Kendal-Crosslands Communities

My mother will be moving into Kendal-Crosslands Communities. We just really liked it for a whole number of reasons. The range of services and the interactions we've had with the staff have all been extremely good. It seemed very warm and inviting and my mother was quite taken with their gardens. I like the quality of the staff and the convenience of it because it's very close to me and that was very important. I like the dining environment, and the staff just seemed very attentive. The upkeep seemed excellent. My mother enjoyed the food. One of the dining areas overlooks a patio and it's really beautiful. The gardens there were very nice, so the dining areas were very comfortable and scenic.

We've toured Kendal-Crosslands Communities. I like the environment of nature, it's a beautiful complex. They have cottages and apartments that are modernized and beautiful. The grounds are beautiful, they have a great library and they have a really good health facility. There's much space for activities and they have classes on-site. It's a very diverse population. They have all the levels of care in the same site. The person who showed me around during the tour was friendly and knowledgeable. The rooms are fully stocked with appliances including a washer and dryer.

Kendal-Crosslands Communities offers a continuum of care which is a plus for me when I need more help. It's a Quaker community, and I find the Quaker values a very comfortable environment. It's physically attractive, but they're low-key not into fancy chandeliers. They say it's spooky but outside, the grounds are attractive. The staff has always been pleasant and helpful. I like the way they stay in touch with prospects like me, they don't overdo it or keep bugging me. On the other hand, they check in now and then with a phone message or an email. It's a balanced marketing approach, I just found them to be professional and dignified but friendly and responsive. The facility itself is not brand new, maybe parts of it are, but the facility as a whole has been there for a while. So it's not as spiffy as some of the newer places. Their activities are pretty much typical of those places. They make arrangements so that you can go into the city for concerts, plays, and visits to museums. They also have onsite facilities for sport and fitness, movies, and bridge.

Kendal at Longwood is older, but it doesn't show. They've upgraded it and it looks suitable. What was appealing to us was the size of the cottages, which were 2-bedrooms with a den. They were a nice size, and much bigger than we see in other places. The staff member who showed us around was very knowledgeable and has been in the business for a long time. The food wasn't special, but it was OK. They have lots of different clubs, physical activities, swimming, there's a gym, hiking, photography, and arts.

I went to Kendall at Longwood. It’s a nice community, but the rooms were a little bit small. They have very nice staff that look after you. The dining room is nice and spacious. People were having lunch there when we visited.
