The lobby of Heritage Oaks was a little bit dark-feeling when we went in, but the layout was very pleasant. The director of the property who assisted me was wonderful. We were able to witness a sing-along. They had a guest who came in and played several instruments and sang to the residents. They had a café where the residents can do their own cooking if they want to, and it's stocked with tea and coffee so that they can invite friends and share what they baked. They also have a movie screening room, and they were going to a road trip to Washington DC to visit the new history museum there. They were in the process of re-planning the salad bar in the dining hall because it wasn’t easily accessible to the residents.

I have visited Heritage Oaks for a couple of months now, and they did show me a 2 bedroom apartment that was very nice. It was very inexpensive; I was really surprised by that. I have been told by several people that their location is in a neighborhood that’s not really good -- that’s why maybe their prices were so low -- but I don’t care about the neighborhood. The location was OK.

Heritage Oaks was nice, but it just cost a lot; other than that, it had a very nice environment. The staff was very nice. We went to lunch, the food was good, and they offered 3 meals a day. It was about 20 minutes away.

Heritage Oaks is very nice. We were very pleased with the place. The staff was very pleasant, very knowledgeable, and extremely professional. There is an air of caring. The apartments were clean and nice. I thought the facility was very clean and very safe.

I think Heritage Oaks is the best value for the money, much more cost effective than anyplace else. The rooms are large, the grounds are nice and peaceful, and the staff are so friendly and accommodating. No long term leases either. Everything is included, food, transportation, activities and housekeeping. My cat loves it her too!

I had found Heritage Oaks for my mother but she passed away two weeks ago. They were very friendly and caring there, and she seemed to enjoy the food very much. She was wheelchair bound, so there was only so much that she could do, but she did do a bit. The rooms were very clean and, considering that she had a studio, it was fine because it was all she needed. The atmosphere was great.

Heritage Oaks was good. The staff was very friendly and very competent, and I didn't have any problems at all. They had a library, and we were impressed with the dining area. The apartments were OK. They had the usual bingo games and activities like that.

I think Heritage Oaks is good for people older than I am as most of the residents were older. The staff was so friendly, and the residents seemed happy. The dining area was clean and nice. The neighborhood seemed friendly and was close to a hospital. They had an exercise room and a recreation room.

What I liked best at Heritage Oaks was the size of their apartments and that the studio was very nice and reasonably priced. The residents were visible in the lounging area and other areas. The one thing I didn’t like about it was that they only had one manager. Everything was clean and seemed well maintained. The recreational activities were kind of boring because it was sort of the same stuff every day, and it wasn’t a lot of variety.

Bob of Heritage Oaks was great. He was very cordial and informative. The facility was clean and the residents appeared to be well taken care of. The room was nice, attractive, sunny, and bright. For its cost, it seemed very reasonable. The whole place was nice. There was a cosmetology area where both men and women could get their hair done.

We chose Heritage Oaks Retirement because of its price which is under $2,000. They were very helpful to mom. They have three meals a day. Mom can also have her dog there. It is a good place.

My father is at Heritage Oaks. We chose it because it is the right amount of therapist and the right amount of cost. His room is private. It looks like a nice, average nursing home. The staff is great so far. For what they charge, I think it is appropriate.

My mother-in-law is in Heritage Oaks, and that’s what we liked. The care is very good, and the staff is very nice. It’s a very clean and caring place. They have lots for their residents to do, and I just think that for the money, it’s a very good place. Even other places that were more expensive were not as nice.

This place is very calm and peaceful. Residents seem very content. I saw the new enrichment coordinator interact with residents and she's a beautiful young lady, dressed very nicely and chit chatting with residents. I am greeted with smiles and a warm welcome. The rooms are beautiful and spacey.

The lady at Heritage Oaks Retirement Village who talked with me was very, very nice. I did not care as much for this facility. They were planning to remodel the dining room. It was very large, and even now, it is nice. The lady who showed me around was very nice, and they have a lot of activities there.

When I went to go visit this facility I would go visit my grandfather. First me and my family would have to go to the front desk to sign in. We had been there so many times that the assistants knew our names and when they saw us they always greeted us with a smile. They would let us know how he was doing as well. We would usually go and eat dinner with my grandfather as well and the dining room had a special area that we could all sit at and we would share a meal together. The decor was what I would expect to be in an older persons home and it was a little dingy looking but everyone was helpful.
