The management is non communicative. Been a resident for 5 months and still waiting for a resident meeting or updates of any kind. Never received any sort of safety meeting or fire alarm notifications. Do not recommend this place if you want to be informed.

The rooms feel like they are home to me. The staff are very friendly and helpful with great personalities. I have lived here for seven years and I still think it is the best place to live. The location is perfect.

My mother-in-law is now living at Lakewood Estates. Everyone is open and friendly. Her room is remodeled, and it's very open and airy, very pretty. I have seen the dining area and it's very clean and very classy. They have a craft room, a workout room, and a movie room. They went on a gambling outing in a bus to Central City. There's a gym and a salon.

My spouse will move into Lakewood Estates. This one fit what we were looking for. I saw the amenities, multiple apartments, and had several apartments to look at, to choose one that fit our budget and our aesthetic. It was close to where I'm working. So when I transitioned there myself in the next few years or sooner, then it's already there. The rooms are beautiful. They've been furnished. It's clean. It smells good, like a normal apartment complex would. It doesn't smell like an old folks home or nursing home. They have a pool table, a piano, and you have your own individual mailboxes, which I really liked for him. Besides having the dining room that looks like a cafeteria setting, like somewhere in the South cafeteria style, they have a workout room, they have elevators, and they have a parking garage for your vehicle. My husband still drives, so that was a big thing for him. They have an outside area, because we have one little dog that's under 50 pounds, so that we can take her for a walk. That was a big thing. I haven't seen the menu. I saw the dining area and everyone seemed to be really enjoying it when I was there at lunch. They have several gardens. They have a courtyard where you can sit, and it's shaded, it's mostly mature trees as well. And it's an area that you can walk outside of the complex and not worry about getting run over.

Lakewood Estates was really nice. It's kind of old, but I liked the people a lot. The only thing I don't like is they don't have kitchens, but the rooms were nice. They seemed to have quite a bit of activities. They have a community van that they use to go to different places around town and do different things, which I thought was really nice. They would take you to the grocery stores or different places. I got the chance to talk to the driver, and he seemed like a really nice guy. I was there on a Saturday morning, and they had donuts and coffee for all of the people in the community. You can come in, visit, sit down, and talk. I thought that was an interesting deal. They had different things set up for different kinds, and we had lunch. They were very, very nice folks. They also had a salon and the lady that runs it had been there for years. She seemed really nice. They have a workout room upstairs, a library, and a little bit of everything. They're in a neighborhood, which is kind of nice. It's real quiet there. It's not like being in a noisy downtown location.

I liked Lakewood Estates, they're just farther away. The staff was professional, very knowledgeable, helpful, and caring. They have laundry facilities, rooms for doing activities and for special gatherings, a library, very nice amenities, and lots of activities. They offer transportation to anywhere within a 15-mile radius, for doctor's appointments, grocery stores, and things like that. There

I have chosen Lakewood Estates. It was very nice. I felt very comfortable in the place. The staff was very, very friendly. They seemed knowledgeable. The room is a one-bedroom apartment. It's very nice and roomy. They have a kitchenette, but this particular room doesn't have a balcony. They have different styles of room layouts. They have a dining room, they have a chef, they have a small workout room, they have exercise classes, and they have a little area down their lobby where there's a fireplace and a piano. They have recitals like that.

Lakewood Estates was good, but the rooms were small. They had studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments. The staff was a five out of five.

My mom was very hesitant to move into independent living but she finally admitted that she was very lonely living at home by herself. The move has been good, she is finally eating three meals a day and is getting involved in a few activities. That's a work in progress. She loves the staff and her apartment that is just the right size for her. Very positive experience.

The location was surprisingly quiet but close to Belmar and grocery stores. The people that lived there all seemed very happy, friendly and warm to each other. The staff was very helpful, the salesgirl was patient with us and made us feel at home right away as did the activities girl. My father is very excited about moving in with them.

Lakewood Estates and its staff are good. I am living in a nice apartment. My wife went to a chair exercise program, but she didn't like it. It's not perfect, but it has been good. The food is better than adequate.

My mother is at Lakewood Estates. I can’t say anything negative at all. She loves her apartment. The people there are so very nice and very friendly. The only thing that she is disappointed about is there aren't many crafts and she likes to do crafts, but other than that, she doesn't have complaints. The dining area is very nice and very clean. Everything is always ready when they say it’s going to be ready, and she has not complained one bit about the food.

Lakewood Estates was very nice. The rooms were very small, much like a hotel room. The staff was very friendly.

We visited Lakewood Estates for my father. The people were friendly, and I enjoyed touring the place. The one thing that was a drawback was that they didn’t have full kitchens. There was a small refrigerator and a microwave, but there was no cooking option.The staff was very friendly and answered all of our questions. They did everything they could to accommodate us and to offer a good option for my father. The rooms were clean, and size-wise, they were good. The patios and location were nice.

I visited Lakewood Estates. It was wonderful. The girl that took us around was very sweet and thorough. She showed us everything and told us all about it. They were very sweet and nice people. Their rooms were beautiful. The ones that were empty, they're fixing up. It was very nice. I would definitely live there if I was more independent. They have exercise class and dancing. The facility was clean, but there was a cigarette smell to the hallways. The rooms smelled great though. I like how clean and pretty it was.

The staff is friendly, and the residents seem happy at Lakewood Estates. It is comfortable. They have numerous exercise classes, beanbag baseball, card games, and Wii bowling. The food is OK. It is in a residential area. There is a mall and a medical facility nearby.

Lakewood Estates was very helpful, and we found it to be very nice. It is very nice, but it is just for independent living. We are interested in a continuum of care from independent to nursing care, and we wanted to find a place that offers all the services. It is very fine, and we thought it was excellent. Everything is excellent, so we gave it a high rating. The room is OK, but it did not have a kitchen facility, and we want that. They have excellent food services, but there is only room for a microwave and a coffee maker in the kitchen. It is a lovely place, but we are not ready for anything right now.

What I really like about Lakewood Estates community is it's really close. I'm in a scooter, in an electric wheelchair. This is close to little shopping. I could go to Walmart, and I could go up the street with little hobby shop. It's beautiful, charming, but it was completely residential. It was pretty comfortable. They were very friendly. I thought the rooms were wonderful. I think it didn't have stove, and they just had a small refrigerator. I kind of wanted a little bit more. I don't cook very much at all, but I do want that option. They had card games and bingo. I thought their clientele were a teeny bit older. They just seemed like they were quieter, very serene, and calm. I like the area. It's really nice.

My mother is comfortable at Lakewood Estate. She just likes the atmosphere, they have a lot to do. It's close to the church and to her hospital or home service agency. She's very happy with everything.

Lakewood Estates is very close. It's only about 7 miles from us, so we can get over there in a hurry. The staff is very good, they got nice room, and the food is good. It's a pretty nice place.
