5 star review!

Homestead of Creston has been such a blessing for our family. The staff are incredibly caring, compassionate, and welcoming. From the moment you walk through the doors, you’re greeted with friendly faces, and it’s clear they genuinely care about the residents. The facility is beautiful, clean, and very well maintained. The residents’ rooms are kept nice, and there are always activities for residents to enjoy. I especially appreciate that they also host events that invite families to participate, making it easy to …

Beautiful facility

It is a beautiful facility. When it comes to the quality of care....it appears to be very good, but I am not there daily to make perfect assessment but have no complaints. For the food, my dad says the chef is very good. I have sat with him at lunch...food appears good. For activities they have bingo, Wii bowling, church, and I know they took those who wanted to to Pella recently. I haven't ever seen a schedule of those so that is the only reason I would give a negative. The residents seem happy enough from those I…

Average at best

Our loved one is not to impressed with the food, but do get to visit whenever we want. We do have to wear masks in the hallways, the staff members have to wear masks but the residents do not. From our understanding everyone there has been vaccinated, and the location is convenient for us so we can visit easily.
