Markham House Assisted Living

Very helpful and very attentive. Mom decided on a regular studio because it was on the main floor and she wouldn't have to use elevator. They have a studio plus that's a little larger and a 1 bedroom. Only thing I would like to have them do is have a few more menu items but understand they only have 50+ living there so don't really want to waste food.

Staff were great! My only complaint is the cleaning team was not consistent. My father loved the food.

Great Facility!

Markham has been a blessing for our family. From the moment we toured the facility, we were impressed by how clean, bright, and inviting it is. The caregivers genuinely care about the residents and always have a smile on their faces. My brother loves the social activities and has made so many friends. It's a relief to know they are happy and well-cared for.
