I visited Newforest Estates. I wasnt exactly impressed. It was one of the smaller facilities for the price. It was kind of dark, at the back of the property, and not impressive. The room looked like a hospital room with a kitchenette. The activities were OK, and it looked like they keep their residents busy. The person who gave me the tour was late, the staff didnt even know I was coming, and I had to wait 20 minutes for them. The person I met was really nice, she was helping a resident with her medications, and the resident I talked to was really nice. The person that gave me the tour wasnt helpful, and they didnt really know the floor plan that well. I wouldnt rate them very highly, but the medical staff I would give a four. The facility didnt look like somewhere I would want to put my aunt.

NewForest Estates's staff was friendly, and the apartments were nice and clean. The monthly cost was affordable and reasonable, and the grounds were nice. The menu looked good; you could eat what they're planning for dinner or you could have a short order.

Property is well kept and staff is responsive to residents, consistently treating them with respect and dignity. Reasonably priced. Highly recommend NewForest!

My mom is currently a resident at Newforest Estates. This is an independent and assisted living facility, and she just happens to be residing in the assisted living right now. She likes it, but she was looking for something that had bigger rooms and a cheaper price, and we didn’t find it. The staff are awesome. They treat everybody just like their family. In fact they call my mom, “Mom.” She didn’t like the food at first, but they’ve changed the cook, and now she doesn’t say anything about their food anymore. She doesn’t have any complaints. She just says that everybody is wonderful there. It’s in a medical center and close to everything, so it’s very handy for doctors and shopping and everything. It’s a great location.
Provider Response
Hi Cindy~ We are so happy to hear that your mom is happy. We have a unique community and really love what we do. We are working hard on the menu options and so glad to hear this feedback. Thank you again.

I have lived at Newforest Estates in Assisted Living for almost 1 year now. I love that it is a small intimate home with Great staff. We have our days filled with optional activities. Our staff has been here longer than me. I never realized how difficult life had become. My decision to move was one of the best decisions I made in 2015.

Recently I was asked to assist in finding a senior residence for a family member. New Forest was a great option for them. We were looking for a place which was active and engaging and met the budget of someone on a fixed income. The apartments are generous and well maintained. There is a calendar of activities and outings to keep the residents busy. Dining is restaurant style, providing options at each meal. We have found the staff attentive to his needs and responsive to family concerns. Moving and downsizing is never easy, but the leadership at New Forest has helped make it comfortable.

My mom was at Newforest Estates. It had independent living and assisted living on the other side. It was really nice, and people there were very sweet, but I feel they're understaffed. They need to improve on taking action when you have an issue. Newforest Estates used to take awhile to get it done. When my mother fell and broke her hip, her bracelet had not been working for a couple of weeks. She had to drag herself across the room to the phone and then across them again to unlock her door. The food was a good portion but a variety would be a little bit better, but they were good food and of good amount.

We choose Newforest Estates for my mom because she likes it. The staff seems to be great. My mom likes the room, and she's really happy to be there. They have all sorts of activities, and my mom is always into something. The staff is always there to help out. The food seems to be great, and the dining room is very clean.

I visited Newforest Estates. I thought they were very friendly. It was a very nice facility, and they kind of met my mom's needs. The rooms were spacious. We liked it. They had their own bathroom and kitchen. The grounds were very nice and open. They had lots of activities. They could go on and play games. They had bingo, exercise, and different things that you could do. It was in a nice neighborhood and was accessible to a hospital.

My father was a resident at New Forest Assisted living for almost 3 years due to Dementia/Alzheimer's. Throughout his very long stay the staff was professional, helpful, and truly cared for his well being. He had the same care givers for the entire time he was there and they knew him and took care of the many problems that he had. But most importantly, I trusted their judgment on what he needed. Especially at the end when they worked with hospice to ease his passing. Choosing a facility for a loved one is hard. The quality and location of the facility is important but even more important is the quality of the care given and the care given by the New Forest staff was excellent.
Provider Response
Our condolences on the passing of your father, we are glad that we were able to be here for you and your family. We understand what an important decision this is and we are honored that you chose us. Thank you for sharing your experience, we appreciate it and all your kind words.

My mother was at NewForest Estates and it was a very nice place. They had separate apartments and they also served food. I was not able to try the food but my mom said it was good. They had a lot of activities both spontaneous and scheduled. She was completely satisfied there although it was far from the area that she wanted. I also liked everything about it.

