Calson Management

Everyone is very nice & helpful & accommodating. Our first experience & couldn't be happier.

We liked Pacifica best out of all in that area. It was really nice, recently remodeled and seemed really nice. The grounds were very nice, it was a small area since it's more or less in the city. If we would have moved Mom to Bakersfield this is where we would have gone.

My mother's been there for about three months and the place is lovely and the people are lovely, unfortunately she doesn't' feel well so she participates zero. The food is very iffy. She's used to a diet full of fresh vegetables, whole grains, and it's just really not happening there. That's difficult for her but as far as attentiveness and them being there in case of an emergency and helpful and their responsiveness, they're great. The place is clean and the people are very kind and cheerful. Everyday in the elevator I see the list of activities. There's bingo, yoga, music, bridge, movies, etc. They have a lovely patio. The facility is beautiful and you have all sorts of people there. You don't get a feeling of an "old folks home." It's more like a 4 star or 5 star hotel. Her room has nice, high ceilings - it didn't feel small. As soon as I saw that room I knew that was it for her.

Staff are wonderful and caring. They know all the residents. Activities include games (my mom loves bingo) music and therapy dogs. Food is pretty good. Most importantly Mom has adjusted and now enjoys living there. I would also add the celebrate holidays. For Memorial Day the had a BbQ and music. My mom isn't that mobile but they do have outings to restaurants and other places for the residents

The facility is in near downtown Oakland near Lake Merritt. It has very nice views of the lake and Berkeley/Oakland hills. The place has a lot of nice amenities and provides 3 meals a day. Overall, I would consider this a place to live.

My sister in law has been very happy there. They have plenty of activities, good food and overall service. She has met a lot of nice people, and the staff are good too.

Residents and staff are friendly and helpful. food is unremarkable,. Wait time for meals in the dining room are on the average more than 15 minutes.. One of three elevators has been out of service for months (according to long time residents,) which causes wait time at the elevators more than 5 minutes at peak use times. In my apartment the sheer drapery fabric is torn because of age and the drapery for the patio door is missing, one of the pulley cords is a string which does not function. One closet is missing a sliding door.I moved in 39 days ago and do not have housekeeper. The acoustics in common areas are poor which makes it difficult to have a conversation with so much unattenuated sound. The housekeeper laundry machines have been out of order since I moved here. Residents can only use the resident laundry before 8 AM and after 5PM week days until house keeping machines are repaired. The top shelves are too high to reach without a ladder (I’m 5’9” tall).

I'd recommend it. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Since the Farmstead is the first and only place that we have experienced renting from, I'd say we're all happy with them but we have no way of knowing how it compares to others

Entryway nice - room to drive up and load or unload. Security presently a sign-in with a guard - being updated to a keypad soon, I was told. Building fairly new, recently upgraded . Seismic work, I was told, and paint and fixtures - probably furniture - it looked new. Hallways long. Unit I saw was pleasant, fairly roomy. Kitchen area was tiny - looked to be there so toey could say the unit had a kitchen. Laundry at end of hall. Clubs, groups, entertainment from their monthly calendar kas expected. Tenants suggested groups, activities director would set 'em up, if I recall correctly. Nice library: good selection. Had a wood shop, well-equipped. Didn't eat a meal there, and didn't see (many) residents, so can't judge either for satisfaction, thus my rating is not complete.

They are very attentive and caring. Not a 5 as I think they could use more help. However mom is happy, eating well and free to wander/roam within the memory care unit. Rooms are sufficient, mom has her single bed, her bureau, her recliner & a little end table and chair, still plenty of room The rooms are vacant, you need to furnish. The plus side to that is familiarity and comfort. When moving someone from a place they know, it's good to fill their room with familiar furnishings and decor.

Housekeeping is supposed to be included. No, we would not recommend Lake Park Senior Living community to other families. I'm sure there are worse places. I don't think she is getting her monies worth. My thoughts on Lake Park Senior Living-sells people are really good at their jobs. Much room for improvement. I recommend checking out other places. I wish I had

Well kept facility, friendly and caring staff. Frequent turnovers of some admin, finance/billing system is antiquated. Residents are safe and well cared for. Food is less than desirable.

We really were happy with Cornerstone, [name removed] was great to work with and spent a lot of time with us when we were looking. They were able to accommodate my Father in Law at one days notice after an Emergency Room visit and were super helpful. All of the staff are extremely nice and caring. We struggled a tiny bit when he moved rooms and they couldn't seem to get the carpet installed correctly and one of the pull cords had a shorter cord than it should have been. I think any family still needs to ensure they advocate for their loved one especially with Medicines, my father in Law was super regimented when taking his own meds. So having them transferred to having Cornerstone administer was a bit of a transition.. but it will depend on each individual's needs. Their activities and services offered are great and they work really hard to offer a lot of fun activities.

It's a nice community. It's quiet and clean and the staff are nice and accommodating. My aunt enjoys the food.

It was a nice, friendly facility for my mother who was struggling with Alzheimer.

Someone whom I met through Avenidas showed me numerous memory care facilities from Redwood City to MV. I had almost decided on one for my loved one before we toured VT, the last place..The decision was made! Villa Toscana is clean,new, corridors are well lighted, inviting for walks, the dining area is bright with a lovely view of the hills. The open air patio is a super place to enjoy the sun- or shade under a big umbrella. The staff is competent, friendly and caring. One might wish for a few more activities but that will probably happen as more residents move in. Villa Toscana is an excellent “home” for my husband.

Very pricey what I do like about it is that it’s a retirement community. Also, if it were just assisted-living in memory care, it would be a little bit depressing my mom‘s not too happy to be there but that’s because she would rather be somewhere else. her house flooded. She’s been living with me and I can’t pick her up so I can’t Have her stay with me. The staff is really nice. The facilities is beautiful. The food is really good. The ambience is nice. They have lots of activities.

Food. Attention to detail. My Mom could not use silverware, yet when I came by one day at lunch time she had a bowl of soup in front of her. Quality of care. My Mom fell the first two nights she was there. We had a meeting and decided it was because she had never been in a wheelchair. They promised not to use the wheelchair anymore. About a month later she began falling again. She fell three times and had to go to the hospital for stitches twice. Someone had started putting her back into the wheelchair.

I stayed here for 4 weeks. The staff were really excellent. The nurse who checked my entire body for bed sores. Very thorough. The food is not that great but you can use DoorDash to get food delivered. Also the rooms are a good size. I didn’t feel cramped. They have a room where you can play games such as dominoes etc. The physical therapy guys are very good too. The only thing is they checked my vitals many times throughout the day and nite. I do highly recommend.

They have the kindest and most happy staff. Always checking in on my 96 yr old mother. Take her to bingo and make sure she’s dressed and ready.They have excellent med management. Food is mediocre but not horrid.
