My mom moved into Covenant Woods. My mom said the experience was very good. The people are really nice. I felt that they had a kind of close-knit group. They made a lot of friends there. The people said the food was good, and I think my mom liked the food. Even though it's independent living, they have a life alert and a button that they push in the morning to make sure that they're OK. The facility is clean and nice. They have Bible studies, church, dogs to pet that come in, bingo, swimming, and exercise.

We toured Covenant Woods. It was nice. The lady took me into the two-bedroom and it was roomy, it had a balcony. They also had an elevator. They had a pool and they did different activities at different times. If you wanted your family to come out, maybe for a little birthday or get-together, there is a room for it. The staff was nice and patient. When I told her about the information of my income, she didn't look down on me or cut the interview. She still took me to the place, and she still explained everything to me in detail. She told me about the kitchen because I have to keep up a different diet; a no salt, no season kind of diet. She said that I had to let them know what I could and what I couldn't eat. They have a library in there. They also participate in parades and they have a van. They go to different places and the staff said they do get out of the building and they participate in a lot of stuff like go shopping. It sounds good, but it was just out of my range.

We chose Covenant Woods for my uncle and aunt. The reason we chose it was because I know some people who have family there, and I've had family there in the past. It's been very good, and they've been very accommodating. They're in independent-plus. The staff is very helpful and very understanding. They have a calendar of activities.

We visited Covenant Woods for my mother, and it was actually a nice place. We saw the independent living section. They were very accommodating. We saw a one-bedroom, one-bath, kitchen, dining room combination, with a little patio. It was actually not bad at all. They offer bus services to different places, and shopping. I thought the staff was very good. We ate a complimentary lunch. Everything was quite nice, the food was good, and they had their own chef on staff. They have a regular menu, but they can fix the menu for people that need a different type of food, and so they're very accommodating. The facility was excellent, very clean, and had a very nice setting.

We found Covenant Woods for my mother-in-law. The community as a whole was a good fit for us, and it was in our price range. The staff has been fabulous. They provide a lot of different activities. The staff is friendly, and they care, all the way down to the maintenance. Were very happy with our decision.

Covenant Woods is a very large community. We have a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment. The good part is I don't have to do any cooking because all of the meals are provided, though I have a hard time getting used to an a hour and a half each meal. It takes a long time because you have to get down there and get a table, and then you wait, they bring one thing, wait, and then you finally finish your meal. If you do that three times a day, it eats up all the hours. It's pretty decent for what it is. The staff is very good, and they have a bus that's handicap-accessible. They came right up to our house the day we moved and picked my wife up. I didn't have to load her into a car, so that was good. They do the same thing for doctors' visits, so it's very convenient. We exercise twice a week and have bingo and different groups that come in for entertainment, like square dancers and bands. During the Christmas holidays they have a lot of choirs who came in. They have something going about every day that usually lasts from half an hour to an hour. They have a beauty and barber shop here that's pretty convenient.

Covenant Woods was the first place we moved our mom. They tried to make it as easy as possible, but it was hard on Mom to move out of her house. The thing that made it a little bit better was one her friends is also in the facility, and they managed to get Mom into a room two doors down from her long-time friend. From where my family lives, it was the most convenient place. It's an older place, but they were remodeling it right when we were leaving. It was nice. They had activities. They expected you to be more independent, so they would not let Mom come back after she was released from rehab because she was not completely mobile and needed more nursing care. However, if someone could take care of themselves, it was a good place to be. It was not a huge variety, but the food was good and Mom liked it.

Covenant Woods is the best place in Columbus that we found. The place is super; I would recommend it to anybody. It has a cafeteria that I ate in, and the food is excellent. Everything is 100% great. I don't have any complaints about anything.

Covenant Woods is nice. It is a really good place. My aunt is there now. It is very easy to live in. She seems to like it. It is reasonable. The facility is very spacious. It is in a good location. Many of the residents can come and go, so there is a lot of freedom. My aunt has a bedroom and a living room. They have all kinds of stuff. They have movie theater. It is really nice.

Covenant Woods was great, and they were very positive. They have four levels of care and lots of activities, and we also like the way it was presented. I would absolutely recommend them. The apartments were very home-like, spacious, and warm. The food was excellent, and the staff was beyond belief -- really good.

We came across Covenant Woods for my mother-in-law because it's a local facility that was rated 5 stars. This is a very nice place, well laid out, well located, and nicely decorated. The grounds are more spacious too. If you are not capable of taking care of yourself, they have a wing that you can move into. They have large and small units. The bedrooms are very large, and I guess when you get to that age, you spend more time in the bedroom. The relationship of the staff and the residents seemed a little more strained. But it's kind of hard because now we are taking about personality. There seemed to be less intimacy, more businesslike attitudes. The dining room is fine.

Covenant Woods is a good facility. It's just that mom needed a little bit more care than they were able to give her. It's for people that were more independent. It's a very large facility. I think they need to identify their hallways.

The staff are very helpful, the amenities and the grounds give off the impression of a 5 star vacation resort, not an assisted living community. The people are always helpful, there is 24 hour security with access control gate. They even plan weekly events and monthly resident gatherings to keep everyone social and limit the feelings of isolation and abandonment issues sometimes associated with moving away from your home and loved ones and into an assisted living facility or nursing home.The assisted living facility is very expensive, I find it would be rather difficult for those living on a fixed income to be able to comfortably afford the place. My husband and I do help her with the monthly fees. One thing that is great is that the utilities are covered. She has the privacy of living in a separate apartment home, but the security of knowing that help is close by if she should ever need it.