I like the fact that Newforest Estates offers both assisted living and independent living in separate facilities that are right next to each other. Not very many do this and it is a bit of a task to pull off. This facility was recommended to me by friends who had family there at one time. When I made my visit they were in the middle of a needed remodeling. I do have to say that the management staff were very at ease and easy to work with giving the tour felt like it was home. The facility is older but cared for. When I viewed a shared apartment it was very spacious but did seem in need of cleaning and new updates such as carpet etc. I spoke with members who were living there and they seemed quite happy and relaxed. Out of all the facilities that I had toured this one had more of an atmosphere as like to my grandmothers house, comfortable, reasonable on a daily basis not restricted or clubbish. For what it lacked in shiny newness it more than made up for in friendly and comforting appeal. They are also one of the few who will permit modifications of your living space if approved in a much easier fashion than others which is a big plus.

My Grandmother was fairly happy there. The grounds were clean the staff were not overly present but they were fairly curteous. My Grandmother's needs were attended to and she had a variety of activities to choose from. There were outings to the store and to church which she particularly enjoyed and she was able to make friends with some of the other residents. If there was a downside it was that the facility frequently changed owners. So there was often changes that she would have to get used to or that she did not like. There was another negative in that once an ambulance had to be called for her but the staff did not take note of which hospital she was in. I thought it was very unprofessional of them to not have an answer in such a serious situation. The other thing was that the "lifeline" necklace that they provided (so that my Grandmother could alert staff in case of an emergency) was broken for months - they never fixed it. A culmination of these little and not so little issues caused my Grandmother to leave the facility.

My brother and I visited the facility on July 14th and we were real impressed with it and their friendlyness. I have a 88 year old mother that has alzheimer's and has had it for about a year.

The New Forest Estates assisted living facility was one of the places we saw while looking in San Antonio for my brother's friend. From the time we arrived, we really liked the overall vibe of the property, staff and residents.
The grounds and exterior was designed like a motel or resort, with nicely appointed and beautifully landscaped greenery. The lobby was clean and fresh with very nice staff to greet us.
The fitness center had well maintained equipment including a heated pool which provided a relaxing spa feel. They also had daily classes and the residents could safely navigate the lovely grounds with adequate supervision as needed.
Their library was impressive, with many good books and games. The meal menus all had healthy food options for all kinds of diets. The dining room was quite nice, with plenty of space. The food we saw looked and smelled delicious. Healthy snacks are offered all day and into the evening, as well as whenever residents request them.
The residents are taken to many interesting events in and around the region -- to take advantage of the diverse offerings. The many planned activities feature everything from book readings and discussions to the arts, and museum, gallery, film and theater visits.
The living spaces were nice sizes - some exceeding 400 sq. ft. Each unit included kitchenettes, was nicely decorated and had an emergency response system so that the safety of the residents is assured with someone available in case assistance is needed at all times.
This is a full service senior community with exception staff. We felt that the atmosphere was conducive to what one would expect in a high-caliber environment.

If I could give more stars for this place I would. It was awesome! I took my mom to look it over, as she is going to need to get into a place soon, and she was thrilled! I was amazed at the facility. This is like a 4 star hotel for seniors. They have several different floor plans for independent living, which is what she is looking for. A full kitchen in all that I saw as well, which is good because she wants to keep being able to cook.
They also have a heated pool outside as well. I was just flat out impressed with the staff and the residents I spoke with, very happy people. This is a place I would feel good about having my mom at, most definitely.

Ever since I moved to Newforest, the staff members have treated me like a real human being and are there for me when I ask for help. This includes all employees. I would recommend other veterans like me to move here! The dining room service is great and the food is outstanding. Plenty of parking spaces for all, too. I really like it Newforest! Michael moved me here and did his homework with me. I got everything I asked for with my apartment. Lisa has been great and her door is always open for the residents. She makes everyone feel comfortable to talk to. I’m here to stay!!!

NewForest Estates is a top notch retirement and assisted living community with reasonable rates. My sister feels like she is part of a family there and when she moved in she said "now I'm home." They offer everything and more that should be part of this type of environment to include a warm and friendly staff and great meals (research supports these are the top two factors to thriving in a senior community). You can just tell by the way the residents respond to their interactive with the staff and even visitors like myself that they feel at home.

