Resort Lifestyle Communities

Beautiful facility. Very nice people. Marion was very helpful and knowledgeable. The apartments were lovely. Lunch was very good as well! Thank you for all of the info.

This is pretty much a brand new facility and everything looks great. This is an active community with super nice people. They do a very good job with keeping the community and her room well maintained. They have a very good staff here. There are nice activities offered. I've tried some of the meals and the food is good. I know she is safe and being cared for well. I'am pleased with all they have done for us.

My parents and I were pretty much settled on another location that was very nice and had a very strong reputation. We decided to visit Stone Oak, because my wife wanted us to get out of the house for a while. Since it was new, I had made up my mind that it would be expensive and would not have well established staff. As we pulled up to the entrance, we were greeted by a resident sitting on the bench outside. She provided a warm welcome and high recommendation. As we toured and wandered I believe every single resident we saw said "hi" and most everyone highly recommended the facility. We immediately knew this was the place! It seems everyone there is excited about the "new" chapter in their book of life, not their "final" chapter. What a unique community of fun, active seniors! As an independent living facility, it seems limited as to the circumstances that can be supported on site. If my parents need extensive care in the future, we will have a challenge and it may involve a move. This is a very real concern that we talked about, but ultimately felt the benefits outweighed the risk. This place felt like home for my folks, so we all decided we would deal with future events as they happen. Getting to know Steve, the property manager, helped seal the deal for us.

The care has been going very well for my mom at this community. The staff are helpful, responsive and informative with me if needed. The community is only a year old so a lot is still new and they keep it very tidy and clean. My mom participates in several things and she is enjoying it all.

The staff and the food are fantastic at this community. This is a beautiful well taken care of community in a pretty good location. I would definitely recommend this community to family and friends.

Stone Oak is independent living at its best! This is not a care center or for assisted living, but a community thoroughly designed for 55's and over to enjoy the freedom of retirement. The activities are varied and fun, the neighbors friendly and energetic, and the experiences always new and exciting.

We moved in when they opened 7 months ago and it is so much better than we ever thought. Not for anyone requiring assist (although you can hire any help you may need beyond the cost of rent), but so much to do otherwise! Great chef, activities, trainers here 5 days a week, pedicures are great, and if you don't want to drive, they can get you there. Glad to have met so many terrific new people, and the staff goes above and beyond. You'll love it!

Working with the management in the ownership really made moving Mom into Emerald Oaks a very easy process. The location is very nice and tidy but what I really like is that it is all inclusive. Every resident I come in contact with just raves about how great Emerald Oaks is and how it is the best place they've experienced themselves. Even though Mom is on a diet she really seems to enjoy the food. Her only complaint has been the water pressure in the shower so I can say we are very happy with the decision to have her there and would definitely recommend!

My wife and I are still settling in here at Emerald Oaks but the experience so far has been more than great! The place is brand new which is a plus and extremely clean. The staff are great and we keep ourselves busy with the many activities here. Since moving in my sister has also moved in which makes it even better. The food is great and we even have a few acquaintances! We are all very happy being a resident of Emerald Oaks!

This is truly a wonderful community and we are extremely pleased. The community is very well-kept, they come and clean my mother's room once a week. The staff is really great, they have been extremely helpful. Everyone is very kind and friendly. They offer a lot of activities through out the week. They have a chef, and he meets with the residents once a week to see what they would like eat. It has been a great experience and I would recommend it.

Absolutely beautiful. Loved it

Our experience with Savannah Pines has been a very good one so far! The staff here are friendly, professional, and very accommodating! They try to anticipate every need you might have, and they're more than happy to accommodate you on anything they might have missed. We're very satisfied with the service!

Beautiful surroundings.

