The staff was very helpful to provide what we needed for a relative. The facility is all you could wish for. We were looking for independent living and found the apartment offered, spacious, clean and everything you could need.

VERY friendly & helpful staff! Good food service.

What I like the most about the community is the access to outside areas seems to be somewhat restricted (tables placed in front of access points, etc). Open architecture or the public areas makes for a lack of quiet, relaxing areas.

Independent Living at Discovery Village

For two years, I was at an assisted living facility here and did not need the extra care that comes with it. After that time, I decided to move to an independent living facility and visited a number of possible locations. Discovery Village is the newest and most impressive, although their assisted living / memory care unit is a separate building and less impressive. I decided to come here and it has been fine - apartment is pleasant, I have a balcony ( very important ) and the food is good - also hours of dining ar

Great experience

5 for overall experience, cleanliness and friendliness. It is an independent care so no real nursing but have in house doctors who visits and can get blood drawn etc. from your own apartment. Food is very good. Menu changes every 6 weeks or so. Lots of activities and great workout facility. Bedrooms and bathrooms are great size. Kitchen is pretty good size with a big pantry. Living space is tight. Everything is updated since it is only a few years old. Beautiful outdoor pool with cabanas and grills to use.