We moved my Mother into Newforest Estates when she could no longer stay alone in her home. We sold her home and this was the only place we visited. My Mom knew this was where she wanted to be. Her apartment was overlooking the pool and it was a straight shot to her car. It took awhile, but soon she thought of it as HOME. She met some very nice friends and she is very happy there.

Mom moved in shortly after my dad died and though it took her a couple of months to really get going, once she did we couldn't keep up with her. Between cards, bingo, "horse racing", the dances, etc. etc. etc. the tables turned and we were the ones calling to ask "Where were you? You haven't called in a week!" Several years later she had to move to the Assisted Living facility and honestly, we could NOT have asked for a more caring staff! Mom passed away last June but her last years were happy and she made so many friends! There were absolutely no regrets or second thoughts about her living at New Forest. She was truly cherished there and who could ask for more than that?

So I recently had the pleasure of working with Denise and Michael to get my mother moved in at Newforest. I knew that this was the place for my mother as soon as I walked through the door. I felt welcomed almost immediately by the front desk person and other residents. The facility was clean, the food was good, and even the staff was friendly when we walked around the community. Denise was very professional and gladly answered all of our endless questions. She was even diligent, but not overly aggressive when checking back with us. I didn't feel pressured at all to come in to tour. We finally brought mom in to tour and Michael was there to help us. While on tour, we encountered a group of residents who were so, so happy to see Michael and it was quite nice seeing how well he is received by these residents. We got mom moved in pretty quickly, which saved us some money in the end. My mom was able to move into a newly renovated apartment and we just love the way it looks! I feel like this is the right place for my mother to be and she'll have the social interaction that is going to benefit her since she likes to be active. Oh, and I like that they have a front desk person available 24/7 so if I ever worry about not being able to get a hold of mom, I know I can call the front desk at any time. Denise also told me the staff does daily checks on all their residents. This brings a lot of comfort to me knowing my mom will be accounted for every day of the week. Please do not miss out on this community if you are looking for your loved one! Trust me, you will get that "home" feeling!!!! I am so glad we found Newforest!!!!

We first met Michael while touring NewForest Estates in October 2016. What jumped out at you when we met Michael was his enthusiasm and energy. He seemed to know every resident on a first name basis. They brightened up when they saw him, always ready to tease and encourage him as much as he encourages them!! He truly loves his job and loves the residents. I'm very pleased to work with Michael. He has helped us most recently in picking a rehab facility for my mother after a fall. I can trust him and his judgement.

Newforest Estates was laid out completely different. When you went outside your door, you are actually outside. So, when you open that door, it’s pretty odd. It wasn’t a controlled climate because it wasn’t inside, all of it. So that was one thing that we didn’t care for. The facilities were OK, and the fellow that we talked to from the staff was great and we liked him a lot. It appeared to be much older, and when you walk out your door, you are not in a controlled climate. It looked pretty full, so I think that they are doing quite well.

My mother has lived at NewForest Estates for about 3 years and it has been a good experience for her overall. Anytime we needed help from the administration, they have been helpful, kind and supportive. My mother lives in the independent life section, she is about to turn 90 soon and I have no doubt that her longevity has to do with the life style she has enjoyed there.

My mother has been at New Forest for 4 years. We narrowed our choices based on cost, cleanliness and safety. It was Mom's choice of New Forest. They have been exceptional in relating to and understanding mom's personality. The amenities are wonderful if one takes full advantage of them. The administrative staff have been exceptional on 3 occasions where extra care was needed spontaneously. Over all the staff has been good in communicating with us (her children/care takers).

Newforest Estates has always been a very friendly, active independent living community. They are now undergoing a complete renovation. The new design is beautiful and reflects the spirit of its residents as well as the very caring staff. Newforest Estates is truly a "family" and I am privileged to provide personal services to a number of residents to assist them in their efforts to enjoy independent living for years to come. Newforest residents are very fortunate to have an outstanding chef on staff. The food is wonderful, activities and special events fill the calendar. This is a happy community!!

Dad has been at Newforest Estates since April. We chose this place for its price and the feedback that we read. The staff are very friendly and they appear to love their jobs. They all seem to truly care about the people that are in the community. He is in a 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with a kitchenette. They do have a lot of activities there, and they have a pool. They also play games every night. They have two church services on Sunday. They have van trips every day to Walmart, restaurants, or special trips. They also have dances or some music once a month. Their food is good.
