I visited this facility

The Heritage of Green Hills was so active. It was Halloween and they were having a Halloween party. They were really busy. It's a busy place. But you have to buy into that, and I didn't want to do that. It was nice though. The rooms were very clean and very neat. The size of the room was perfect. They had a buffet for dining, but I don't know if it's always a buffet. They have a huge indoor pool and a beauty salon. They have everything there, and the place is huge.

Provider Response

We appreciate your visit and hope you find the community that best suits your needs.

I toured The Heritage of Green Hills. It was great. The place is nice. It's secluded. It's right near a golf course, but it wasn't in a location that I wanted to be in. They were all pleasant. They all seemed like they would be welcoming you. They were friendly. The facilities were very clean and kept up well. The room sizes were very nice, up to date in their decor, and things were in the hallways and stuff.

We toured The Heritage of Green Hills. The people were very nice. We had a meal there and the food was good. We felt it was a little more expensive and smaller than the other community. The staff was very nice and accommodating.

I was satisfied with The Heritage of Green Hills. Any questions or problems that arose, they addressed them. My dad said the food was good. We ate a couple of times down there and did not have any bad food. He had a one-bedroom apartment there and it was spacious. There's plenty of room. He had a full kitchen and washer and dryer. They had some activities, too. He used to play bean bag throwing and enjoyed that. He also helped out in the training room. So, he managed to stay busy for the most part when he was there.

The Heritage of Green Hills was my favorite. They had a pool, and I thought that was wonderful. The only thing though, was you had to pay an upfront fee of a lot of money, several thousand dollars. They had outdoor areas that were very nice. They have arts and crafts, and swimming, and exercises, and dancing. The facility was wonderful.

My two parents moved into The Heritage just before the pandemic. They are very happy there and we enjoy visiting them. The restaurant staff that they hire are always friendly and attentive. The management treats the residents as part of a team. The other patrons are almost always happy which makes the atmosphere positively upbeat.

We have lived at The Heritage of Green Hills for two years. They took great care of all of us during COVID. The many activities available to us keep us very active. The apartments are roomy and the dining halls serve quality food with excellent servers.

My parents live there and love it. I love visiting and enjoying the activities and having a meal. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. So glad my parents have a place where they can interact with others have fun and enjoy senior life. I highly recommend. They have met so many friends and are always telling stories about their friends and activities. They have a beautiful apartment too.

I visited The Heritage of Green Hills. It is really large, which is not desirable for me. It is clean and modern. The food is very good. I have eaten there several times. Everybody is very friendly there. Even the residents are extremely friendly. Everybody seemed to be happy there. The rooms are a good size, but they aren't quite as spacious as other rooms I've seen. They have activities. They have plenty of social activities and bus trips.

Green Hills Manor at Heritage is a wonderful, caring place. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for personal care.

I have been living here at The Heritage of Green Hills for over a year now. I'm very pleased with what I have. It is a very friendly and very community-oriented type of organization. We have resident council and resident committee. We have many activities to participate in. We have an excellent dining place like a full restaurant where we order from a menu. We have a tavern for socialization, and for eating as well, both for dinner and for lunch. I can't speak more highly about the staff members. They're very much part of our community. People are helping one another. It is very community-oriented yet it respects your privacy. You can do whatever you want, and you come and go as you please. The management staff is very accommodating. If you have any special needs, e.g., ride for the doctor or if something doesn't go the way you expected it to, they help you out. Everybody here very friendly. If you can't be totally independent, you can have a personal care person come in and care for your personal needs. You can have assisted living as well. If you reach a point with dementia, we have a dementia unit. If you need specials from hospitalization, you can also go there temporarily and come back to your apartment. The community is not huge, so you don't get caught in a major bureaucracy. We don't have that, which is wonderful. You can have your hair and/or your nails done. There are doctors onsite once a week. They have a game room, a gym, a big olympic-size pool, an arts room, and an exercise room. Many of the residents here are members of the Lions Club. They invite outside folks in here for events.

We've lived at the Heritage for 2-1/2 years. We have a 2 bedroom with den on the top floor with a wonderful view. The staff and residents are extremely friendly. I am on several committees and several activities (water volley ball, brain/body building/movies, woodshop, and exercise. The food is outstanding and we have an indoor pool, exercise room, art studio, gym, and other outdoor activities. If you are walking down the hall and someone doesn't say hello, they don't live here. Very happy we moved here.

Not enough time in a day. Recently we invited thirty for a day time activity. The event was a week away. Eighty percent of the people had conflicts and could not come. The other activities ranged from outside the building volunteering to card or board games that were plannedperiod

The Heritage of Green Hills was everything we were looking for. The staff was very nice. The rooms and apartments were nice. We looked at a 1-bedroom with a den, and it would have been sufficient for us. The whole place was really nice.

The Heritage of Green Hills is a warm and friendly place with both apartments and villas. It is small enough so everyone gets to know each other but large enough to provide multiple activities to get physically and mentally fit. It's resort living in a caring community.
