Arbour Square of Harleysville

Arbour Square of Harleysville seemed really nice and kept up pretty well. It seemed like there was a lot to do. The room seemed nice and there's plenty of space. The staff was really nice, helpful, and answered any questions. They had a game room. They had things like doctors that visited onsite, and an onsite beauty salon.

Arbour Square of Harleysville was perfect. There wasn't anything not to like about it. It was clean and they kept things up to repair and in good working order. When you walk in the front door, there are chairs there and a fire feature. It just seemed very welcoming and they have everything that you could ever want to do. They have a movie theater, a thrift shop, and gaming rooms, and it just goes on and on and on. I was very impressed with it, but financially, I don't know if I can afford it. The staff was very helpful. They gave me a lot of information. That was probably the best place that I went to visit.

I liked that the independent living people at Arbour Square of Harleysville seemed to be active. I am a fairly active senior. So, I need to be in a facility that has active seniors with the ability to have a place to work out and all that and be close to all the activities that I'm involved with at the moment. They had a nice facility and the price was reasonable. I liked the fact that it's a rental and you don't have to spend a lot of money to buy in. They had nice grounds that I could walk around and a swimming pool. The woman did an excellent job of showing me around and making suggestions on how to try out the facility.

Arbour Square of Harleysville was very nice and well-decorated. The lady who gave the tour was very friendly and knowledgeable. She introduced us to people we knew who lived there. Mom just didn't like that some of the rooms were too small for her, but she wanted to live there. They had a lot of amenities there and everything that she could want or need.

Arbour Square of Harleysville was open, bright, and clean. We toured a variety of independent living options there. All of the rooms that we saw were bright and spacious. The grounds were well-kept. They have lots of options for activities. They have their own casino, their own pub, and their own movie theater. They have lots of areas for residents to meet and do activities together. They were having a game of Jeopardy when we were there. They have a library, a chapel, a salon, and a computer room. They have their own casino and fitness center. The staff members were very, very helpful. We were there for about an hour or more touring. One of the higher-level individuals was walking around and we got to meet him. We did not sample the food, but the dining hall was spacious and they had multiple options.

Arbour Square of Harleysville was very bright and clean. The rooms seemed fine. It's hard to tell without furniture in them, but they seemed adequate. Everyone was really helpful and friendly. The dining room looks like an upscale restaurant. We got to have a sandwich there and my husband and I enjoyed it. There was a gentleman who was teaching a group of people how to play bridge. They had a movie theater, too. It was kind of in the middle of the afternoon, so there wasn't a whole lot happening, but I enjoyed that tour.

Arbour Square of Harleysville was lovely, very nice, and clean. The people were very kind and informative. But my friend thought it was a little too far away and didn't have enough of the services that she needed. They have meals as an option. They had a social gathering area, a dining hall, an art room, a library, and a room to watch movies in. They had transportation services. They also plan social events where they go outside of the community.

We went to Arbour Square of Harleysville. I thought the apartment was very nice. The only person we met was the lady that took us around, and she was very helpful. We did not have any food or anything else there. However, a lot of our friends don't drive that much. It would be inconvenient and not very likely that they would come and visit us. It was important to us to have our friends come and visit and for our sons to drop in after work. It's not that far away, but it would be inconvenient for them to do that. It was another factor in the reasoning behind why we didn't do that. We thought that it was a little expensive, so that that was one factor, too. As the staff went by, the residents said hello and that kind of thing. It was a very quick tour. The one who toured us was excellent.

I'm going to move into Arbour Square of Harleysville. It's a really nice senior community. They have everything that I would like. You have meals twice a day. They have plenty of activities. The people there are really friendly. It's clean and well kept. It's a nice organization. I met a lot of people when I was going through the building to check it out. I met some residents there and the staff was really nice. They have health facilities like an exercise room, and they have games. The apartment is really nice and a nice size. It has one bedroom, one living room, a bathroom, kitchen, a refrigerator, and a range.

My cousin moved into Arbour Square of Harleysville, and it is a beautiful place. The people are friendly, and the place is well taken care of. The staff is most helpful, and it's appreciated. They have a salon, a podiatrist that comes in every week, an exercise room with staff, and all kinds of wonderful activities for the residents. They have great food, too.

I've moved to Arbour Square of Harleysville and I like it a lot. From what I've seen and experienced since I moved in, the front office staff members are very efficient and very friendly. Every day that I've been here, I've seen someone from the front office knock on my door to see how I'm doing, see how things are. I've eaten one of the meals here, so far, the food's very good. The facilities are great, I'm doing laundry today and the laundry rooms are part of your monthly rent. So it's very nice. They have a fitness center with weight machines and a trainer. They have yoga, taichi stretching, Flexercising, there's singing activities, and art classes. There's quite a different array of things. There's a lot of common space, they have a pub on the facility, they have the 1960s snack bar, and there are several purpose rooms that have lists of classes every day. There's a common space on every floor of the buildings, so there's plenty of common space in the area.

