Critical

Friendly staff, but need more cost transparency

Place is very nice and meets requirements of individuals. Only issue is pricing becomes a moving target very quickly. Started at [Amount Removed] per month and within 5 months was pushing close to [Amount Removed] per month. Misunderstanding could have been in my part but things were said to be covered but were not. Example: showering. Said it was covered but was only covered to prompt them to shower, if assistance was needed that was another charge and different levels of assistance required additional cost .

Mom is safe

I’m grateful that my mother feels safe there, and it gives me real peace of mind knowing that she’s well cared for. Whenever we’ve had concerns, the staff has listened and addressed them promptly. It’s clear they put effort into supporting their staff, and I believe that positively impacts the care the residents receive. One area that could use improvement is the activities programming. The entertainment and activities should better reflect the generation of the residents who live there. For example, when I sugges

The feeling of touring this community was completely different from any others I’ve visited; and trust me, we have visited A LOT! From the moment I walked in, it felt warm, welcoming, and full of life rather than institutional. The staff was genuinely friendly, the residents seemed happy and engaged, and the overall atmosphere felt relaxed and positive. There was a sense of connection and care throughout the community, making it stand out in the best way. It didn’t feel like just another senior living community—it

I recently toured Legacy and I was genuinely impressed. The cleanliness stood out right away! Everything from the rooms to the common areas was spotless and well maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, taking the time to answer questions and make us feel comfortable. What impressed me most was the strong family-like atmosphere; residents and staff interacted with such warmth and care. It really felt like a place where people are valued, supported, and encouraged to be as independent as possibl

The community has a warm and friendly atmosphere with inviting common areas and plenty of opportunities for socializing. It’s clear that residents have choices and are able to live life on their own terms, which makes the environment feel empowering rather than restrictive. Overall, it feels like a place where seniors can thrive, maintain their independence, and enjoy a high quality of life. I would highly recommend visiting to see the difference for yourself!

Upon touring Legacy Living the first thought I that came to mind was home. The atmosphere here reminds you of your own home it’s clean,well kept welcoming and just the sort of place that you want your parents or a loved ones to be. The staff is friendly, courteous, and always willing to help their residents no matter what the situation is. The foodat Legacy Living is home cooked food which I’ve eaten many times myself and it’s delicious. My mother lived here for over a year and I never was anxious about her staying
