Brand new and very expensive, but a very nice place. Moving out was kind of like she went from the Mercedes to the Volkswagen. She liked the fact that they had everything, a mini kitchen in her room and her own bathroom. For my mother this was a lot more accommodating.

We can't tell you how happy we are that we are here. We researched for a while and they had so much more to offer and were a little less expensive. We are thrilled and just love it! Food is very good! We can't encourage people enough to move here. We are sorry that we didn't do it earlier. We like everything! First, I don't feel like I'm living in a retirement place, it feels just living in a condo, or a hotel, because I don't have to cook or clean. They change linens and do the laundry. All you have to do is personal clothes. Everyone here from the help on up is so nice and friendly. We have met so many people. From 7:30 in the morning to 10 at night there is something to do. They have exercises and entertainment, and they go on trips. When our children come and visit they thing they are on a cruise! One was saying they felt like they were at Disneyland!

Not only is the property beautiful, but the staff is very friendly and helpful. Richmond Place has been very accommodating.

I loved the apartments at Freedom Village. They are spacious and bright. They are in the middle of a big renovation project but still I had an instructive tour. This might be my first choice if it weren't farther than I want to be from my family in Newark, DE. There are several (5 I think) dining rooms that are smaller and more intimate than those in other CRCC's that I have seen.

My father was in the new wing and it was second to none. We could go in there anytime, we could go with my dog (he's well-mannered and trained) and they allowed it. The fact that I could just go at 12 o'clock at night, it was amazing and I loved that but just like every nursing home, they're all very understaffed. That's just them all tought, they're all understaffed and you, as a family member, if you have a job, if you have a life, it's bad because you've got to be up there to pick up the slack. One time I went there and my dad had two of these patches on and it says not to do that because you could die from that.

I have friends that are there now and I visit them at least once a month for dinner. It's Hyatt regency quality. Everyone complains about everything in every facility but when you get down to it you can't do any better than Casa De Las Campanas. That's a buy in and it's not for everyone because it costs several thousand dollars just to buy in. A friend of mine who is there complains that the trees are growing too high and she can't see the lake. If that's the worst thing that happens to you then you've got it pretty well wired. She's been there 20 years.

Know this facility well - have family living here.

My father is in independent living so there aren't a lot of services that he's getting. He gets meals once a day and housekeeping, I think once a month, and they're fine. They activities are oaky. I think the management team has been exceptionally patient with my dad when he had presented some challenges their way. I think he ended up in the best place for him.

This facility is a buy in. This would not be an option for my parents.

This is one of my top choices. I was very impressed with everything.

Most of the staff here is very friendly except for about one or two of them. They could have a little more flexibility with their activities. This is the best community we have found in the Birmingham area. Our loved one likes it here and actually wants to stay. They provide excellent care. It is a community that seems to lean toward independent residents but you can hire your own care if needed. The food is just excellent and the main dining area is top notch. Family members actually come and eat here. It seems like due to how nice it is it would be a more expensive then it really is only about $3,400 a month.

It is very clean, it offers a manageable community to navigate for an elderly peson who has eye and mobility issues, the staff is great, it is a catholic community (which wasn't necessary but it was nice), it's close to me, there was an in unit washer/dryer, and a balcony that my mom could enjoy. The thing that we don't like is the cost to buy in is pretty high, it would be better if it was lower or if it was a monthly thing but she had to buy in and pay monthly charges as well. It was more that it fit her stage of life now, it's very clean, off a main road, it's very friendly (even the residents and staff) and that had a lot to do with our decision. She is having transition issues, which I understand people her age do, but I think she's enjoying it.

We just really like it here. We don't participate too much but the activites are fine. There's a lot of them. It's just exactly what we want. We go up to eat our meals and I'm very happy with that. The staff in the dining room and the staff all over the place is just wonderful. They are just the best. There was a two bedroom, which we needed.

The meals are a five, I know that because I had one there. That was very good. My mom hasn't joined a lot of the activities. She talks to a lot of pleople but she hasn't gotten into the activities yet. I know she will eventually but she's more relaxed right now. She's very happy there. They have bingo, wii games, sing-a-longs, buses for church and the grocery and wallgreens. There are a lot of things. When we went to tour the place everybody was great. The place was really clean and it was easy to talk to people, even the residents. It seems like the people really care.

Beautiful community. We do want to continue to look before making a decision. We are interested in looking at some of the other Brookdale properties and also something closer to Lithia.

Very nice warm environment small (80 beds) all services ala carte

Everyone at Freedom Pointe went above and beyond to accommodate us for a temporary place for my Dad, on short notice. He is very happy there and he says that the food is wonderful. That was a huge thing, since he had been loosing weight, not liking the food elsewhere. He is doing really good there. Very thankful for the staff at Freedom Pointe.

My mom likes this one best. Has a one bedroom and is clean, big and Bright! Only downside is has been opened since Aug 2012. Think this is the one for us.

3 levels of care but in 3 different buildings. beautiful! vibrant, but ONLY can keep cats in independent living. Must give up in personal care.

Have taken a tour. It is a terrific facility and location.
