Community Reviews
The people there are the nicest group of people that you would ever meet.
reviewed on: 06/19/2015 by AnonymousThe people there are the nicest group of people that you would ever meet. They are very accommodating. They try hard to make you happy. They do their best on looking after you. If I had anything to say that is not my top rating it would be the food. It's not bad, but it could be better. For the independent living the prices are very reasonable. The people are very caring. Everything I have to say about the Mennowood is very good. They are excellent.

reviewed on: 06/02/2015 by AnonymousI think they do a good job of taking care of my father. I just wish they would push liquids on him more and make sure he's getting more hydration. Everything else has been really good. The meals are good and he is eating well. The cleanliness of the facility is excellent. It's always very clean. The staff has been very nice and helpful. I would recommend the Mennowood Retirement community. It's very good.

A Great Place to Live
reviewed on: 07/25/2016 by JulieI moved into Mennowood the first week of June. In the short time that I have been here I have been pleased with all phases of the community. The food is very good. There are always alternatives to choose if you do not want the planned meal. The dining room is very nice with damask table cloth and napkins. The servers are pleasant. They make an effort to get to know you and your preferences. If you request coffee after the meal just once, they will check with you each time to see if you want it again. The staff is friendly and helpful. I was helped carrying in my boxes on moving day and they helped me with some assembly of my furniture. If you need help moving furniture or maintenance assistance, it is just a phone call away. There is no excuse for being lonesome or bored. There are activities all day long, every day. There are small rooms, a living room, sun porch, etc. to sit and visit with other residents. There are outings planned each week with a wide variety of destinations. It has been a very pleasant move.
