Our experience

5 for all eight of the categories listed above, sorry I got sidetracked. The Atria is very competent in the care of my mother. The staff are very friendly and her apartment is beautiful with a balcony overlooking the yard.

Wonderful, kind, knowledgeable staff. Beautiful grounds. Building is dated but very livable. They do have some limitations in the care they are able to support which ultimately was the deciding factor for me in not being able to chose Atria Willow Glen for my mom.

Atria Williw Glen is a beautiful campus for senior living. I was focused on memory care for my mom. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, transparent and made us feel welcome. The memory care is an older building and could use some renovation but it is well cared for. The grounds are gorgeous and peaceful.

We visited Atria at Canyon Creek. Everything was very well maintained., their menu was great. We will be going back for dinner on [date removed]. Our only concern was the amount of walking to get to the dining room from building 3.

Exceeded expectations

The administrative staff is awesome as is the caregiving staff. Mom is comfortable there, that is of the upmost importance to me. They encourage family to visit and are welcoming to all visitors. The facility is clean and Mom's room is bright. A big large sliding glass door that leads to a small little balcony makes the room a great place to be.
