Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered high praise for its modern, newly redecorated interiors, and the bustling activity observed among residents. Positive feedback highlighted how residents were engaged in group activities, indicating a vibrant community life. The availability of amenities such as a juice bar where residents can freely get drinks was also mentioned positively. The staff, including the hospice team, received commendations for their caring, professional, and friendly demeanor, providing peace of mind to families that their loved ones are well taken care of. Families appreciated the clean environment, the quality and variety of food, and the beautiful setting of the facility, making it an inviting place for both residents and visitors. Additionally, the emphasis on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment was seen as a strength of this community, with several reviews suggesting it as an excellent and recommended choice for senior living.

However, there was a note of concern raised regarding the financial discussions, with one reviewer feeling uncomfortable about the thoroughness of the financial checks, to the point where it impacted their level of trust in the community. This sentiment seemed isolated, as it was not echoed across the board, but it's worth noting for those considering the community for their loved ones. Despite this, the majority sentiment leans heavily towards a positive experience, with the community's facilities, staff, and overall atmosphere being highly regarded by visitors, residents, and their families.
