“The staff are super friendly and bend over backwards to help and accommodate residents, even ones who aren't easy to get along with. They really go above and beyond. Management is easy to talk to, the food is very good, and they offer a very good selection of activities. They keep clothes clean, folded and put away, and the maintenance guy is really good. The staff member who handles transportation is an angel. I've already recommended it to others.”

“From the moment I walked in the door, even before, on the porch, I loved it, and we feel so lucky that we got both my parents in. The director is a very good listener with a great personality. I like that they have choices if you don't like the meal. The activity director is amazing, with so much energy, and her heart is in the right place. My mother loves the caregivers, and so do I, because they're so wonderful with her. The location on the lake is beautiful. I already recommend it.”

He goes to church services and they added activities for his interests. Overall, it feels like a weight was lifted off of us, he is happy, and he is spoken to. The building is beautiful and the cleaning staff do things for him to make life easier. The care staff is kind to him and it's so amazing to see.
