Treemont Dallas was excellent and I was quite pleasantly surprised. I would like to stay there myself. Their rules are very general in terms of making sure that the place is safe, but basically it is not a place that has too many rules. It is not restrictive, which I was very happy with, and there's a certain amount of freedom. They do look in on their clients to make sure that they're well and their services are great. The rooms were very nice. The 1-bedroom apartment had plenty of square feet, a nice layout, and you can walk out onto the patio, which was excellent. The entire environment was very good. I was given a nice tour by the staff. Everyone was chatting and having a good time. It was very nice and a lot better than I thought it would be. There's someone there if you have a problem or need, and almost everything was included. I was very pleased with how well-kept the grounds and interior were, and the meals looked great and smelled good. The staff was very nice and answered my questions. I liked the fact that there are several rooms where you can exercise, read, or watch TV.

I have a friend at Treemont Dallas, and she invited me over to their dance. Everybody was very polite. We had tea and some coffee and cookies. Somebody played some records for a few hours and everybody enjoyed themselves. They were only about $2,000 a month, but I didn't get to see the apartments. I stopped to visit the people in the building. The age group of people was about 75 to 80. I had a very comfortable feeling there. Everybody was nicely dressed for the occasion. Everybody was accommodating each other and knew each other. That would be a good choice for me. It's very clean and up-to-date, and they're all very pleasant.

My brother is at Treemont Dallas in a one-person efficiency room. They have everything there. There is an associated nursing home with it but not owned by the same people right across from it. The staff members are all very nice, but sometimes they're a little incompetent. The food seems fine to me. I think it is a very nice place. I picked it because it is close to my home and my sister. My brother is very comfortable there. The activities are good.

Treemont Dallas was OK and looked clean. The rooms and apartments were average. The staff was friendly and attentive. The residents looked happy.

We're signed up, and we will be moving to Treemont Dallas. The room that I selected was on the third floor -- which meant nobody was over me -- and it was a 2-bedroom flat with a main living area; I just decided it's what I want. Everybody there was very friendly and helpful, and I think they will be very astute and good. The rooms could have been bigger though.

The Treemont is the best bargain in assisted living. It is a pretty place, seems to be well-kept, and has very nice, good-sized rooms. The prices are very reasonable and haven’t been raised in years. However, they didn’t offer the level of care needed by my mother-in-law. They have games, exercise classes, entertainment, and little get-togethers. They have church on Sunday, Bible study, and many kinds of games. The food was fine. However, I didn’t like the rehab and special nursing and won’t recommend it to anyone.

My uncle is in Treemont. All of the amenities are A-plus. He has a spacious and nice one-bedroom apartment. They have external things like grocery stores and food trips and offer a dog park if you have a small pet. They have a happy hour every Friday night and on-site physical fitness.

The staff is wonderful and the residents are very friendly at the Treemont Retirement. The food is very good. We do have exercise classes and one class I really enjoy is called think tank were we talk about current events and recall our memories.

I am currently living Treemont Retirement. One reason why I choose this place was the cost. They have different activities, like yoga. They have an exercise room that is very nice. I like that I can prepare my own meals in my apartment, and they also offer three meals a day. The people were friendly, and the place is run well.

I like Treemont because it has everything that I needed. The staff seems very good. So far I'm very happy with it. Right now, it seems really good. The room is fine. The price is really good too. They would cook for you, and food seems to be OK. However, the only thing I am not impressed with is the food selection. They seemed to rave about the food like it was 5-star, but I could not see it. I've been to a 5-star restaurant, and these were not in that caliber.

Treemont is a nice place, but it’s more for independent-living. There is more of a professional level clientele. It’s an older building; their food is good. There were a lot of choices for activities; they had bingo, movie nights, some hobby time, and get-togethers. I would recommend it for independent-living certainly.

We chose Treemont for my dad because we were really pleased with it and to me, when you walked in it was almost like it gave you a homey feeling versus some of the others that we have visited. Also, to be honest, it was also a financial thing. Their staff is wonderful and everyone we've met has been very, very friendly, and they are very helpful. We've had different occasions where I was trying to get my dad set up so he can go and see his wife at Christmas time, and they are just great. They are very helpful with little things -- like I had them coming to do his carpet in his room and they come and clean his place once a week and they are all very, very helpful. He's got his own one-bedroom apartment type thing, but there is no kitchen. It has a little living area, a bedroom, a nice walk-in closet, and a nice little place for him to put his actual dresser. The kitchen is just a sink, a refrigerator, and a microwave, which is just perfect for him. They feed him three meals a day; he goes down there and eat which has been wonderful. He has been very pleased with the food. They have weekly trips to Walmart and the grocery stores, and they also have a weekly trip where they kind of decide where everybody wants to go, and they'll take them to do something like museums or stuff like that. They've got a lot of church things, they have what they call a little happy hour two nights a week where they just all get together in snacks, and they have somebody there that normally just plays music for them and they can dance. They just have all kinds of activities, all kinds of arts and crafts, but they also got a library with the computers and stuff like that. There are lots of trees around, they have areas where they can go outside and sit, little garden areas, and they have little gazebos.

