Review for Revel McDowell Mountain

Revel Mcdowell Mountain - we are in one of the little cottages which is just darling. There's a great room that includes the kitchen and the living room. Then there is another bedroom, which we use to say is a multipurpose room , two size bathrooms and a patio that's very spacious for one of these places I have a table with four chairs out there has a little fire in the center. We have two seated chairs with a fake palm next to it and that serves as a third room. The people are the friendliest people I've known in

Great Family Experience

We overall ended up making decision to put my mother-in-law there and she is super excited. She moves [date removed! They have been amazing over there.

I Was A RESIDENT HERE FOR 1 YEAR AND MOVED OUT

HAPPY NOT TO LIVE HERE ANYMORE. The Executive Director is a good man who I respect. The Activities Director is also SUPER! As for the restaurant, it is TERRIBLE. THE SO CALLED MANAGER of the restaurant is a TOTAL [profanity removed] after calling me a JERK! I paid for his salary which he does NOT deserve. Food quality is less than mediocre and he is unwilling to accept people's requests or needs. For this reason, along with the cliques, and handicap people, who receive no support or assistance unless one brings in

When I heard about Revel from a friend, I was excited to take my sister who lives in Scottsdale with me. I am from North Dakota and want to rent for the winter. When we met with [name removed], he said that was possible. We set up a date to tour the facility and have lunch. It was amazing. Everything I would ever need all in one place. The restaurant serves top chef meals too. [name removed] arranged an overnight stay and it allowed me to really check Revel out and visit with guests to get their feedback. Everyone

There is no other choice for Independent Senior Living!

When we decided to look at Independent Senior Living facilities, Revel McDowell Mt. was on our list. After we had our appointment here, there was no reason to see any others - our choice was made! We felt comfortable from the moment we entered the lobby. The staff was amazing - answered all our many questions and made us feel comfortable. The residents were so welcoming - everyone had a smile and a "welcome" for us. We took advantage of the offered "staycation" to get an overnight feel for the facility and that jus

Totally different from all the senior living places I visited

Excellent fitness instructors every day. Food is great. Even my family loves eating here. I'm making friends and learning new things. My apartment is perfect. Absolutely no regrets. I love living here. Far exceeds my expectations.
