Brandon Wood Retirement Center

Great staff. great location. Everyone is friendly. My mom hadn't even checked in and met over 6 people. They have tea at 3. Great social time. The bus takes them to Walmart and other stores. No stairs. My mom is really happy here

Retirement for me

I moved into Brandon Wood 7 months ago. I have been very happy here. The staff are helpful and friendly. The food is above average for institutional meals. For me the opportunity to not have to cook makes it very worthwhile.

Brandon Wood Retirement Center

The biggest complaint right now or the inconsistency with the meals. Most of the time they are not eatable. Needs some updating, can be very dark and dreary. It's outdated

Retirement at last

It felt homelike and it was more reasonably priced than any others. I physically could not take care of a house and yard and Brandon Wood provides meals and housekeeping

Friendly, very helpful, great meals

There are many activities and outings planed each month. The residents are very friendly especially to the newcomers that move in. The staff make it a point to recognize and address all the residents by their first names. No one is a stranger. The entire building is kept in excellent condition and kept in a very clean condition. Apartments are cleaned weekly and maintenance done with great care. This is a great home for your mom or dad.