After visiting a few other independent living communities, I walked into Stone Oak with my parents and it was like no other place we had been. The physical environment is beautifully designed very much like a nice hotel. It is light, fresh and more modern than others. The Main Street concept with fitness center, bank, arcade, store, hair salon, restaurant, theater, makes it feel like a village that you can enjoy without going outdoors. The residents and staff are genuinely friendly and caring. A great variety of activities are available every day. All are welcome but not pressured to get involved. The restaurant is fantastic and offers grab and go, cafeteria style, formal service and room service. The kitchens in the apartments are great too. The theater is amazing and offers movie series, new films and live presentations. I love that the price is all inclusive. The price is competitive with others in town but seems like a much better value for all that you get. The concierge service, valet parking, cleaning service, maintenance service is very personalized, convenient and included. When we left the day of our tour, my dad who did not want to visit, said "I think I could get used to this!". The next day he asked "can we move today?". They are very happy at Stone Oak and I thoroughly enjoy visiting and joining them for meals.

I am doing fine here at Savannah Pines. This is a good community. The community is very well kept and has housekeeping that comes and cleans for me. The staff has been great and helpful to me they are really nice. I feel they are very accommodating and always willing to help to me. The food is good and there is good activities for us here as well. Overall I am happy with everything this community has to offer.

Thank you for helping my husband and I find a senior home. We moved in on 2/26/16. We have found Capital Oaks to be a wonderful decision. The facilities, staff, food and all other services are wonderful. The help that we received from A Place For Mom was invaluable. We viewed and visited 5 facilities (All 5 were listed on the list provided by A Place For Mom). We chose Capital Oaks because it provided everthing we were looking for. I will gladly recommend Capital Oaks. Thank you.

I am very pleased with Emerald Oaks Retirement Resort since moving here. Things are going well.

We just moved our loved one to Emerald Oaks and it couldn't have been easier. We used AB movers who were fast, efficient and so helpful. The staff at Emerald has bent over backwards to help with this move from the moment I first toured there, then took our loved one there, to the move in. The residents are very friendly, walk right up to introduce themselves and will sit with new people at the meals so no one is alone. Other places we visited that were older, the residents already had their friends established which made it feel less friendly as we toured and when we ate a meal there. There is a larger % of men and couples here which made our bachelor loved one feel more comfortable.. His brand new apartment is large, bright and cheery. The building is done atrium style with soaring open ceilings so it feels airy and wide open. Meals are both buffet or order from your seat which he really likes. Food is available all day long on request. Meals can be delivered to your apartment for no charge and no tipping is allowed. Coffee, juice, tea, pre made sandwiches, fruit and soft serve ice cream is available 24/7 Movies in a beautiful huge theater are nightly, So many things to do...billiards, a library, cards, games, live entertainment weekly, large workout room with daily exercise program just to mention a few. Most of all are the friendly, caring staff and residents. I was told by a counselor for elderly that in an established facility the residents might already have the friendship groups formed, esp. at meals but in a new one, residents are looking to meet each other and form friendships. The group here certainly has proven it to be true. Also they seemed either younger in age....or at least in spirit. As for the price, they are all in the same $2500-3300 price range for 1 bedroom, but we felt Emerald offered more for the same amenities, and in the end they were less expensive for the same size 1 bedroom with complete kitchen, large rooms, upgraded appliances, granite counter tops, wall safe in room,and washer/dryer hook ups, There is a large laundry room on each floor, the machines are free to use so no need for all those quarters. Weekly housekeeping is done for the residents. And John the maintenance man, has already talked to us about installing the curtain rods for us....yes free of charge, it's part of their service.

My mother isn't the most outgoing person, yet she's made friends here quickly because the residents are so kind. She's also joining in with the games, puzzles, morning exercise class, worship service, and movies, all in the building. She likes how well-insulated the apartments are, so she's not hearing the neighbors. The staff is always friendly and attentive. The food is reasonable at times and great at other times, but always healthy, fresh, and varied. Certainly there are always other choices available in the dining room if she doesn't like the featured entree. This place has exceeded our expectations, and it's good to know my mother is happy.

My mom has not moved in yet from her assisting living. We have been very unhappy with the facility. When I talked to Stone Oak just got a good feeling. Prompt customer service. The facility is drop dead gorgeous. They are making the move for my mother stress free, which helps us out as daughters. My mom is 93 and has been at an assisted living for the last 4 years at a level zero care. We really think Stone Oak care and will work with our family. This place seems to be the new care for the elderly! Yippee!
