I went to see the assisted living and memory care of Courtyard at Mt. Tabor. It's a beautiful and much larger facility. The place is very clean and well maintained. The staff is fabulous. They're wonderful staff. The environment is very homey and comfortable. However, it's a little farther away from our support group, and also it seems a little bit too large for us (and for my friend primarily). Those are the main things we did not like.

The Courtyard at Mt. Tabor was a clean and very attractive place. The rooms were decent. They were a little small but it makes up for what they have as far as the community. The staff was helpful and courteous too. They have a pool, a movie theater, a beauty salon, and a cafeteria that was restaurant-style with tables and chairs. It's a very well maintained and very high-quality place.

I went to Courtyard at Mt. Tabor and it's a nice place. The only thing I didn’t like about this place is their outdoor area is not very big. Their walking paths are very small. The rooms are pretty decent and their dining room is very nice. The staff is nice.

The waiting room at the Courtyard was comfortable. I am more interested in independent living though, and it didn’t suit my needs. The dining area was very attractive. The grounds were neat, and everything was clean and attractive.

I like the location of Courtyard at Mt. Tabor. The staff is great. I think they are very attentive. They have a good variety on their menu. It is very clean, and there is no smell. My mother loves the community.

We liked the quality of the assisted living unit of the Courtyard at Mt. Tabor. The staff was very knowledgeable and very positive. I was invited for a meal, but I did not stay. I saw the menu, and they had a lot of choices. They can eat whenever they want. It was more like a restaurant than a dining hall. They had a really good variety of activities like concerts and shopping trips. The grounds were quite lovely. It was next to Mt.Tabor Park which was really beautiful, but the grounds themselves are really well taken care of, particularly from the back of the building. It was very nice.

We did visit Courtyard at Mt. Tabor, but they didn't have a vacancy. The gentleman that toured with us was very accommodating. He knew we weren't going to be a good fit, but he still spent quite a bit of time helping us through this process. The facility is too big for my mother-in-law. She needs something a little quieter. So for our purposes, it was not a good fit. I can probably recommend it.

Courtyard at Mt. Tabor was clean and very homey. It was pretty modern and probably large; it depends on what you're comparing it against. The staff was very friendly, and I was treated very well; my problem is that I just don’t have any money. I would go there if I could afford it.

Courtyard is a very nice place. They have shopping trips; they take residents to medical appointments; and they have occasional trips to the coast or wine country or to different places that are interesting. They have movies, theatre, and music. They are reasonable, caring, and conscious of the necessity for referrals and for security and all those issues that affect seniors who live there. The place is very friendly and very expensive.

My mother is at The Courtyard at Mt. Tabor. The services are fine and adequate. The room is great. The food seems great. They have activities like different exercise classes, bingo, they have a lot of games stuff like bunco, yatzy and skip bo. There is something going on every day. They had sing-a-longs, but I wish they have crafts which they don't have at all. In my opinion, I think the staff can use more training. They tell me they are not understaffed, so I don't think they are understaffed, but my biggest issue is that there seems to be a lack of common sense. It just doesn't seem that anybody has any common sense, which is frustrating for me.

I visited Courtyard at Mt. Tabor and I liked it very much. I was very impressed with it. It was near my daughter. The lady who was there was very helpful and informative. I had a very nice tour. If I wanted to, I could have gone back and spend the night there, talked to people, and had meals, but I didn't pursue that because I thought it wouldn't be nice to do that if I wasn't going further with it. It looked like a very busy place with lots of activities. They had everything. They had a library. They had book groups. People played games. They had transportation to go outings. However, it was too big for me and probably out of my budget.

I visited some communities, and one of them was Courtyard at Mt. Tabor. The staff was great. They were very informative, and they kept in touch with us. I talked to the director and the social workers there, and they were very friendly and nice. We had lunch there and the food was excellent. They have different apartment sizes. They had a studio, one bedroom, and they were of a large size. They did have a list of activities, and we also talked to some of the residents. Actually, the whole facility was very nice. I can't say one bad thing about them actually.

Courtyard was cheery, clean and attractive. They had friendly staff. They took them out to shop once a week. I don't know if they go on fieldtrips because the people that I visited there was too far gone to go on trips but they just seemed to be pleased that they were there. They seemed to be having good care.

Courtyard was a very nice place and the people who showed me around were very nice. The independent living apartments are extremely small and even the one bedroom apartment with a balcony.

