We recently toured the facility with our sales rep [Name Removed], who was very knowledgeable and helpful. The facility was very clean and set up well. Residents and staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We were looking for an Independent Living apartment that had a full kitchen and a washer dryer in the apartment. Unfortunately, their apartments do not. Overall, I was very impressed with the dining options, the fact we would’ve been able to bring out 2 cats, the amount of activities available and the welc

Recommend The Residence for your loved one.

The facility is beautiful, and the staff is caring. Most of the activities and good for our memory deficient loved one, but a few activities can feel a little halfway. We feel extremely confident about her safety and the quality of care she is getting.

Review for The Residence at Vinnin Square

The Residence has welcomed [name removed] to their facility and provided him with a positive and caring experience. The physical space is very open and welcoming. They provided him with a lovely apartment in Assisted Living with Level 2 additional care that was furnished. His apartment is always kept clean and clothes are washed weekly. The entire facility is spotless and inviting. Fellow residents invite [name removed] to eat with him and he has made some friends which did not happen at his previous facility. Nurs

The 3 C's of the Residences at Vinnin Square- Caring, Community and Commitment

Well I know that when I was touring for my mother another resident said to me "if I had one word to describe this place it would be caring! They are about everyone and everything" and he was 100 percent right. We are so thrilled with the way my mom has integrated into the Vinnin Residences. Everyone there is nothing short of sensational

It’s ok

It's still not exactly what we had hoped for. Food isn’t great, hardly any activities.
