PositiveExcellent facility and we received a great tour. We are very impressed with your facility. Unfortunately, my parents are not seeking any help from me in relocating them to an independent care facility.

Positivemy experience
I would rate a 5 for all except care. I don't require any care. But they do provide exercise classes that fairly well attended. I do enjoy living here. Yes, I would recommend The Rio Grande community to other families.

PositiveWhat a beautiful facility! I was very impressed with all the amenities and the overall layout and cleanliness. The staff was friendly and caring, and I would feel comfortable having my Mom there. Unfortunately, we now need a facility that can convert to Assisted Living from Indepedent Living as Mom's needs are changing. If she was more independent, I would love for her to stay there. I'm giving a special shoutout to[name removed], the manager who met us and gave us the tour. Wow, she is incredible! Kudos to her!
★★★★★
PositiveBright and welcoming
What most stood out to me about the facility was how bright and clean everything was. There was plenty of light around, beautiful views, and updated, well-kept facilities. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the lunch that we got to sit down to on the first day was with a very friendly resident and helpful staff, and it was a delicious meal.
