Residents and their families say:

This community is praised for its caring, professional, and friendly staff, with numerous positive remarks about the quality of care provided, particularly in the memory care unit. Families highlighted the compassionate attention their loved ones received, which contributed to a sense of family and belonging. The facility itself was noted for its clean, spacious rooms and the range of activities offered, including outings to restaurants and various in-house entertainment options, which cater to the interests and needs of the residents. The dining experience was generally well-regarded, with residents enjoying the food and the dining setting described as rustic and comforting.

However, there were some concerns regarding the cost of care, especially as needs increased, which some families found challenging. A few reviewers expressed disappointment with certain aspects of the facility's management, including covid protocols and aspects of the physical environment, like lighting. Despite these issues, the overall sentiment was that the benefits, including the location, the quality of the rooms, and the engaging activities, outweighed the drawbacks for many. The caring nature of the staff and the welcoming atmosphere played significant roles in the decision-making process for prospective residents and their families, making it a highly considered option for those who could afford it.
