Good Decision
reviewed on: 10/02/2017 by AnonymousI thought I had already made my decision about where to place my mom and then I toured this community and changed my mind we love it here. Mom is doing very good here she is settling in and being taken care of very well. I feel much better knowing she is here. She is eating on a regular schedule which she wasn't before and she likes the food. The staff is amazing here super helpful and very nice. I would recommend this community.

Good impression
reviewed on: 02/23/2017 by AnonymousWe looked at this community during the senior living search for my father. It was very clean and had a good atmosphere. I wasn't able to try the food during the tour. The regular tour person wasn't on staff so the maintenance guy showed me around but he was very nice.
Comfortable care!!
reviewed on: 06/28/2017 by AnonymousI have no complaints about the care that my wife has been receiving since she made the move into this community. The staff are all very friendly and always attentive to her needs at the best of there ability. I love that they have a in house doctor and a great nursing crew so I don't have to take her off campus to appointments. Overall it has been a pleasant experience and I would recommend it to anyone.
