Resort Lifestyle Communities

II think Cactus Valley is a very friendly community. However, they have constant staff turnover. The buffet dining has long lines sometimes, medium quality good. Pricey yearly increases.

Quarry Ridge was too much luxury and service. It felt oppressive. The community was pretty aggressive in its marketing. They were trying to sell us on services we didn't need. They put a time clock on getting a grand opening deal which I didn't appreciate. The only day to get the discount was a day when I was out of the country.

My loved one really had the wool pulled over his eyes. What they show is not what they get! We were shown around on a celebration day, great meal wonderful entertainment. Once moved in we find out its less than mediocre. Long lines at meals, food is ok if you like pork chop jerky and rice. Employees are not respected by the manager which leads to a quick turnaround. Sad to say hook line and sinker we were bought what the lady sold us only to see that it's not what ya get... renter beware!!!

They could have better quality meals, sometimes they are good and others not so much so could work on their consistency. However I would still recommend this community to other families.

We toured Capital Oaks, and it felt very stiff. It did not feel like a warm place. I certainly not pleased with the units that they showed us. And I was not really pleased with the dining setup. It was cafeteria-style dining. They do have sit-down, but I don’t think they’re encouraging that. And for people with walkers and disabilities, that just doesn’t work.

The managers are not very friendly. They do not know our names. The other 4 managers always knew our names. The food is not great.

Some things we used to enjoy have been eliminated. The food is fairly good. So far, the new managers are not very friendly with the residents.

This community was nice but the room sizes were very small and I wanted something bigger.

We chose Red Rock Pointe because their contract was not super binding which we liked. The apartment sizes at the facility are very large and spacious. The only problems my parents have with the facility is that their food is not served at their table, they are supposed to go serve themselves cafeteria style which is hard for my dad. So it would be more helpful if they were able to serve the food to the residents. They seem to be short staffed ever since the pandemic. Overall I would recommend to others looking.

We were not able to get well acquainted with the staff before they changed, but the ones we did meet were nice. We thought it was a pretty expensive community. We had a three bedroom apartment so we have plenty of space. The food was okay, they tried their best but the food was very predictable, but they did have a nice Sunday brunch.

One thing that we have noticed with this community is that the staff does not really communicate with us when things have changed. We find out things after the fact, and it is just not as good as it should be. There also is not much diversity in this community, we would say it is a zero. We do like the layout, the rooms are adequate they give you plenty of space. As far as the overall layout, every thing is easily accessible which makes it really nice.

They keep the community spaces and dinning room clean, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. The dinning room staff are outstanding. The management seems like they might have some trouble being completely transparent at time. Just because of the Covd-19 pandemic and community lock down, there haven't been many actives. With that said, the activities they do offer seem like they would be a better fit for those who are less active or mobile.

The food is not good. We have a new chef, things started off good but not really that good now. It has really changed in the last few years. They are taking folks with higher care needs. This is an Independent community and it feels more like Assisted Living. I like the staff. I like the layout.I have a deck on my unit. The location is wonderful, close to everything.

This is a newer facility and very nice on the in side. Outside offers nothing, no swim pool, poor landscaping, loud traffic, and no place for residents to enjoy the outdoors. Our host was new and could not or would not answer some questions. Lunch was excellent and had many choices. The activities calendar did offer as much as other communities we visited. They do not offer assisted living, or memory care, which we would like to have available.

The rooms were nice but the cafeteria eating was a dealbreaker. We did not enjoy the food. [Name removed] didn't take the time to tell us about the food options if you don't want what is being served. In fact, [name removed] acted like she didn't know that we had an appt. for a tour. We had told [name removed] that we were interested in a 2 bd/2bath apartment but were told that they need 24 hours notice to make those arrangements. I made the appointment for the tour on Tuesday for a Friday tour. The whole experience was poor. We won't be moving to Coronado Villa.

We toured here, and to be honest, we didn't get a good feeling just driving through the parking lot. They had more amenities than some other places we visited, but it did not have the homey, comfortable quality we were looking for. They had a lot of activities, two dining rooms, and washers and dryers in the apartments, but the community seemed darker and the people weren't near as friendly as what we were hoping for.

I've been in touch with [Removed], and he has been incredibly responsive--that is why I gave a high score to a place that isn't even open yet. Deerfield Springs sounds like it would be ideal. I am hoping to get Mom here in October for a visit, and [Removed] is planning to offer presentations at a site TBD on the 26th and 27th since they aren't opening until late 2018. That may be too long of a time frame for us to wait. Mom will be 87 next month, and a lot can happen in a year. But I would like to hear the presentation regardless.

The facility is new so very clean. Not much green space. Very hotel like.

This is a very nice community, but unfortunately they were not fully open yet. It is a very nice community, but their prices were too expensive for my budget overall.

Very nice facilities BUT average food. They advertise that this place is deluxe but the food is basically cafeteria quality described with fancy names. The food needs to be improved to justify the very expensive cost of this place that does not even include assisted living services. It is a very expensive retirement apartment complex with mediocre food quality and extra services you have to order separately.