The atmosphere is quite tranquil and is teaming with a staff of very caring indidividuals. Music and dining seem to help comfort the residents and seldom is there an uncomfortable vibe to be felt when visiting a relative. My grandmother was there for a 2-year duration before her passing and I have no regrets about having her treated at this facility. It was a heartwarming experience to see so many people care for the elderly with such merit, tenacity and overall maturity. This place is recommended if living in Portland, OR and need a fine shelter for a loved one. The cost is a slight bit extravagant, but it is well worth it because of the good nature promoted throughout the facility.
Independent Living Reviews for Courtyard at Mt. Tabor
September 12, 2021
I visited this facility
I went to see the Courtyard at Mt. Tabor's independent living. They also have assisted living and memory care. I was really impressed with the tour. The food looked like it was more upscale than in other places I've visited. I was not able to taste it yet, but I've looked at the menu. They also give you the option of being able to go and stay there as a guest, which I'm planning on doing probably during the winter.
The facility is in good shape. It was very attractive with lots of trees. I was also really impressed with the staff, their check-in system, and stuff like that. We sat in the dining room with the general manager and talked quite extensively before we went on the tour. I saw their activity schedule, and they have plenty of stuff to do.

Mom actually lives in the independent living at the Courtyard at Mt. Tabor. She has been there a couple of years now. She is in a very nice room. They have housecleaning. Other than that, we take care of our laundry and stuff. They do offer a lot more things than what my mom is receiving. There are tons of them activities. Right now, my mom is not capable of going anywhere; she has not been involved in activities.

The staff at Courtyard at Mt. Tabor were congenial and nice people. The facility is nice, clean, and has a warm décor. My mother said that the food is just average. She likes the daily activities for the older folks like the group exercise class. During the spring when it's a nice weather they would have a lot of music. I checked out a lot of places, and I think compared to other places the cost is good. I would rate them higher if the food is better.

Courtyard at Mt. Tabor is well kept and the staff has been there a long time. They were very good. If we need to go to one, this is the one we would pick. The rooms were spacious, the kitchens were being upgraded, and they had quite a few double rooms and double bathrooms. It was well laid out. We saw some of the pool tables. Each floor had libraries and they had internal, locked, individual mailboxes.

I am/was a resident of this facility
I am a resident of Courtyard, and it's good. They do a lot of trips to places to see things like the ballet, symphonies, musicians, and plays. Sometimes they go to the movies. We have sing-alongs here and they bring in musicians for those. They have a very good safety system. The staff is very nice, but they regularly move on to someplace else. They have really good food and interesting recipes, but they have service problems. You can sit there for two hours without getting a simple dinner. That is their bigger problem.

I looked at Courtyard at Mt. Tabor, but they did not allow pets. They had very nice facilities, but the room seemed small to me. They had different buildings, and you would have to travel to another building to have your meals.

I have toured Courtyard at Mt. Tabor. It was very nice, very big, and looked clean, and wa sin a nice location. The people who took us for the tour were informative and friendly. The people who lived seemed happy. We did not try the food; we just looked at the dining room, and it looked fine. It had graduated care, so you could start out with independent living, then move to assisted living without really changing residences or without moving to another facility. It was very well maintained and very nice.

The food at Courtyard was OK, but I think they could have offered more healthy choices. I was able to go to the gym there with the older ladies and do a little workout on my own, which was nice. I got to see a beautiful film in their nicely laid-out theater with velvety cushioned seats, which was also used as a church. It was a very nice place. The staff was very nice, and I had a nice conversation with them. I saw one apartment there, and it was awesome. It had a patio leading to the back. They're not big, but they had enough room one would need. I loved their theater because it was like a real theater, and you felt like you were really at the movies; that was really fun. I liked the gym; it was very nice.

This is just an average facility. It had independent living, assisted living, and memory care. The staff seemed competent. It's a courtyard, and it's on a busy street in a residential area with a park close by. Their food was typical just like many of the others, nothing special. To me, Courtyard at Mt. Tabor just seemed like a middle of the road independent living facility. Their ambience was adequate, nothing special. The dining area was fine. It seemed to be a well-run typical courtyard facility.
Memory Care Reviews for Courtyard at Mt. Tabor

I visited this facility
Courtyard at Mt. Tabor was probably my favorite out of the ones I toured. It's so close to where I live and it was a very nice facility. It just seemed like they were hitting on all cylinders. The place was spotless and just very nice all the way around and it's not as big as some of the places. Some of the other ones were huge. They were really good. Everything I saw there was what I wanted to see. The staff during the tour was excellent. I was most impressed with that facility.

Courtyard at Mt. Tabor accommodated my mother's memory care needs. We are all good. The staff is wonderful. The services are great. The food is above average, and the dining area is average. Her room is wonderful and clean. She brought all her own furnishings. She enjoys their social hour. There are tons of activities, but she has Alzheimer's, so she does not like to join things.
