  • They worked within our budget

    We needed to find a place where our loved one fits in and would have everything he needs. Truewood is that place, the staff in the beginning were very communicative without being to pushy or trying to sell us on anything. Everyone who we met with were just very professional and chill. The value for cost is also reasonable.

  • A Great Place to Live, Great Friends, Great Staff

    Being a brand new resident in a unique time, with the lock down taking place a couple weeks after moving in due to the pandemic was handled well. The communication with the family was great. They kept the residents safe. I would highly recommend this community to anyone. I want to live there if the time comes.
