Experience is different than the sales pitch

Over the past few weeks there has been a lot of staff turnover especially in the kitchen. I recently returned from a 12 day vacation to discover my apartment had not been cleaned for 3 weeks. It's supposed to be cleaned every week. I knew it wasn't cleaned because the garbage had not been emptied from when I left and the apartment smelled bad from rotting food in the trash cans. Also the food quality and availability have diminished. Portions have gotten much smaller and and not as appetizing. Servers are often out

Hidden Lakes , not so hidden treasure!

My experiences are positive on all those things! They positively pamper us and spoil us in the dining room, the food is pretty good for the most part, the rooms are pretty standard size. From what I can tell comparable to the other studios , I have seen another places - I'm in a studio apartment, the staff has been super from the administration right down to the dining room. Staff cooks and housekeepers. They have activities 7 days a week. And there's so much variety! Lots of fun and excellence staff for activities

Beautiful lake but disappointing food and lack of activities

The lake is really nice, but they can see that. The staff were also nice, but they didn't tell me that they had started to take something like twice as much out of my bank account than I expected. Maybe more than twice. And they were probably justified in doing so, but the guy who had sold me on the place was suddenly no longer there, so there was nobody to talk to about it. I suppose other people won't have these problems. There was plenty of food, but it was not at all appetizing. I have visited at other places,

Hidden Lakes

They worked with us to ensure that the timing for our move was convenient. One of the administrators called me to report that he was concerned about my mother's adjustment. I appreciated that care. A driving factor for my mom choosing this place was the promise of transportation. Their bus was not running on a day that my mom had scheduled a ride and they didn't tell her in advance, so that was disappointing. They were very responsive to making a few post-move fixes to her apartment that were overlooked before she
