Hawthorn Senior Living, LLC

My sister chose Fairview Estates because it is strictly an independent living community. I talked at length with the sales person and they explained the aging in place procedure and that sounded good to us. The apartment sizes completely adequate for one person. The friendliness of the staff and residents really sticks out. You walk down the hallways and everybody says hello, it is a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I would absolutely recommend them to others looking.

The staff have been very pleasant, friendly, courteous, accommodating, and helpful. The apartments are very nice. My loved one has a very nice view, a little balcony, and a small kitchen. It accommodates all her needs. One area for improvement is the food. In the beginning the food was good. But they changed companies, and now she and quite a few of the other residents are not as happy with it.

From the moment we walked in the doors we were both amazed. We were greeted so friendly by [name removed] and he made us feel welcome. There is a gorgeous piano as soon as you walk into the dining area which is beautiful! A lovely staircase as well as elevators. My Mother has chosen a spacious one bedroom with a balcony overlooking the golf course. On our tour she met two women already. We are looking forward for her to move in and visit her with my grandchildren. She should be moving in about 1 month so more to come............

This is a great place for my loved ones. My loved ones seems to enjoy the food served by the community. The staff have bent over backwards to assist me with any questions I have had. They get to know the resident and family by name.

It is a small community. It has a lot of good features. The residents and staff interactions have been good. The staff work hard to please the residents. There are three meals a day that are served in the dining room. The servers will ask the residents what they would like to eat, and bring it to the table for the residents. There is a main menu and alternatives for the residents to choose from.

This is a brand new community that is clean and beautiful. I would highly recommend the community to others for their loved ones. They have a positive culture here. The staff is caring and friendly. They have a lot of family get togethers once a month for all the residents. They have a lot of activities available for the residents to participate in. The apartments have different layouts. There are communal laundry rooms in the buildings for the residents to use.

Meadowlark Estates was a great place. We lived there for 8 years. We found so many things to do and enjoyed visiting with the people who lived there. They were so friendly, and the community felt like a family.

My loved one did not get to participate in many activities but they did have a lot going on. The staff are really wonderful and the community has a really warm sense. The people who work there run it like family. The grounds are very nice the people there just raved about how great it is. They encourage socializing all of the time and they check on the residents all of the time. They are caring diligent people that treat you like family the staff really care about the residents.

We moved my mom to Alexis from another state. She is independent and we were excited about everything they offered their residents to stay active and also form a sense of community. Her apartment is immaculate, staff is friendly, understanding and helpful. Highly recommend Alexis!

El Dorado Estates is a beautiful facility and they are located just right across the street from a really big shopping center. It has everything and we like that as our loved one continues to age they will not have to drive/walk far to shop for groceries, clothes, pet products etc. We love the fact that everything is in one lump sum - they get their meals daily, they have house keeping come make their beds and tidy up. There is one staff members in particular on the management team [name removed] who has just been wonderful. He is super nice and helpful. It was a tough transition for our parents moving out of their house and the management staff has just been so good to them. They do say sometimes they have to wait quite awhile for their meals to be brought out but overall the value for the money is excellent and we would recommend them to other families.

Our loved one is doing really well over there so far and we really like it. The staff members are super friendly and they actually show genuine concern. They are good with the residents and treat them really good. Our loved one seems to enjoy the meals and dining service for the most part. They do have a lot of different activities going on and based on the experience we have had so far we would recommend Cypress Springs to other families.

They have been extremely accommodating at this community and very personable with my loved one. My loved one is a quilter and likes to sew and they did not have these activities. Once they found out that my loved one had this interest they set up a whole sewing room and that made my loved one feel great. This community includes all of the meals and the value from what all other things I have seen this seems like the best.

Good community, it was too far from family.

The residents and staff are very nice and go out of their way to make you feel like part of a family. The staff are good to work with the family if we have any questions or concerns about loved one. The food is good. They are willing to accommodate the resident's needs if the food needs to be delivered. The apartment, changing of linens, laundry, housekeeping, utilities, and all the meals are included in the monthly fee. You are able to pay extra for an outside agency to come in and help your loved one in the community.

I am very young to be here and I am here due to an injury. It is a gracious way for people who can still live independently and just need a little assistance or guidance, it is great for this. The meals is the one area where I see some problems, they have some issues with consistency in this area. They have activities like bingo, card games, massages, they have a salon on site and they even have activities where they take people out twice a week to do things. There are a lot of activities to do things in the community to be active and busy.

We brought our family member in from out of state and dropped him off late. He ended up knocking on doors at 2 am and left the facility and got locked out. So I got a call in the morning letting me know that he can't stay there. So we ended up hiring 24-hour care so he could stay there until we found a new place. They stayed up until 1 am to await his arrival that first night, and during the time he was there, the staff was very accommodating. The place itself is phenomenal. I just wish it would have worked out because it was so nice.

This community was very nice and they gave me all of the information I needed in regards to this community. This community was very attractive but the amenities would have been three times the price.

Glenmoore without a doubt gets 5 stars, the staff members are super friendly and so nice. There is a little bit of a language barrier with our loved one and we are so appreciative with how helpful the staff has been. They have many different activities going on throughout the week. The only small drawback is it is a little expensive, but based on the experience we have had so far we would recommend them to other families.

I have spent a few years looking for a place where my(number removed)-year-old mother will feel comfortable. She's finally found what she was looking for at Magnolia Heights in Franklin, MA. The layout of the building is great; residents don't have to walk too far to get to the central community areas. Most apartments have balconies. There's plenty of light all around; it doesn't feel stuffy at all. I've shared a few lunches at their dining area and I noticed a good sense of community. (name removed), the activities director, is a fun person to be around and her enthusiasm for her job is contagious. There are plenty of events and activities for the residents to participate in. I especially appreciate that (name removed), the sales manager, actually listens to her residents and projects a warmth that seems so lacking in other professional retirement communities. She's always available to help new residents get used to their surroundings during the difficult transition of moving in.
