They don't have enough activities. I have a single apt. They have excellent food.

PositiveHidden Gem
I had been looking for a place for my parents for a few years. We needed an affordable, welcoming, clean, spacious place they could call home. When I walked in the very first time for a tour I felt so elated! I knew Bridges was it! The place has so many amenities. The staff are all so nice and so dedicated. All the people that call Bridges home seem so happy. It’s truly a wonderful community. My parents are still adjusting to their new stage of life, but they are very happy there and so much safer.

PositiveNew home for 95 year old mom. Friendly and Kind Staff
5 for all. A special note: the rent seems high at first glance, but it includes heating/cooling, laundry, phone and more. Staff is very friendly. Bathrooms are large. Tenants wear notifier buttons which are checked regularly.
★★★★★
PositiveI loved everything about Bridges except its location. If you are from the area you know that Washington Street is highway 218. I’m not. Washington is one way in front of the building. The building is on a hill and the parking lot is on different levels. I’m an anxious driver in a new place. You can’t hear the traffic, the place is lovely, the staff and residents were friendly. If the location doesn’t bother you, you will probably love Bridges.

PositiveLiving great
My dad loves living at the bridges. He enjoys the residents, staff, and food. It has been a perfect fit for him. He has taken part in a few of the activities which has been a very positive experience for him.
