A cheerful place

Chestnut House seems like a very nice and cheerful place. The care has been very good. It is a much better situation than she was living in before. We visited other places and at Chestnut House the staff really impressed us and the facility seemed very clean and cheery which is why we chose it.

The staff was very nice. The facility new and inviting. Nothing was bad and we are considering this place as a place for my mom to live. The only down side was price. It's $4,100 a month verses $2,700 a month at Heritage of Portage. It might be hard to justify the price difference.

More for independent living

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my Aunt. The reason why we did not pick this community is that they were more of an independent living facility and they didn’t have enough care to provide her. The marketing director was very helpful and informative. They answered all of our questions and gave us clear answers. It’s a very nice facility and the staff was friendly too. I would recommend it to other families.

There were a lot of amenities for the residents should they want to take part and all the staff was friendly. I felt that my mom would have done well here, but I did settle on a smaller community.

It's been a slow transition for my Dad

The staff here have been very sweet and they have been working with my dad on his transition here. My dad is blind and a fall risk so they make sure that they are aware of what he is doing and if he needs help. This is a smaller community which is nice. My dad enjoys going to the dining area and says the food is great. I would definitely recommend this community.
