Our Loved One Thrived Here

They were very caring, everyone there. They truly cared about the people who lived there. The building was very nice and clean, which is one of the main reasons we put her there. It didn't feel like a facility. It felt like a home.

They have several activities for the residents and try to get the residents engaged in the activities available. From the very first contact they truly showed they cared and have continued to show this caring aspect. All the staff make it work. It is a community I would highly recommend to others. The staff call you back if you have questions or concerns over your loved one. They are pet friendly. There is no odor to the community.

It is very nice and lovely with super nice people

The community is very lovely, they have nice quality furniture throughout and very nice art work. Nothing is cheap or cheesy - for example they have real flowers and not plastic ones. There are plenty of activities to participate in, and even though it is a little expensive it is worth it and we would recommend to others.

We like that it is a newer facility and even though it is independent living here is accountability there with the staff to check on our loved one. They have an automated system so if the residents don't push a button by a certain time in the morning the staff come to check on them. Also our loved one was able to get an ADA apartment that is well suitable for her needs.
