All Smiles

Food is excellent, all the staff are professional and friendly, the whole place looks and smells clean. The studio apartment size is sufficient for one person, especially one who doesn't move much. Haven't had much experience with the activities yet. My mom is still adjusting and has yet to participate in any of them. She is often asked by the staff if she would like to join in on things going on.

We loved the facility and our tour was great. Time was taken w/ us to explain everything and answer all of our questions. Excellent experience.

Mom at Residence at Greatwoods

I have not seen my Mom as happy as she has been since living at The Residence at Greatwoods! She was living an isolated life before. She was very hesitant to go to meals and activities at first. The staff worked really hard to help her break out of her shell. She has really turned it around and is very positive every day! I honestly never thought she would ever be happy again! It’s a phenomenal place!! If you have an opportunity to tour it, definitely do so!!

Review for The Residence at Great Woods

So far so good, I guess I would give it a 4.5/5. Very nice place. You get what you pay for. It is pricey but its very nice and clean, mom likes the food, staff are very friendly. Lots of activities. Some small areas that could be improved, such as communication amongst staff

Great place

My father is very happy living at Great Woods. The food is excellent and he loves sitting out in the sun and reading his book. He hasn’t participated much in activities as he is still getting familiar with everything. Overall we have been very happy with Great Woods
