Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive remarks for its friendly, kind, and patient staff, contributing to the peace of mind of families who live in different states from their loved ones. Residents appreciate the comprehensive care provided, including bathing and dressing assistance, as well as medication management. The facilities are praised for their cleanliness, modern amenities, and the variety of activities available to residents, including arts and crafts and movie showings. The food quality is notable, with staff willing to accommodate dietary changes. The community is described as beautiful and well-maintained, with spacious and well-lit rooms that resemble apartments more than traditional care settings. Residents enjoy a sense of security within a gated community, and many testimonials highlight the staff's caring and respectful approach across different roles, from caregivers to maintenance personnel.

However, some negative points were raised, such as issues with room sizes and the aesthetic of common areas, which some found to be sterile or outdated. The pricing, in relation to room size and facilities, was a concern for a few reviewers, particularly when considering the value presented by older parts of the facility. Despite the overwhelmingly positive feedback on staff, there were occasional mentions of the staff being a bit lacking at times. Additionally, some relatives of residents noted changes in management and inconsistencies in care, such as medication management not always being handled by nurses as expected, and a decline in food quality during weekends. These points, though less frequently mentioned, suggest areas where the community could focus on improving the consistency of care and service.
