Review for The York House

My dad haven't utilized any of the activities or dining experience. But he's enjoying his apartment. Lobby area is clean. Communication of what is happening in the building. The staff is helpful. I would recommend them to others who are searching for a community.

Lovely 55+ Community

Great community ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? We're afforded many blessings with food giveaways 3 times a week. The activities coordinator, [name remmoved], plans many activities monthly within The York House ?? and shopping ?? trips, plus that take us out of the building. The staff and residents are friendly, welcoming, caring, and helpful.
