Meridian Senior Living

Loved the 1st impression of a clean and comfortable place. The size of the rooms, and the floorplans that were well thought out. The bathrooms were especially nice. The shower had a cushioned pull down seat. The price was lower than other places with more living space. It was a quiet neighborhood. The facility was very calm and friendly.

Fabulous facility.

Really liked it. M&D liked what we told them.

Dad gives this place very high marks after visiting it.

Would give maintenance 3.5 out of 5. The primary reason we selected Hidden Springs was that we could easily migrate her from Independent living to Assisted living when needed.

We chose Cypress Place because it was closest to my home and also it had more of a homey cozy feel to it as opposed to feeling like a hotel or cruise ship. It just fit his personality the best. They do have a system where you have to talk to someone at the front desk to get buzzed into the memory care area, so quite often you have to wait. Breakfast and lunch are terrific, but dinner sometimes has not been so great. The staff have all been wonderful. I would definitely recommend this facility to others who are looking.

This is great if you want someone close to DC with a good price and good size. My loved one really enjoys the staff as well as our family.

I thought Villas of Holly Brook - Marshall was very nice. It was a great facility, very clean, and the people there were really nice. It just wasn't going to fit our mom’s needs - her dementia had progressed too far.

Overall, the staff has been absolutely fantastic. They're great people, and they cater to my loved and myself very well. It's been a hard transition for me, and they recommended a support group, which has been golden to me. From the director to the people who do the cleaning, they all you know your name and call you by name. They really go out of their way to make sure they know you and your loved one. I'm very pleased. It was a good choice.

It is an okay community. The community accepted my loved one into the community. My loved one is close to home and that was important to me. Gentry Park worked with me for the memory care unit. I am thankful for the community working with me. The Marketing Director was a saint to me and worked with me all weekend through text messaging; to allow my loved one to come into the community. Most of the meals looks appetizing. There have been times that the kitchen staff will forget juice, silverware, or glasses.

I have been to the Villas several times for visits. One thing i noticed was the residents all seemed to be happy, satisfied and without complaint. I believe the best way to evaluate the quality of an assisted living facility such as this is to see how the residents present themselves. Everyone i met was comfortable, content, and happy to see us. That tells me that this facility is a quality place.

My mother has been at Hollybrook for 2 years and we are very happy with the place. Even with the Covid-19 problems they are often coming up with novel entertainment ideas that are thoughtful. I am impressed with their safety measures as well. Before Hollybrook we were at a facility in Springfield that cost much more and the staff was quite bad, regardless of the shift. We also tried another that had very good staff and also cost much more but my mother didn't like the multiple levels or the formal, stilted atmosphere. This place doesn't have those problems at all. As others have said, the Hollybrook price is quite competitive, the single level is great for exercise and figuring out how to get around and the homey atmosphere of the place is not intimidating.

My mom has been at Hollybrook for a year now. We took her out of a much more expensive facility to be closer to home. Before that she was in a more expensive facility for rehab that packed people in like sardines. She actually likes Hollybrook better because it is more like family and there is lots to do. She likes going to the movies, most every afternoon. An added bonus is that it's cheaper than Springfield facilities. The staff has been great, too. The best way to put it is that it's very nice but it's friendly, not fancy and lonely.

I am really happy with the services and treatment my parents are receiving at this location.

My father is 95 and has dementia. After looking at six facilities, I moved my father up from Florida to the Villas at Holly Brook. The facility is clean and pretty; the apartments are real apartments with comfortable amenities and french doors that lead out onto individual patios. The staff has been helpful and loving to him and has taken responsibility as needed. He has been living there 9 months now and the entire staff, from the director to the CNAs to the kitchen crew, knows who my father is and always greets him by his first name. Everyone treats him like family. As his dementia has increased and he comes closer to the end of his life, the staff remains steadfast and in alignment with my wishes for my father's care. The entire experience has been a huge blessing. I highly recommend Villas of Holly Brook for anyone whose elder needs assisted living.

My mother moved to Merrywood after a house fire, thinking she would 'go home' after her home was repaired. She loved Merrywood and stayed. We were so pleased with everything and everyone. When mother's health declined, we used home health to keep her in her beloved Merrywood apartment. Merrywood answered all our hopes. AND NOW her brother and his wife have moved to Merrywood. Relief that they are safe and secure in this top notch community.

Excellent, very personal, quick coordination by the coordinator.

This facility is really nice and it’s in a beautiful location. It’s right on the water and my Mother’s room is actually facing the ocean. The food is delicious and the restaurant is open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. The staff is great and they actually just got a new executive director whose main focus is on resident care. The only reason why I didn’t give them a 5 is they said they had an arrangement with a local country club for the residents to use the pool. When my mom finally moved here, we found out that is not the case. I would recommend this facility to other families.

While looking for a place for my loved one, we have toured facilities in Florida and New York. This location mostly fitted us financially and it was a lot nicer in our eyes. The only complaint that I would give is toward the wait staff & kitchen staff. Sometimes after you order you could sit there for forty five minutes before serving you. There are other times where you will receive your food right away. I think it is just because the place is new and there is a new staff. But you know, people are old and they might get irritated if they have to wait that long for their food. The food itself is good however, it is better than expectations. There is no problem with the portions and the have daily changes to their menu. One side of the menu is set where you can order what you can always get and on the other side they apply the daily changes. There is no issue with their cleanliness. Housekeeping comes in every day to make my loved one’s bed and they give her medication as well. Also they come in once a week to clean the apartments. They have a daily sheet that they print out with a page of activities. They have exercise classes, bridge, and they do various off site events with transportation provided. They have a very nice car that actually took my loved one and me to go shopping off schedule, but they were really nice about it. They also have a beautiful movie theatre and they a different movie every night at 7:00pm. It is not the typical folding chairs; it’s a really nice area with comfortable seating. Overall I am very pleased with this facility. I tell my loved one it’s a like a cruise ship that’s not moving since it’s near the water.

This community is very clean and well taken care of. They keep mom's apartment clean as well as they do her laundry. The entire staff are nice and take good care of her. She is making friends and is starting to participate in some of the activities. The food looks and smells good. We know she is safe here and we do not have to worry about her as they are always there for her.
