Residents and their families say:

This community has received positive feedback for its cleanliness, friendly staff, and well-kept facilities. Many reviewers have praised the size and cleanliness of the rooms, and the food has generally been described as good and consistent. The staff's friendliness and their quick responses to any issues were frequently highlighted, along with the variety of activities available to residents, such as bingo, exercise classes, movie nights, and field trips. The community's efforts to make residents feel welcome and cared for, whether through beauty shop services, celebrating birthdays, or the provision of transportation for appointments, have been well received. Families appreciated the secure, homely environment and the professional manner in which the staff conducts themselves, offering a comforting level of care and attention to residents. The accessibility features for those in wheelchairs and the overall layout and decoration of the facility were also positively noted.

However, there were some concerns mentioned. The most significant issues raised by more than one review include the quality and variety of the food, with one reviewer specifically stating it as “horrible” and suggesting a need for improvement. Another point of critique was the level of activities provided, which some found lacking beyond regular bingo games. Staffing levels, particularly for housekeeping and assistance with personal care, were mentioned, and some reviewers felt that the community could do with more staff to better meet residents' needs. A few reviewers also noted an initial rough start with administrative or care issues, and while these were generally resolved, they did impact the initial experience for some residents. Despite these critiques, the community was frequently recommended by reviewers for its care, environment, and the pleasant experience it offers to residents and their families.
