RiverWoods Exeter

My friends will be moving into the RiverWoods at Exeter. The tour experience was great. They did a nice job. It's a lovely facility, so we're pleased that they're going to be there. Plus, it's only four miles from our house. The staff was very knowledgeable, very professional, and very cordial. It is a very professionally well-run facility. The facility was well set up, clean, and well-maintained. They have a variety of facilities, depending on the level of care. It's a large facility. They have accommodations spread out across the facility. The assisted living facility is kind of centralized. The people said the food was good.

RiverWoods Exeter was very expensive, but it's also very nice. They had lots of activities for the residents. The facility was very well kept. Except for the cost, it's quite lovely. The staff was very attentive, very considerate, and very helpful. We visited our friend who is a resident there. She took us not to their dining room (which was not possible because of Covid), but to the cafe. The food was very good. They're still very alert to the possibility of Covid infection there. This is a first-class facility. The facility had very nice architecture and the landscaping was really first rate, so it's quite attractive.

When my stepmom wanted to move up to Riverwoods, my dad considered it "God's Waiting Room". However, the care and feeding of the family home, and the concern that his children and grandchildren would not be burdened with his care made him decide to move there. Instead of God's Waiting Room, he has found it to be a wonderful, relaxing, stimulating environment where he can do what he likes when he likes without worrying about landscaping, snow removal, etc. The staff is more than fantastic, very caring and respectful of the people there. My dad loves the workshop, the pool, the hiking trails (which he helped map) The residents are included in all major decisions in how the community is run. It is definately for them and by them. All in all, I couldn't be more thankful that he and my wonderful stepmom is there.

RiverWoods at Exeter was the nicest place I've ever seen. I travel for a living and this was better than the Four Seasons. The only drawback was it's also the most expensive. It was a $250,000 downpayment and $8,100 a month. The service was absolutely great. We were visitors and they were falling over themselves to help. There were registered nurses and even a couple of MSNs, and nurses with Master's Degrees on the floor. They don't wear uniforms, but the professional attire they wear all ties them into the overall RiverWoods look and brand which is black, silver, and white. Everybody had a white shirt, black or gray trousers, and either jackets, sweaters, or vests to match. It was like a professional hotel. You could get in there and have independent living then assisted living services, then nursing care, all the way into end-of-life facilities or hospice. It was fabulous. If you were careful with your money and you want the best place to go, this would be my choice.

RiverWoods was a well-established community with 611 residents on three separate campuses that are close together and under the same ownership. It's a first-rate organization. The staff turnover was very low with some there 15 years, and the place has only been open for 20 years. Everything about it is pretty darn good. There are a lot of choices. They have individual cottages but also have a lot of rooms ranging from single rooms up to a double rooms. There's a lot of land around it and wooded trails. It's on high land with walking trails right down to the river. The food was terrific. The dining facilities were good. They had training facilities, exercise, and workout facilities. It's a first-class operation.

The visit at RiverWoods happened because I know somebody who actually lives there, so they showed us around. The visit was excellent. The rooms were spacious; they have a tennis court, and they have buses.
