My father is here. The administration is very good about handling any type of situation. It is a clean, nice place, and a good fit for Dad. They correct anything that comes up that we bring to their attention. They're one of the best places. They have a lot of good things going on there. They even have a system where the residents decide what outings to do. They have regular activities, and he likes their food. It's very inviting, and there's a lot that you get for your money.

I'm very happy with, it's good. I saw their residents participating in activities. My mother's room is very nice and clean, and she's very happy with it. The staff is prompt and courteous. Anything that has come up usually gets taken care of, and we get a response back relatively quickly. Everything seems fine. It's a good fit for her needs.

It was very nice, very cheerful, and bright, with lots of windows. When you walk in, it's like a plush and very welcoming 5-star hotel. The staff is very good.

I would say it is fresh, airy, clean, large, welcoming, friendly, and very communities-oriented with lot of large rooms for getting together and lots of programs and activities. I think the food and everything was really excellent. It wasn’t cheap, but it wasn’t on the extreme high end of expensive. The price was in line with the average of what we expected.

We did not have a problem with it. It just was farther away where my mom actually lives now and where I’m at. The room was really nice, and the common area was a good place. The people were very pleasant too.

I liked it very much. The food was adequate. I liked the 2-bedroom, and the hallways were nice, wide, and bright. I liked that they had a lot of activities for the clients that were living there. For the short time that I was there, it was very pleasing.

It was very pleasant. I thought it was not a good fit for my parents, though, because it was more assisted living than independent. The pricing was good. The rooms were very pleasant and clean as well. The facility was very small and friendly.

It is smaller than the other ones we visited. There are only 60-some residents in it which was easier to handle. The lady who assisted us was so nice. My brother has been very happy with this facility. It is a clean place with very good food. The price was right.

The people were very nice. They were helpful, and they answered all our questions. The dining area was nice, with a nice layout. I saw one room, and it was nice.

It looked like one of those country inn, suite hotels. They have an open staircase going upstairs. It was absolutely gorgeous, but it wasn’t the right fit. The staff was very friendly, and they had a big activity room.

We like it, and my parents have been there since this summer, but my mother passed away last week. They are wonderful as far as the nursing staff helping to take care of my mother and working with the hospice team. It is very nice. They are doing very well now taking care of my dad, checking in on him and making sure that he is doing OK. My dad is living there by himself now. I don't know how long he will be there because it is very hard for him to live in the apartment that he and my mom shared. However, we are very happy with the place. They have wonderful meals there, and my mother's laundry is done because she is the person considered assisted. People check in on them all hours of the day and night, and if they decide not to go down for a meal, someone always knocks on the door to make sure they are OK and see if they need anything. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about them.

I met with the ladies and we went over everything and toured the facility. We looked at the different rooms. One had one bedroom and one had two bedrooms. We looked at the dining room, and we looked at the activities list that they had going on. They showed us the activities schedule and the things that they had. They hava podiatrist that comes in.
