Awesome facility and staff are amazing. My mom is so happy here. She loves that she doesn’t have to cook anymore. She enjoys three fantastic meals a day. She enjoys all the activities and making new friends. It’s like cruise ship on land! There is always something fun to do. Whealdon Estates was the perfect choice for her new home.

I visited Whealdon Estates by Barclay House. It was okay, but I didn't particularly care for their set-up as far as the rooms and whatnot. And my aunt wasn't excited about it. The biggest problem with that was they didn't have anything on the ground floor. The staff showed us upstairs and showed us a studio apartment, which wasn't what we were looking for. The staff was very nice though. They were very pleasant. The layout was nice. Some of the tenants were outside and they were very friendly.

I toured Whealdon Estates. It was an older facility, but that's not a bad thing, that shows character, and it shows that it must be good to last all this time. The staff was extremely cordial, and helpful. I got to sit down with the residents at lunchtime. And that impressed me that I got to sit with the residents and talk with them. All of the residents were very satisfied and very happy, and I enjoyed my visit with them because I got to interact with the residents. The rooms were a bit smaller than the other place, but it still was nice. It had a built-in refrigerator and microwave in the room. They had many things. They had a movie theater area with movies, and what impressed me was they had a chapel. Different religions come in. I loved the staff, we just joked and laughed, and had a wonderful time.

When I moved in a little over eight years ago, I had a chip on my shoulder. I didn't like it for about the first year, but gradually I came to see it as home. The residents & staff now feel like family & I also learned patience. I enjoy living here.

Whealdon Estates was friendly and family-oriented. The person who gave me the tour was knowledgeable and pleasant. The apartments were clean but were smaller, then they have movies, card games, a little exercise place, a game room, and a movie room. It's just a little bit older, but it's adequate.

I was very impressed with the facilities at Whealdon Estates. We spoke to some of the residents there and all of them were very, very happy and highly recommended the place. That was very good to hear. The staff was very knowledgeable. They showed us the different options as far as the rooms go. They were very helpful and they answered all of our questions. It's an independent living community. The apartments were very nice, they were laid out well. They had, I think, 3 different options. They had a studio, 1-bedroom, and a 2-bedroom. Some have patios and balconies and they were very nice. It was an older community. It's been there for years and years so it was nice but you could tell it's aged.

Whealdon Estates was nice, spacious, and clean. They also have caring staff members. They have a place where they can do the laundry, an entertainment center, and a nice open dining hall. They didn't go into detail about activities but they mainly just have bingo and movie nights, things like that. I don't know how big the rooms were but they were pretty nice sizes. It was comparable to most apartments as far as 1-bedroom apartments. That's what we were looking at and it was nice.

Whealdon Estates was very nice. Their activities were limited because of COVID, but they said that they had plans for upcoming activities after all this is finished.

Whealdon Estates was very nice. The people were very cordial and very helpful. I think I'm going to enjoy it there. They spent almost an hour with me, and they showed me the 2-bedroom apartment. They also had studio and 1-bedroom apartments, but I prefer more space. They had a nice dining area, the activities seemed fine, and they provide three meals a day. The facility was pretty well laid out.

My friend moved into Whealdon Estates, and it's beautiful. They're very nice, very helpful, and I would recommend them to anybody. She has a 1-bedroom apartment, it holds everything she needs, and she loves it there. There's always activities going on, like crafts, games, and they always have coffee and snacks for her.

Whealdon Estates was very nice. I had lunch there. The first time I was there, a lady was singing in the meeting room, and the music was transferred to all the rooms. The rooms were very nice and had balconies. It was very inviting and had lots of activities. I met three people - one my age, one a little older and one younger - who were really happy and content there.

I got my sister to facility in Baton Rouge. The name of the facility is Whealdon Estates. I think it is a pleasant place. It is really independent living, but you can ask for assisted living too, so that's what I'm doing. The staff is very helpful and pleasant when I talk to them. The rooms are adequate. I think it is fine, but it is not big enough. There are a couple of things that could be better like they have a closet which is nice, but its door is so heavy that it's hard for her to push it. They do take them out to different places. They also have bingo and people do come in for entertainment like singing and dancing.
