Mom is Thriving Again!

They worked with my mom to get her in there and she honestly has never been happier. Its more than a place to live, its a community that looks after each other. Mom is in good hands. She is in a 1 br and doesn't even have to change her own light bulbs. Amazing staff.

The facility is warm, caring with many activities and community opportunities. Mom loves living here and the people who live there with her. She enjoys the services, chair exercise, fellowship, hair services, dinner meals and much more.

A great place for singles or married people. A lively place for all!

She loves it! There are lots of activities, safe doors, a bus to take them shopping, a washer and dryer in all apartments. Friendly staff, storage units, also 10 free meals a month, and monthly Birthday parties. Probably more things I haven't thought about too. Problem is there are waiting lists from last year for both one and two bedroom apartments.

Definitely recommended

Mom loves all the staff, they are very friendly and helpful. The maintenance guys are helpful and patient with answering questions. The meals have not been very good, so they are searching for a new cook. We would definitely recommend the facility to others.
