I was impressed with the facility itself. It looked very nice and very well-kept. The lady who helped me throughout was very helpful. She called back a couple of times. So, there was a good follow-up. She was very friendly and very informative."

"Mom loved her apartment. It was the perfect size. The meals were very good, so much better than the facility we had been to the year before. When she was in assistant living there were so many activities, it was wonderful! After she moved to memory care she still did some activities but didn't feel like doing as much as before, but they were still offered. "

"I'm at Senior Star at Burgundy Place. I chose this facility because it was nicer and cleaner, and the price was good. Everything about it was good. I'd give them a 10 out of 10. I like the whole thing, the way the whole place is run, and all the activities. The staff is very nice, very caring, very sweet, and very accommodating. You get three meals a day. The food is nutritious, and it's like hospital food. It's 10 stories and it's all brick inside and out. It's got a lot of really nice grounds. It's well-kept. They have a whole month full of activities. They have about six different things a day for the whole month. They have bingo, movies, transportation trips to places, and Wii bowling. They have a library and a gym. The rooms are big and a good size."

"The community felt close-knit. It's smaller and their retention was long with their staff. They provide three meals a day and there's a courtyard. Courtney was amazing. She was able to educate us on the whole process. She was fantastic and she came in even on her day off to get us settled and figured out all the things. We appreciate her."

"My mom has moved into Legend of Tulsa Hills. It's nice. It's very well-kept. It's clean. The staff members are very helpful, very nice, polite and capable. My mom doesn't go outside her room, so they bring her food to her. She's a very picky person, so hers is not the best review in terms of the food. They have a beauty shop, and you can have stuff done in that. But my mother doesn't leave her room, so that doesn't apply to her."

"My mother is at The Stonehaven, so she's settled. It's very clean and neat. They have quite a few people that help them. They seem to be taking good care of my mother. Like any place else, they have a nice, clean room, they have good meals, and they have activities for those who can participate. The staff are friendly and helpful. They can take care of my mother because I don't think I could have done it in my home."

"I liked the cleanliness and the friendliness of it. The residents seemed happy when I went in and they all seemed cared for. It looked very professional and we really liked it. They were all sitting around in the living room part doing an activity and exercising. They had the cafeteria and a TV viewing area. The rooms were clean and nice, but a little small. The staff seemed very nice, helpful, and knowledgeable."

"Prairie House Assisted Living and Memory Care was very nice. It was located right across my mom's church which was an attraction because she knew some people who were there and they also seemed to have the overall picture and healthcare was important to them. It was an extremely nice atmosphere. They did artwork and I was impressed by that. They had a movie theater. The place was much newer and they had thought of everything. It's a little more modern than I would usually go for."

"Nice place! No odors and the staff was very friendly! I observed people engaged in activities and ate lunch there and it was so good! The location is perfect and I plan on using them for skilled nursing services soon. I look forward to the food and the friendly staff! "

"from the tour with Samantha and visiting the facility, to the staff. everyone has been super sweet. the rooms in memory care are very spacious and open. its just a very calm place. the food here is actually amazing and u can actually tell what each item is. we are very pleased with everyone, the place is very clean and it actually smells good"

"I would recommend Bellarose. It was elegant like we couldn't afford for my father-in-law to be there. It was set up so nicely. The dining area is beautiful. I thought it was going to be above and beyond what my father-in-law can afford, and so we were very impressed 100%. The staff who gave the tour was 100% very informative. They have plenty of open areas for bird feeders to gardens. They have indoor physical activities in the gym. They have physical therapists and nurses on hand. They have anything and everything that we were 100% looking for. They have a room to accommodate family to come in and pay a little cost to join their loved ones and eat with them. They have three meals a day, and it's a continual change up on the menu items. For the price, and for everything that they have to offer, I see no point going anywhere else."