I went to see Arbour Square of Harleysville. It's reasonable, it looks good and they offer a lot. The food is delicious too. It's an independent living and they're upgrading.

Maureen

I went to look at Arbour Square of Harleysville. The price was dynamite. The facility was clean. They had lots of amenities. They had a post office, general store, pub, bank, and movie. The utilities were paid for, free Wi-Fi, and there was no upfront cost. The staff was very nice and very knowledgeable. The people were sitting at tables, talking, and doing things. They had a game room. They do art. They have a billiard room. Everything about the place was beautiful. They were roomy. It's just too far away from where I want to be.

My sister is at Arbour Square of Harleysville and it's an excellent place. It's been a great experience with them. They have wonderful residents and wonderful staff. It's also clean and well-kept.

We looked at Arbour Square of Harleysville. It's on a 22-acre campus, which is really quite nice as there are lots of places to walk. They have a very nice library. They partner with a community college, which is an appealing part, too. It is close to Perkiomen Trail, and again walking. They have a full gym, so there's a good chance for exercise. We were looking at a one-bedroom, one-bath, and it has a full kitchen, so you could do that, or they can get their meals there. They have a fitness center, and they have cable, Wi-Fi, and phone as an additional charge. The staff was very professional.

Arbour Square of Harleysville has been really good. I've gotten involved in a lot of activities and have made some friends here. The rooms are clean and are cleaned every other week. They try to include me in all the activities. I have played cards, a trivia game, and gone to the happy hour on Wednesday nights. They've had several musical acts playing concerts and a few lectures too. The parking lot is fine. The staff is extremely helpful. It's independent living, but people here can also hire people to help them. It's normal in our age. They have dining services and waiters. They let you order breakfast from the café, and you can just get the food you want. The activities could be better though. I have a washer and dryer I could use. The rooms are comfortable and the elevators work. There's a trash room and a laundry room in every unit, so you could get some stuff done. I think the value is good. It's $3,100 (which includes meals and help).

I went to Arbour Square of Harleysville. It was very nice. I like it. It was a great place. Everybody that I met was very nice and helpful, and they answered all my questions. I did see inside one of the apartments and it was very nice. I liked it very much. I'm thinking about maybe possibly moving there, but I'm still looking at other places. The apartment I saw was a one-bedroom, but it was pretty roomy. I like the fact that there was a washer-and-dryer hook-up in there for my washer and dryer. I like it. They gave me lunch, and it was good, it was fine. I looked at the menu, too, for what they typically have at their restaurant, and it looked fine. They have an area which is like a little Main Street, and there are some shops and a little pub there. That was very cute. They have a library, too. It was very clean. Everything looked very clean, nice, and pleasant. The staff was great.

My tour at Arbour Square of Harleysville was fine; it was a very nice facility. I thought it was laid out very well and very welcoming. They gave us a little lunch since we were there at lunchtime. Everybody was very friendly, even the chef came out and said hi. It was bright and cheery. The rooms were very nice, the kitchen was adequate and they gave you enough space to cook, and for the most part, they have nice views. They had activities on one side and it seemed like the apartments are on the other side; I was pretty impressed. It was spotless and the staff that assisted me was very knowledgeable, very willing to please, and made sure you understood; they were very gracious. The food was good though it was just a boxed lunch. If there's something they can improve on, it would be the gardens. I believe it was kind of hard to figure out where they exactly were.

I went to Arbour Square of Harleysville. Everything is very clean, they have nice rooms, the people that attended us were nice, they actually gave a sample of the food. I didn't get to walk around the whole place because of COVID, so I didn't really see all the amenities there except for the dining room.

Anne

We toured Arbour Square of Harleysville. It's a very nice community, and I'm still considering it. The people seemed very nice, and the facilities were nice. I was looking for independent living. They have an indoor swimming pool, they have exercises there, and an exercise room. The sales person was excellent and very helpful.

Robert

Our tour at Arbour Square of Harleysville was good and the community was nice. The staff members who assisted us during the visit were very nice and the apartments we saw were very nice as well. They were pretty big depending on what you wanted. Their dining area was very nice, but when we came it wasn't mealtime so they brought us cookies and other stuff. They could be more affordable, I guess. They have quite a few things for the residents. They have movies, and they have lots of stuff including a mini bar and bingo.

A year after my mom passed, I asked my dad if he would consider moving closer to my brother and me in Pennsylvania and he said “yes”. We looked at number of places and finally found Arbor Square. After a quick call, we figured out that their financial model fit my Dad’s budget. My wife and I visited and found that the staff and residents were so friendly. The apartment is new, bright and clean. There are a ton of onsite amenities that make it easy for my dad to get a haircut, play pool, get new glasses, rides to appointments and events. He is happy with the balance of support and independence.
