Community Reviews
Not impressed at all
reviewed on: 02/05/2014 by Loved oneWe toured this facility when we were looking into options for our loved one. We were not impressed at all by this community. It was a nice enough looking place, but the rooms were extremely small, especially the shared rooms. The cost was higher than others we had seen, despite the small size of the accommodations. They were also not flexible with their billing, which would have put us in a difficult position as we waited for word on our loved ones VA funding.
The right choice for me.
reviewed on: 05/14/2020 by AnonymousLocust Grove is a very adequate place. They have different floor plans for the rooms. The food is sufficient. The staff kind. I did check out other properties and Locust Grove was my top choice.
Wonderful place and Wonderful staff
reviewed on: 01/06/2016 by AnonymousI have to say DO NOT LISTEN TO THE BAD REVIEWS. If you did a tour and find a a place that is filthy and smells like urine then why put your loved one into a place like that? Both my mom and grandmother were at Locus Grove. We did a tour with one of the staff members. The place is bright and cheerful and the residence were up and about. And no we were not greeted with the smell of urine. It looked and smelled clean. The rooms were big and reminded me of home. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to help us during such a stressful time. Common sense says tour a facility before you have to bring a loved one to it.

reviewed on: 11/13/2015 by GwendolynFantastic, caring staff. Nothing but helpful, kind, and problem-solving. Only critique is that I've had to leave voice messages on occasion, which was initially disconcerting, but calls have always been returned promptly.
Mom is doing good.
reviewed on: 09/09/2018 by Kathy SMy mom has been at Locust Grove for 6 months and is enjoying the activities and companionship. She has finally accepted this as her "home away from home". The aides are kind and friendly, the med techs and staff great about resolving problems. She is safer, healthier, and happier at Locust Grove than she was living alone in her house.
