She feels that overall the place is very nice and well managed. Sometimes the food is not always the best.

Would recommend

So far Carolina Pines has exceeded all my expectations! The residents are friendly and they look out for each other without infringing on anyone's privacy. The staff is mazing! I cannot say enough good things about them! The ambiance is wonderful. There are numerous daily events to please all, including a movie each evening in an theater. Much to my dismay/delight there is an ice team machine that is available 24/7. Also snacks are available anytime one is needed. The food is healthy and delicious, special dietary

Carolina Pines is great

Everyone from staff and the residents are very friendly and helpful. I love the valet parking. The food is almost always excellent. And when it’s not something I like I can always get something else. I Have made some great friends and kids are welcome too. My granddaughter loves to come and stay a few nights. We are like family and really care about each other! They have many activities I enjoy, great PT and OT staff on site also. I hope I can live here forever. Happy hour is good too. The the area is very good too

We love it here.

We are very happy here. We've been here 6 months and our complaints have been few and minor. The food is very good. It isn't gourmet cuisine, but good food. There is a well equipped gym, a movie theater, a lounge, a snack bar and a soft serve ice cream machine.. The apartments are equipped with full-sized washer, dryer, dish washer, smooth-top range, microwave, and a medium sized refrigerator with ice maker. All the appliances are only 1 year old, a real plus for someone who lived in a place with 2 community washi

From the first hello by the young lady at the front desk ([name removed]), I felt like part of the community. I wasn’t a stranger, my name was in the welcome home sign by the welcome center and that’s exactly how we felt, welcome. Every detail is carefully thought of and the place smells amazing! [name removed] warmth made us feel like we were talking with a long time friend. The managers, were energetic and welcoming also! Knowing that they live on the property gave us some peace of mind. We just started our journ
