Avista Senior Living

We moved Dad into The Peridot in Prescott, AZ just two days ago. So far, his experience has been great! The staff are all friendly and helpful. The place is clean and comfortable. The dining room is well lit, spacious, and the food is delicious. (I stayed for dinner last evening and it was very good.) Dad's apartment is large and well apportioned. He even has a large patio and storage unit. The costs are less than half the cost of the place he was in back in California, and less than the other places I checked out in this area. So far, very pleased.

Absolutely love their approach to memory care with the 'Join Their Journey' program. It makes so much sense and seems so very compassionate. The facility is laid out sensibly for feeble, elderly folks suffering from dementia. The ratio of staff to residents is comparable to some of the other facilities we've visited with employees that have been working there a long time (that's good!).

This was a beautiful place. Had lunch there. The food was very good. Unfurnished Apts.and Studios.Very Nice.

This was absolutely a wonderful experience for us to place our Mom at such a nice place. The facilities and more importantly the people are awesome.

My loved one lives there, not me. The best features of the community are the friendliness of the staff and the value they offer for the money, but they could offer more activities and the care services could be better too.

My loved one’s don’t participate in the activities, so I can’t really speak to them. Pioneer Valley Lodge is a great place to be. The parking is okay. The food is great. They’re a clean and friendly community.

She is just very happy there. This place was more economical and met our needs better than anyplace else that we saw. They take trips to do things. They have free laundry facilities, with free detergent even. The food is okay most of the time, I think they use some canned vegetables, instead of fresh or frozen. I would like to see more fresh fruits and vegetables. They have a choice of different options if you don't like what they are having, which is nice. They do have set meal times. They had a more mobile clientele than some of the places we saw. There is a more even ratio of men to women.

My loved one doesn’t really participate in the activities. It’s an excellent place to check out. I’ve seen the food and my loved one has no complaints. We have no complaints about parking or laundry service. I recommend them.

My mom loves the place. She tells me that everyone is friendly. When I first mentioned that we should go look at the place she would not go, now she tells me she wishes she had of went sooner. I would recommend this place to anyone.

My wife is happy with it. I was kind of astounded that she would be, but she has been. From the top to the bottom the people have been excellent. The whole place is fantastic. So far it couldn’t be better. I’d give them fives all the way down. The staff is very friendly.

They are very clean and nice and the food is good and the people are nice, but it’s not a memory care community. It’s a good place for assisted living, but not memory care.

Beautiful facility, clean, spacious, nice apartments, decent prices. Note that the more info tab on this listing goes to a page that incorrectly says that smoking is allowed in indoor public areas--Not so! No smoking allowed at this facility. (Good)

They've really been great here! All of the staff are very accommodating and caring, and everyone seems like they really love their job. The facility itself is very nice looking, and the community itself is just the right size. It's not big enough that getting lost is an issue, but still has a nice sized population for socializing. The pricing is also very fair compared to some of the communities we looked at.

Beautiful. Too much for mother's need.

Everything is great! If I ask for something, they are very good to respond. They're very aware of people's needs. They send me a brochure every week for what is going on in the whole facility, and also for my sister specifically. She is eating better, and doing much better than she was before.

Everything here gets full marks. It's a nice place, the staff are friendly, and the care provided it good.

This is a great place, and I was really a fan of how family oriented they are. They are just as friendly and caring to family members as to the residents themselves. They learn everyone's name, and address and concerns quickly. Everyone we've spoken with has been friendly, outgoing, and caring.

Very positive experience. Tom was fabulous! Answered all of our questions and concerns in a very sensitive way. Talked directly to mom. The facility was clean, bright and an overall positive feel!

They were wonderful. They took time with us and they answered all my questions. They were genuinely concerned about me and my situation. My mom will be staying there as long as she can. She really has enjoyed it. She liked the people and the atmosphere. The food is great - she says it's too much but she has a small appetite. They have activities. She really enjoys the fact that they take her to the temple every Wednesday and she goes to the Sunday evening moving that they have. She talks about putting together puzzles and things. She enjoys the company. The location is nice. Mom could walk around in the area if she wanted to. I think it was a good choice for her.

This place was amazing. But very high end. 351 sq. ft. studio for $2470.00. Just a slight step below where Dad is living. They don't have any openings right now. You have to wait list. Community fee is $1500.00. Pretty small units but very nice and well maintained. 3 meals included. Weekly housekeeping. If she wants her laundry done that would be extra.
