Grace and Dignity

When searching for memory care for our precious mom, Vista Harden Ranch beat them all. From the very personalized first tour, to the at home assessment prior to placing her, Vista showed so much grace and dignity. The live music, holiday events, manicures, card games, karaoke, crafts, meals and kindness from all of the staff are incredible. [names removed] (to name a few) are friendly, gentle, uplifting and made the hardest decision I've ever made much easier. The terminology they use for every day things allows mu

Peace of Mind

My husband and I would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the [name removed], [name removed], [name removed]and all their team members and all caregivers at the assisted living facility! We truly appreciate the kindness, care, and compassion they show every day. Last weekend, my husband had a fall, and the staff contacted me immediately so we could get him to the hospital without delay. During a difficult and worrying moment, their prompt response and support brought us comfort and reassurance. What touch

Needs improvements

I am disappointed in the service. I was very hopeful Communication with family needs improvement. For example I email and NEVER receive a response. They have only one can and if it's broken there are no alternatives. The lack of response when I ask for a copy of the statement etc. I was excited and hopeful I would not recommend

They charge the deceased

VISTA HARDEN RANCH CHARGED MY GRANDMA ALMOST $[removed]k FOR RENT/CARE EXPENSES AFTER SHE DIED. CHECK YOUR DECEASED LOVED ONES BANK ACCOUNTS AND MAKE SURE THEY DIDN'T MAKE THE SAME “MISTAKE”. My grandmother passed away [date removed] and we moved out her stuff on [date removed]. They did not prorate the rent for that last week in March AND charged her for [date removed]. This was brought to my attention recently so on [date removed] I called and emailed [name removed]. She did not get back to me until [date removed

Has room for improvements

Food quality. I was there in December 2025 to see my mom for a week and had meals with her. One evening I ordered the Spanish rice for her and it came to the table completely raw. It looked like they had mixed some uncooked rice with ketchup and called it Spanish rice. I showed it to the server and he sent it back. They never brought any back out that was cooked. Employee honesty. Also when I was there in December 2025, 3 packages of my mother's diapers were stolen. I ordered 2 cases prior to arriving and when I d

Decent facility, needs more qualified staff

The Staff is very friendly. This facility currently does not have a nurse on site but was told they are working on it. The nurse they had quit 2 months ago. This facility is currently, in my opinion and also that of the employees, highly understaffed. There are only 2 people in an 8 hour shift to help 20-25 people. They are running themselves ragged. I've let the director of the facility know this.
