Great Tour!
reviewed on: 09/19/2016 by AnonymousWe enjoyed the tour of the community New Forest Estates. The staff were very helpful and addressed all of our questions knowledgeably. The community was well maintained and clean throughout. The tour was a great experience!
So far it's going pretty good.
reviewed on: 11/11/2014 by AnonymousSo far it's going pretty good. It's clean, but they have a lot of construction going on right now. The staff is very pleasant and very helpful. They have certain windows of time for meals, by the end of that window, the food will be a little cold. There is always something to do. I am really happy with it.
We like it. It's good so far.

Honor and Obey Parents
reviewed on: 02/03/2016 by Aronette BaconWe are all commanded to honor and obey our parents. This commandment is the first commandment in the bible with a promise so I know that it is a really important commandment and I have been looking forward to the opportunity to honor my mother by ensuring that she is well taken care of as she approaches her glorious years as a senior citizen. New Forest Estates is a great place and an AWESOME resource for my mother to enjoy everyday living. When my mother and I were searching for a senior living community, we visited New Forest and instantly felt at home. We didn't have to wait for anyone to assist us. Randy gave us a tour and again we felt at home. We were really impressed because Randy knew every resident by first and last name. After the tour, Randy and Michael sat down with us to get to know us. They found out that my mother loved chocolate ice cream and offered her a bowl. When we left, we were impressed. When we got back home we couldn't stop thinking about our experience at New Forest. We loved our experience so much that we went back the next day because we were convinced that we found my mom's new home. She signed a lease and moved in and has been pleased every day. I have honored my mom by ensuring that she is enjoying every day life.
