Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered a wealth of positive feedback for its cleanliness, friendly staff, and wide range of amenities including exercise rooms, a library, a hair salon, laundry services, a courtyard, and activities such as trivia, dominoes, card games, and craft projects. The dining options are described as inviting, with the menu receiving particular praise for its variety, indicating that the meals are well-liked. The sense of community is strong, with many reviewers appreciating the opportunities for residents to engage in social activities, making it easy for residents to feel at home. Apartments are noted to be spacious, comfortable, and well-designed, contributing to the overall satisfaction of the residents and their families.

However, some concerns were mentioned, including restrictions on the use of scooters, the lack of medical staff on site, and some residents feeling that the rules regarding electric-powered chairs were not communicated until after moving in. Another point of contention for some was the size and layout of rooms, as well as the service in the dining area, described by one reviewer as slow due to employing handicapped individuals. Additionally, the practice of assigning dining tables did not sit well with a few, and occasional comments on meals and the need for better parking facilities were noted. Despite these drawbacks, the overarching sentiment is that this community offers a reliable, comfortable, and engaging living experience for its residents, underscored by a compassionate and professional staff.
