My dad moved to Manor Lake Ellijay. It is a bit pricey. The facility is very clean, very well run, and has a beautiful area setting. The food is excellent.

About Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care Ellijay in Ellijay, Georgia
If you’re worried about a senior parent, you’ll find relief at Manor Lake Ellijay. Care at Manor Lake Ellijay is more than just meals and medications. It includes serving the Body, Mind and Spirit of a senior – because care is physical, emotional, and transcendent.
It begins with an Individualized Care Plan based on need, and continues with a building that’s comfortable and easy for a senior to learn and navigate. The care staff is directed by an LPN who makes sure your loved one receives appropriate and gentle care in a fun environment. We hope you’re excited about having a senior care community in Ellijay focused on the health and well-being of your loved one.
Assisted Living
Assisted Living is perfect for seniors who are mostly independent, yet need help managing medications and meals. But there’s much more to Assisted Living than that.
At Manor Lake Ellijay, housekeeping, laundry, and activities are services seniors love. Hot and delicious meals are served three times a day and snacks are available all day.
Caregivers are on duty 24-hours a day, plus the LPN is full-time. Our primary tasks are to carefully manage medications, provide Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) when needed, and to become trusted friends of your loved one and your family.
Memory Care
Perhaps the hardest reality of aging for some seniors and their families is memory loss. There is no training to prepare you to care for a person with cognitive challenges, and there comes a time when love isn’t enough. Manor Lake Ellijay is here for you when it’s that time.
Whether brought on by Dementia or Alzheimer’s, these residents require the special care, understanding and skills of Manor Lake caregivers. They are sensitive to a senior’s moods and know how to interact with and redirect an agitated resident.
Just as in Assisted Living, we provide medication management, housekeeping, laundry, and meals. In addition, there are other measures we take for keeping residents safe and calm. To begin with, access to this area of the community is restricted exclusively to families, visitors, and staff. This prevents disruption and stops residents from wandering out into an unsafe world.
We have a beautiful garden area just for Memory Care residents, so sunshine and fresh air is a few steps away.
Every resident wears a call pendant, so at the push of a button, a familiar face is there to help. A pull chord call system is also in each room.
When you are searching for the right place for your loved one, our team is available to help guide you through this difficult process and answer any questions that may arise.
Accommodations
Manor Lake Ellijay is a comfortable and easy community for seniors to learn and navigate. Because we’re a single-story building, there are no elevators to wait on or confusing hallways. Just one simple level with centrally located common areas.
Inside, the community projects a warm lodge-like feel with a stunning central fireplace in the dining room. The building embraces a central courtyard filled with professionally tended gardens seniors can enjoy as they walk the meandering walkways.
The exterior doors are secured at night allowing access to staff and families with their personal codes. Residents easily unlock their room doors with electronic (RFID) bracelets or fobs and an electronic record is kept of each person accessing the room.

We toured Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care Ellijay and my dad liked it. The place was very nice. The dining area was nice looking and it looked comfortable. We got to see the menu for the week, and there were a lot of choices. My dad saw a lot of food that he liked. They told him about breakfast and he was excited about that. The rooms were large and spacious, with plenty of storage. The closet was a good size. We saw the activities area and they had a lot of activities planned. We spoke with one of the residents and he was very happy there.

My mom moved into Manor Lake Ellijay. The people are very friendly and helpful. It's just overall good experience. It's a newer facility. No one had been in the room before, so it's like a new house to her. The staff's very helpful, and the management is very helpful. We visited three different ones. For the money, it was the best facility out there.

Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care Ellijay was clean, and the people were friendly. I can't think of anything bad about it. I met three staff members and they were friendly and any questions I had, they explained. Everything they provide looked good, clean,and well kept. They work with the residents in the community rooms.

The interim executive director was rude to me on the phone, interrupted me repeatedly. She said their marketing director would get back with me by phone. The Marketing Director did not. I visited the facility in person anyway. The marketing director told me she’d send me the actual financial estimate - never did. In fact, never heard a word back from them. Did not feel homey although it was a lovely and new facility. The views are breathtaking. The rooms were a little small but not bad. The suites are nicely set up. Everything was sterile clean since it’s still so new. I chose another facility for my friend.

I just got my mom settled in at Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care Ellijay. It's the best. It's fantastic. She loves it. We just rented a cottage, because we're moving her stuff in slowly because we live locally, so she's been paying rent there but she hasn't officially moved into her room yet. They don't have any activities because of COVID, but they have a clubhouse, a fire pit, a raised bed garden boxes, and garages.

This place is horrible. Short staffed and the management doesn’t know what they are doing. My Dad has early onset dementia and had trouble swallowing his medications for 2 weeks. I was never notified as his legal guardian UNTIL he was assaulted by an ambulance driver at this facility, and they told me he had to go in to the ER to be evaluated “for his injuries.” They then told the ER (not me) that he couldn’t come back to the facility, leaving him no where to go. They demanded that he be admitted to a psych facility for “medication management” or they wouldn’t take him back. He is at the psych facility now and has had no issues at all because he is GETTING his medication. He is actually on less medication than he was at the memory care. All they had to do was crush up his meds and mix them in pudding. They tried to make it seem like he was not taking meds on purpose. He doesn’t even have the cognitive ability to think about doing that. If they can’t provide such a simple modification for dementia patients, or recognize the need to do so then they do not need to be open. That is a very basic care need. If this goes on imagine what else goes on there. Don’t put your loved ones here.

We liked Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care. It's just that this time we're not interested in moving. We like the way it was set up, and that it's located right there in Ellijay. The places that we were looking at was a 1-story. They were basically separated, far away from the dependent care area. The people were great and everything was good. In terms of the layout of the living quarters, everything was a nice size. They have great bathrooms. There were two bathrooms: one in the master bedroom and one in the other bedroom, which made it pretty nice. The only thing we ran into that we might have a problem with would be some storage space. We would be connected to the dining area. It would be one meal a day that would be delivered to our place that we would live. The whole place is brand new and it looked great and the people were fine.

My father is at Manor Lake in East Ellijay. It's brand new, so everything has been great. He was at the ribbon cutting -- he is the very first resident. So far, it's been very good. The staff is pretty good. This is a learning process for me, and they have been pretty good. The food has been excellent. The communication is fine. They keep me updated on my dad and the COVID testing that's going on.
