My family was looking for a community for my FIL. We reached out to A Place for Mom and spoke to [removed name]. She was very helpful, we able to connect with Solstice for a tour with my husband and FIL at very short notice. Everything worked out, and my FIL will be moving in next month. Thank you [removed name] for all your help.

Elegant, Full Lifestyle

When my duo partner and I entertain at Solstice Senior Living at Guilford, we notice how fully the residents participate and how happy the residents are there, both before the show, and afterwards. The residents have so many kind, caring staff, and there is a wide range of high quality activity choices in which to immerse themselves. The residents themselves reach out and help each other, and the camaraderie is outstanding. The environment is pristine, elegant, well appointed, and provides the kind of home environm

Lovely place

I recently visited Solstice and was so impressed with the facility. It is clean, bright, and welcoming. The residents were interacting in small groups and there were many activities posted. One of my relatives lives there and she is super happy with the place and talked about how much she loves it! If you are looking for a new place to call home, this would be a place to explore!

My Mom LOVES Solstice!

From the tour, through the move in, and this first month of the experience my mother has felt so welcome and so comfortable. After 95 years of working hard with the daily toil of cooking and cleaning and worrying about maintenance issues she is finally “living like a queen” as she deserves. She has enjoyed meeting new people and making friends with staff and other residents. She loves maintaining her cherished independence. She also loves the food! Solstice lives up its name “the end of one season and the beginning

Review for Solstice Senior Living at Guilford

Interior access to all events. Ample parking. Emergency response by Guilford Fire and Police is extraordinary. Maid services are reliable. Same for maintenance and transportation. Staff tries hard to please.
