Hawthorn Senior Living, LLC

There is a lot planned and good activities but they are understaffed to carry out some of the activities but they do still go out and do things for the residents. They have things everyday like cook outs, arts and crafts and more. This community is gracious living just like they advertise. There are beautiful surroundings and the meals and dining are like top chef food everyday. The management team is also nice and responsive. All of the apartments also have a chain to pull just in case they need help even though its independent living.

What really stood out to us right off the bat were the staff members. They have just continued to go above and beyond for our loved one, they are extremely helpful and so friendly. They are also very responsive to any questions we have.

This is a bright, and clean community. The staff have been very nice to work with. The management team has changed, so far the new change has been good. The dining room is bright and the service is good.

Everyone at the Carolina Estates has been very helpful, and they are very responsive to any questions that we have. It is a very welcoming and friendly atmosphere, our loved ones are very comfortable there.

We have gotten the best care that they could offer. My loved one needs more care so we may have to move him but they have done all they can. I have not found anything that I can complain about and this is the upmost best place I have been to.

Our family had an in person tour and it was wonderful. The staff we met with were incredibly nice and one big thing that stood out to us was the director and the marketing team were not all about business. They wanted to make sure our loved one was going to be placed at the perfect community whether or not it was the Salishan or some place else. We really appreciated that, and the only reason we did not choose Salishan was because at the time they did not have a memory care unit.

We came for our tour around mealtime, and we saw the ladies there dressed up for dinner. The woman who took us on the tour was also dressed very nicely, in a skirt and heels. My loved ones are very plain, down-to-earth people, and this just wasn't the right setting for them. But I thought it was very nice. The apartments were a little small. But I thought the hallways and the décor were much nicer than where my loved ones ended up. The décor wasn't bland and dull like you find in some places, and the facility was more updated. They had a really nice main sitting area.

This is a great place to have your older relatives stay. The staff are helpful and supportive. In general I feel that they will be happy here. I have not spoken with anyone here that is not happy.

The community is great. There are beautiful views with balconies, and there are lots of decorations for celebrations. The resident's birthdays are celebrated each time. The managers go above and beyond to assist the residents. There is transportation available. The food is not edible and it is heavily spiced with large amounts of breading.

We chose Estrella Estates because we walked in and she just fell in love, she said it felt like a home rather than a facility. She got the warm and fuzzies. The food here is really good, we have eaten here a couple of times. The residents were very welcoming and helped her feel a part of the community. Staff are extremely friendly, I would give them more than a 5 if I could. I would recommend to others looking.

We chose Ashwood Meadows because they have so many activities. The van goes out 5 days a week for doctors appointments, grocery shopping, outings, etc. The facility is pet friendly and she did not have to pay a pet deposit which is nice. They have outside spots where residents can walk, it is a very well laid out facility. They have a heated and air conditioned storage unit right next door if you need that extra space too. There is always someone from management inside the facility which is great. Overall it has been a wonderful experience and I would absolutely recommend to others looking.

This is a good place and community to live. The care services seem to be good for those that need it. The activities are good and appropriate. There have been some problems hiring people with covid and the cleaning but overall it has been pretty good.

In the middle of May I brought my Aunt {81) from Florida so that she could be near family. I have to admit the month to month lease was peace of mind since she was moving here site unseen. Well here she is 4 months in and not 1 complaint. The food is good and plenty . Her Apartment is cute and she says the size is perfect. There are different Activities to choose from and plenty of trips out to stores and excursions. I think She loves the scenic rides with [name removed] the best. She enjoys her sweets so the 24 hr soft serve ice cream machine is a big hit. The staff at Ivy Creek are so nice and helpful. [name removed] & [name removed] the managers are fabulous! [name removed] from maintenance is always pleasant and ready to help even when its her fault for pushing the wrong buttons on the AC. [name removed] always takes time to bring a smile to everyone. If you are looking for a 3 meal a day, beautiful home go visit Ivy Creek, we are happy we did. In fact my Aunt will tell you she should have done this move years ago.

Overall it's a very nice, very professional, and very clean facility. In the limited experiences I've had so far with the staff, they have all been great They're very positive, open, and friendly. They want to help anyone who needs help. They always say hello to the residents there, even if they're in the middle of dealing with another situation. My loved one says the food is good, although he can be happy eating pretty much anywhere. Activities are still limited due to Covid, but they're trying to keep everyone safe. And they have beautiful grounds and plenty of outdoor space so you don't feel cooped up inside.

This senior independent living residence is the perfect place for my dad. He loves it there. Staff are kind, caring, and helpful. He gets to meet and enjoy people his own age, appreciates good food, participates in activities.

Visited Desert Springs in Oro valley to inquire about a place for my mom. Met [name removed] who greeted me and showed me around. She was very caring, helpful, and informative. The place is very nice as was the staff. Signed a contract for an apartment for my mom but as time got close it was determined she would need 24/7 care. So I had to change plans and put my mom in a nursing home. [Name removed] was very understanding and only wished for the best outcome. I appreciate her caring. I recommend Desert Springs highly.

Everything is going perfectly fine at Bella Vista, our friend seems to really be enjoying the community and is happy with their choice.

I think they have a lot of opportunities if the resident takes advantage of them. They are certainly interested in the welfare of their residents, and they get to know them. The food is pretty good. In my estimation, they have been great. My loved one has been there several months now, and my only question is how long she'll be able to stay with her health situation, but that will be my decision when the time comes. I have experienced no pressure from Ivy Creek by any means.

Our family had an in person tour, and the experience was really good. The Highlands is a very nice facility, very clean and lovely. However it was more towards independent living and they did not have the nursing services we were looking into for assisted living.

I would recommend the community and already have to others. The staffing is concerned and conscientious about each resident. They have card, Wii Bowling, heated pool, and more for the residents to participate in.
