Residents and their families say:

This community has received positive feedback for its bright facilities, active atmosphere, and a variety of amenities. Reviewers highlighted the community's knowledgeable staff, who were keen on accommodating residents' needs, and the variety of engaging activities available, including bingo, painting, crafts, cards, and musical events. The food received mixed reviews but was generally appreciated for its variety, and the community was praised for its spacious room sizes and the overall aesthetic appeal of the surroundings. Residents and their families felt welcomed and supported, mentioning the helpfulness and professionalism of the staff, as well as the cleanliness and maintenance of the facilities.

However, there were some concerns mentioned by more than one reviewer, which included the community's struggle to fill all positions, leading to varying quality in services such as food. Activities on weekends were perceived as limited by some, pointing to a desire for more engaging options during these days. Additionally, the lack of a substantial outdoor sitting area outside the memory care section was noted as a drawback. Despite these criticisms, many reviewers recommended this community, emphasizing the value and satisfaction they or their loved ones found in living there. Concerns about the community not accepting Medicaid at some point and the need for a more dynamic environment in the assisted living sector were mentioned but were not predominant themes among the feedback.
