Facility was nice, and would be considered. Just inthe research phase at this point. The staff and residents were all friendly and helpful. They are what led to such a high overall experience.

I was treated very good and the director answered all my questions and concerns. I was also introduced to some of the residents, which I thought was very respectful. Upon returning home I decided to apply for residency at the Timber's base on my visit and tour, and now I'm looking forward to moving in when a apartment becomes available. Many thanks to the director ([name removed] and her staff)who introduced themselves to me and my daugther.

Best thing ever!

The staff are friendly and helpful. It's been the best experience in transitioning for this next chapter in my life! It's a perfect size - I have a full kitchen and in apartment laundry. There is a library, church service and many group activities.

Review for The Timbers

I am very pleased with my apartment. I would have liked a little more storage. The staff is very welcoming and continues to be helpful and very pleasant to work with. There is a variety of activities so one could be busy if you so choose.
