Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered mixed reviews from residents and their families, highlighting both its strengths and areas that need improvement. Many reviewers praised the community for its friendly staff, affordable pricing, smaller size which fosters a welcoming atmosphere, and the variety of activities and outings offered to residents. The community is noted for being clean and providing ample space for residents, with some mentioning good value for the services provided, including housekeeping, laundry service, and a range of amenities such as a movie theater, salon, and ice cream parlor. A number of reviewers specifically appreciated the memory care section, mentioning its Montessori approach and the diverse themed areas geared towards engaging residents.

However, the community has faced criticism concerning aspects of communication, particularly with nursing and dietary departments, as well as overall responsiveness. Some reviewers expressed dissatisfaction with the quality and taste of the food, stating meals sometimes appear processed or lack freshness. The limited activities and perceived lack of a vibrant, engaging atmosphere were also points of concern for some families. Furthermore, issues with cleaning frequency and thoroughness in personal spaces, long response times to resident call buttons, and under-staffing were highlighted. Despite these criticisms, several reviewers have found this community to be a satisfactory choice due to its location, the personalized care from staff, and the generally positive living environment for their loved ones.
