“It's a really well-run home, and the people here are very nice, both the residents and the staff. Management always follows up and is very good to me. Housekeeping is very good, and maintenance usually gets repairs done within a day. There are movies every night, I work out pretty much every day, and I feel safe and comfortable here. I would recommend it.”

Richard ColemanJul 2026
★★★★★

“We chose this community because it's smaller and cozier than the big places, with long halls she didn't like. It feels fresh and not like it's trying to be something. The leadership team is really nice and welcoming, with a warm way about them that we both responded to, and they've made her feel seen. She's extremely picky, yet she likes the food. Maintenance has been extremely helpful, responsive and kind. Everyone I've brought says, "Oh, this is really nice." I feel she's 100% safe, and I've already recommended it.”

Elizabeth RubenoffJul 2026

“I'm going on nine years here, and I'm happy. Our local management people are terrific and sharp. The lunches and Sunday buffets are very, very good. Housekeeping is outstanding; any problem gets taken care of and doesn't happen again. Put in a maintenance work order in the morning, and within a couple of hours someone is knocking on your door. It's an impressive, well-maintained building, transportation always gets me to my appointments on time, and I love our apartment with its huge deck. I've brought about three different people in here myself.”

Ed RosenblattMay 2026
★★★★★

“We chose it for the location. Management seems prompt, easygoing and reliable. Housekeeping comes every day and does his laundry, and the place is tidy. The facility is well maintained, and the outside looks well kept and welcoming. The care staff is respectful and attentive to him. He's very happy there so far.”

“I'm a happy person, and I love my apartment. The front desk is exceptional, and the executive director is very caring and attentive and knows me by name. The food has improved a lot. Even at 98 I'm still very active, with exercise classes, Mahjong, Rummikub and coffee and donuts on Saturdays. My cleaning woman is excellent, and my place sparkles. Maintenance gets repairs done in a timely fashion. The building is very impressive, and I feel safe and comfortable.”

“My mother lives at this community and they do a good job with her care. We can't beat the care she is getting. The food is fine, the laundry is okay and her clothes are cleaned and returned so she doesn't run out of laundry, and the building always looks nice. Overall, I sleep well at night knowing she is here.”

“We picked this place for mom because it was recommended by a friend, and now I'd recommend them to others. We're happy with the price, services and accommodations provided. Management is nice and the man in charge is excellent. There is a menu of choices at dining and they keep the residents active with fun activities like having an Elvis impersonator. In general, she feels safe and comfortable, the building is well kept, and the care staff is really helpful there.”

“I really like living here! The people are nice and the staff is great, they are all available whenever I need them!”

Betty VerguraApr 2024
★★★★★

“We chose this community because of its location. We came in on a Monday and we really had to find a place quickly for my dad. With the help of the team, we were able to move my dad in that Friday. I never thought we could move someone that quickly. They were very good about working with me and my sisters and what we needed to get in and especially at a time when we were going through a whole lot. When I go visit you can tell that someone is helping him and assisting him when it is needed and they encourage him to get dressed and the healthcare staff is very respectful to my dad. The food and variety on the menu is good and there are a wonderful selection of activities. Every time I go to visit my dad, I feel like his room is very clean. I don't have to ask when the laundry is going to be done because it is always done and the building is absolutely well maintained. I would definitely recommend this community to others.”

“I'm very happy. The food is good, the servers are good, and they have a lot of activities. You just have to choose what you like and what you want to do.”

“It is a great place to live and I enjoy it. I have been here for almost four years. The management staff are very good at what they do. The quality of the food and the variety on the menu are very good and the service in the dining area is good as well. The activities offered are very good and I am very happy here. We go out to eat once a week with the guys and we have shows that we go to. We go every week to the grocery store too. Plus, I use the housekeeping every week and the housekeeper keeps my apartment very clean and she makes my bed for me. She does everything you can ask for. The maintenance staff are very good as well. If I ever need anything it is taken care of right away or the next day. I try to get people to come here all the time!”

Richard ColemanNov 2023
★★★★★

“My brother and I chose this place for mom because it had good reviews, and we appreciate everything that everyone has been doing. She absolutely loves her apartment and she also has a porch that looks fantastic. Management has been spot on with anything we've had questions about or have needed. There is plenty of food to go around and when she wants to eat in her room, the servers deliver it. There are a lot of activities going on and I like that they're organized and always available to her. The housekeepers go in there and check on her all the time. The care staff is there, they're extremely polite and friendly, and they're smart. She feels safe and comfortable there.”

“We toured this community and thought it was a perfect fit. The management staff were very receptive and the healthcare staff do a great job. In regards to the activities, there is something every day. They are posted and there is a calendar. The housekeeping staff do a very good job and the maintenance is great. It is a very clean building and it always looks great. The maintenance of the apartment is very good as well and it is regularly maintained. I would definitely recommend this community to others.”
