Residents and their families say:

This community has received a mix of high praise for its positive atmosphere, dedicated staff, spacious rooms, range of activities, and overall care provided to residents. Many reviews highlighted the exceptional staff and their attentiveness to residents' needs, with specific commendation for individuals like Angela for her outstanding customer care, kindness, and assistance during tours and transitions into the community. The varied activities, including crafts, games, and excursions, along with amenities such as a large swimming pool, on-site dining offering delicious meals, and accommodations for independent and assisted living, contribute to a vibrant and supportive environment. The presence of a knowledgeable executive director and the inclusion of extra services like on-site doctors' offices were also positively noted.

However, not all aspects were viewed favorily. Some reviewers mentioned maintenance and staffing issues, including unaddressed repairs and insufficient staff training. Complaints about the food's quality and variety were raised by several residents, alongside concerns about long walks within large, sometimes older, facilities which could be challenging for those with mobility issues. Despite these criticisms, the community's ambiance, consisting of friendly residents and professional staff, alongside clean and well-maintained facilities, generally contributed to a positive living experience. The community's efforts to renovate and update its facilities were acknowledged, even as some felt more improvements were necessary.
