It was beautiful but a little bit smaller. The only thing that my mom didn't like about it was it was more remote, but it was very clean and the staff was lovely. It was very nice and centrally located, but it's not within walking distance to some of the things my mom wanted to do. The grounds were gorgeous. I want to live there, honestly.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident
My friend's father lives here. She always has nice things to say about. Especially lately because they have a new chef. Her dad has started raving about the food. It was tough for her when they were getting ready to move him in because he had been in the hospital and then home and then rehab. they really were understanding and helpful through all of that. The staff there were really kind to him and made sure he made friends right away.

I saw it, but I was not crazy about it. It looked like a hotel. It was nice. I understood their philosophy, like the first floor was for people who did not need any help. The second floor was for people who needed a little more assistance, and the third floor was the dementia ward. I did not like it because you were up on the third floor without outdoor space. It was very small with a very small porch that you could barely sit on. However, it was a very beautiful place. They had a dining area on each floor.

It is fantastic. My uncle has been living there for a month or so. They have a nice property, great people working there, and terrific rooms. It’s a small senior living community. The dining area is very nice, and it’s not huge.

I went and it was a high-rise building. It had more of an apartment building kind of feel to it. I think the apartments were OK. Nothing struck me particularly. The staff seemed nice enough and very friendly. I did not like the location that much.

We went and we loved it. Very, very, very nice place, but when the money is gone, you're gone. It's beautiful in there. Nice food. I would live there. It's brand new.

The treatment was excellent. We loved everybody we met. Everything was spectacular. We liked the rooms. We liked the facility. Everything was very clean and modern. It made a very good first impression. There was a very nice movie theater there. There was an outdoor seating area for all the guests and there was a monthly Sunday brunch that is offered, which is a very nice option.

There were no smell and I found it to be a pleasant place. The accommodations were very nice and the rooms are really nice. The options and the activities were good.

My mom lived here. I chose it because of the location and price. It was near my workplace. The staff were accomodating, experienced, knowledgeable and sensitive. My mother was in a companion suite. It had two beds and large windows. The bathroom was shared with another resident. The room was just big enough for the basic furnitures. The food was very health conscious. They provided whatever food the residents enjoyed and liked. My mom had no complaints.

It is very nice place, and the staff is very warm. It’s kind of like living in a nice community hotel. The rooms and apartments are very nice and modern, and it’s a new facility. The dining room looks like a hotel. Father is in memory care, and he loves to walk. Environment is very nice and wonderful community. I would recommend it. Kylie -- who is the person that I dealt with -- is always available to you no matter what.
