My father was here. He wanted to go there because I was next door so that I could visit him frequently. I liked the living conditions and the fact that he had his own spacious room. They were very caring there. They're great personnel and everything. They're great folks. Of course, my dad would have preferred to be at his own house, but he couldn't because he was in failing health. It was in the same neighborhood as his house, and it's near me. He was pretty pleased about them, and so was I. The residents there seemed to like the food. Dad's favorite meal of the day was breakfast. I was often in his room when he was eating something. The facility itself was very nice. It's like a big house. They have a big dining area inside. Some of the patients were in walkers. They have a lady who is going to walk with them down the street when the weather is nice. They would play games and have certain events, participatory stuff if they wanted to get involved. It's hard to really say what because my dad didn't really participate in them.

The arrangement would be too small for two people, especially with a dog. What they showed us was a two bedroom, and to me, that looked more like a one person bedroom. It would be lovely if you have a fairly sedentary person, and not someone that's super active. The gentleman that took care of us, Randy, was very kind. It's a small facility and they have a pretty walking path in the back that goes all the way around the building. I think they have senior activities, but none of them were happening when I was there. They also have a little patio in the back. It's very sweet. It's a tiny community.

We liked it. We were very impressed. I liked that it's a little smaller community and I liked that it's on one level. The person who gave me the tour was very good. The rooms looked very nice and a little small. I wish they were a little bigger, but they were very nice. We looked at just regular assisted living with help with the meds, the laundry, the housekeeping, and the meals. They seemed to have a nice dining room. We did not see any, but they said they have different activities. They have some music off the back patio sometimes and they have a beautiful garden out back where the residents can sit. They explained to us the food and showed us different things, and they're very accommodating to the residents and their needs and wants.

My father has been happy since 2017 at this facility. The facility has increased their care for him as his needs have grown. This is a relief rather than needing to him to move him to another facility. Importantly to me, the facilities' core staff have become like family for me in navigating the waters of an aging parent. They are an advocate for my father in dealing with his healthcare. This "home away from home" gave me a chance to know my father much better than I could have if he had stayed at his home. Plus, he gets the care he needs and I get the support to focus on loving him rather than worrying about him.
