Our family's experience.

I would say a 4-5 on all of them. I think the price is overwhelming, but it is everywhere. The staff and knowing that he is safe and well cared for.

Good Value for Memory Care.

There is a set monthly cost. No "points" system which really drives up the cost. 2nd most important reason is the ability for my loved one to be able to walk in and out the doors and walk around the building in a safe environment whenever they wish. The building is all on ground level!

Overall a nice community and I would definitely recommend it.

The food is good, not much of a variety. I think the price at all of the facilities is outrageous. I have had some issues with some of my billings, but they were resolved after questioning them. I would, recommend this community to others, but be prepared for the cost. My husband is being well cared for, the people that work there in all capacities couldn't be nicer.

Best value for great care and a friendly community

I like the availability of the nurses. I really like that they do not add costs for each little thing my mother needs. They can definitely improve on the food. I understand these are memory care people, but some of them could still enjoy better food. I do not find the new director to be very personable or helpful in questions and concerns that I have. The nurses are, however, personable and very helpful. I'm mostly deal with them. I would recommend this place because it is clean acceptable and especially because of

Love the outdoor space

We love the fact that our mom can walk outside anything around the grounds. The staff here has been very approachable and helpful! We feel very content having mom here.

We've been here over 6 months, and overall very pleased with everything. There could be a few more activities for wheel chair bound, tossing balloon or bean bags toss. The cost is relatively high but overall care is great.
