Loving life at Salmon Creek Gracious Living

The staff are all upbeat and accommodating from the managers all the way down to the housekeeping / maintenance staff. Love all the on-site amenities. The physical therapist is busy all day helping residents stay strong or overcome injuries. The meals are 5-star, in my opinion. There's loads of activities and the weekly group outings go to some fabulous places. All this is evident by observing how happy all the residents are every day. I will be living there when it's my time to stop living in my home.

From the moment we walked in, we knew this was the place to home them. The staff considers it the residents's home and tells them so. Managers live on-site so they have skin in the game as far as the operations go. I could live there myself -- and well may in a couple of decades!

I’ve lived at Glenmoore for years and I love it. There’s no buy in and no pet fee. The managers live here, and there are 2 of them available 24 hours a day. We are just off Sunnyside, so it’s residential but very near tons of shopping. It’s like a big family! We have a bus for transportation and lots of fun activities.
