Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive comments from numerous reviewers for its excellent management, welcoming and professional staff, and high-quality care, especially in memory care. Many reviewers have highlighted the facility's cleanliness, the well-maintained and inviting environment, and the variety of activities available to residents, ensuring they feel engaged and part of the community even during challenging times like COVID-19. Residents and their families appreciate the careful balance of independence and support, with outstanding communication and genuine consideration from the staff at different levels. The community's dining options have been praised for their flexibility, quality, and variety, with specific mention of an open dining schedule and the availability of diverse menu options enhancing the living experience.

However, some expressed concerns, including the apartment sizes being somewhat small and wishes for more frequent housekeeping services. A few reviews noted the community's location as being somewhat distant, which was a detracting factor for some families, despite the reasonable pricing compared to other options. The transition to the community was hard for a few residents, especially those struggling with communication due to varying levels of dementia among the residents, leading to challenges in adjusting. Despite these points, the tailored care, the warmth of the staff, and the array of activities and amenities have made it a highly recommended option for families looking for a safe, engaging, and caring environment for their loved ones.