I think Treemont was really the best facility in town, it is an older facility but it’s well-maintained. They’re extraordinarily flexible and they have a very caring staff. I like the location as it easy for me and my brother to be there. I think the food was fine, and it’s a good balance between industrial food and good food. The food in any kind of facility like that was never going to be fabulous, and that we compromised on that by keeping foods in her apartment and then I took her out to eat every week.

Treemont Retirement Community had skilled nursing, assisted living and independent living. It was right around the corner where I lived. My previous experiences were wonderful with the independent living area. It was apartment style accommodation but they took their meals in the dining room. There were a lot of entertainment, activities and outings.

Treemont has both independent and assisted living. They also have like a hospital wing as well. Their independent living was set up a little bit more like a hotel. It was independent living but it wasn't set up like apartment complex. It was more like a hotel: all the rooms were sort of down the hall from each other. They were a lot of different floors so that it was a little confusing to find your way around. The rooms were very nice but they were smaller. Overall, it didn't give an independent living feeling for my mother. It felt more like an assisted living facility. Also their kitchenette area was very different. They didn't have a stove. So they didn't offer the same amenities as the other location. We did try the food and it was good. Also the dining area was a clean, neat, and nice orderly place. The staff was excellent. They were incredibly nice and very kind. They spent a lot of time with us and answered all our questions. They were wonderful. I would definitely recommend this place to others.

Treemont has been around for a long time and it is extremely well run. It doesn't have a huge hall, but it is still a very fine facility. It is in a nice neighborhood and I also know a number of people that move there. Their rooms are nice. The food is really good. They do have bingo, arts and painting, arts and crafts, etc. They also take trips to various places in the city so people are able to go to certain concerts and things like that. They will even arrange to take you to the doctors.

I have a friend who has lived at Treemont for 8 years. It's the happiest senior living residence I've ever seen! It's an independent living place, but there are some accommodations made for special needs. The food is delicious (I especially like that there are 2 choices at lunch and supper, and an "all-the-time" menu if you don't like the entree offerings), their Friday happy hours are a hoot, and it's spotless!. I'm moving to Treemont next year when I turn 68. This is one of the oldest communities in the city, and they've got great living down to a science.

My mother is at Treemont Nursing. She's diabetic and has severe dementia. As her disease progresses, she's lost interest in eating and she doesn't really know how to eat anymore or how to feed herself, so it requires a lot of coaxing and feeding her directly. And because of the diabetes, obviously, there are a lot of blood sugar issues when she doesn't eat. Then the next thing you know her blood sugar is 20.
They've had some challenges in giving her insulin and maybe not remembering that she needs assistance eating dinner. I think depending on who's on staff, they sort of forget. Of course, they have other things to do as well besides personally feeding my mother. But unfortunately, that is the level of care that she needs.

I had a friend at Treemont Retirement Community. She liked it there and she was happy. Her room had two bedrooms but it was small. There was a garden in the facility. The food was delicious.

My father has been at Treemont for over six months. The facility is very nice. The staff and the residents were nice. They have a lot of activities planned that the residents can choose. My dad is in a one-bedroom apartment with living, bathroom, and a kitchen room; more size than he needs. I like the location of the facility and the value.

My dad stayed in the independent living facility in Treemont. He lived by himself when my mom was in their nursing home for a couple of months. It was an older facility. It was also small. Their apartments were very small and very antiquated too. However, my dad liked this facility. He made many friends there. He would go and meet with other people and eat with them. They have a once-a-week happy hour, but I would have to say that they did not have as many events as the other facility. Nevertheless, their community areas were very nice. Actually, everybody there was nice. The staff was also wonderful.

Treemont is a place for older people, sixty-five years old and above. My mother had a fracture in the back so she had to be there. They have a doctor on-call, worked with her in physical therapy and they have an exercise program after she finished her rehab. She's now ready to move out after two and a half months.
I'm very impressed that once a week you can get your hair done and they have a lot of entertainment for the patients if they chose to go to them. The rest of the patients are wheelchair bound but they still have opportunities to do things. The staff was kind and loving to her. I'm really impressed with the care they take for their patients.

Treemont was my first choice because I used to live in the neighborhood and I've known Treemont since it was built. I really was interested in that. We really like the place. The food was delicious and we enjoyed the whole experience. However, we realized we would have to go somewhere else for assisted care. We wanted a facility where it would go straight to nursing homes. Sadly, Treemont didn't have assisted care.

Treemont is excellent. My mom is having a great time there. She has a 1 bedroom apartment with a refrigerator, a microwave oven and a cupboard. She gets 3 very good meals a day included in her rent. They have parties, a cinema room, a beauty salon and a beautiful library with computers. They encourage you to bring your pets. They have a dog park. I would absolutely recommend this facility.

I could only afford the $1,000 efficiency and it was very tiny - just a room with a refrigerator and a microwave (but no where to put it) so I stayed out of the room as much as possible. I made a LOT of friends there and that's their redeeming quality - nice people. Lots of activities and a choice in food.
