  • Our Tour Experience

    Our virtual tour was good. Their building was clean. But it seemed like most of the Alzheimer’s patients were very far gone. So my higher functioning loved one wouldn’t have had enough interaction with people like herself.

  • It's Not What You Think

    They always had something for the residents to eat. If you didn't like what they served they were willing to fix you a grilled cheese or tuna sandwich or something else. They always want you to eat. It is a really nice community, and you would be happy here. The community was good at checking on the residents, and not knowing the staff was checking on the residents.

  • great staff, friendly staff

    The community's population is very elderly, but my loved ones love the staff and they do a great job taking care of our loved one. The food is great and they have activities but we would like to see a bigger variety. I would recommend this community to others
