Positive

Clean, friendly, one floor, decient size living spaces, and comfortable common areas. There is sufficient space to park one's car. May have pets which is a plus. Overall, it is a place that I would consider when I decide to look for a permament facility in which I would live for independent or assisted living.

Staff was very nice. Building was in poor shape. It needs repair. Damaged drywall and dated interior. I didn’t see the food but review the menu and the dinner choices looked good on paper. Outside landscaping had dead grass and foliage. The monthly pricing is higher than other properties.

Southern Life of Lake Placid

They need to have more maintenance, especially out side, and more training for the wellness aides ,I still have my dad there so I am there every day. sometimes I'm hauled in the administration office, for things I think are wrong. But that's ok. My mom was there in memory care for [date removed] until see passed. my dad was able to be with her every day which was great. He could also eat with her if he wanted. I think this place is better than some, it is smaller and more personable and homey. They know everyone's
