CherryWood Village

My parents are living in Cherrywood Village. It is a wonderful place. The layout, the appearance, and the staff are terrific. They have really nice apartments, too. We have a modest one-bedroom apartment, which is just fine for my parents. It looks great. The whole community is one big family. They genuinely love their residents. They cook for a specific group, and they do a good job of meeting those needs. My parents have been happy with it.

My father was at Cherrywood Village - Royal Anne Assisted Living. There was bad communication from the management, but it's really pretty inside. My brother had made arrangements to come down and have dinner, but they were busy on the day they chose and they weren't able to do the tour. The supposed move-in date was Memorial Day because that's when all of us were free, but the staff said they'd like to make a big deal when they move someone in, and everyone would come to greet him. So, we did it after Memorial Day. I stayed with him all day, and there was only one person who poked their head in just to see how we were doing. There was no big fanfare or any sort of greetings except, "How are you doing?" Then weeks later, he ended up in the hospital because he had acute kidney injury from dehydration. He was more than they could take care of. The food was excellent, the apartment was nice, and they had activities, but they never got my dad involved in them. They provided haircuts, transportation, and they delivered the food to his room and provided food for anyone who visited him. The facilities were great and the people were nice, but they didn't take care of my dad and they didn't seem interested.

I like Cherrywood Village. I don't have anything bad to say. I like the things they have available for the residents to do. You would not have to use public transportation or continue to drive there. The little cottages were adorable, but they're a little bit more expensive than I was thinking. The gal who gave us the tour was very nice. The apartments were nice, but my kids and grandkids would be more comfortable visiting me in a cottage setting than wandering through an apartment building. I liked the covered bridges between the buildings.

Cherrywood Village Retirement Community met all of my mom's needs. She loved it as soon as she walked in. It has plenty of things to do, lots of places to be, and the people are very open, welcoming, and friendly. It is a lovely place, but not pretentious. They have a pool, a gym, an art studio, a theater, a chapel, a coffee shop, a hair salon, massage therapists, and they have outings. This place has been really wonderful.

I visited CherryWood Village. The room was very nice and a good size. It could be a nice place to live. The waiter who served us lunch was very good. They were very helpful and pleasant. The food and the service were good.

CherryWood was very beautiful but big and more expensive. My husband doesn't need that large of a place; however, it was very comfortable and nice. They seemed to have good personnel because we talked to a couple of people who were helpful and pleasant.

My wife moved in at Cherrywood Village a week ago, and she seems to be well treated. It’s the most physically appealing place than some of the others that we saw. The food is good, healthy, and well-prepared. The staff is good generally.

CherryWood was nice. The rooms were very spacious, and the bathrooms were very nice. We were very happy to see it. They had a pool. There was a theater and an exercise room. The dining area was nice. The food was OK. It was a medium size facility. The residents looked happy.

I really liked CherryWood Village Retirement Community. It had a lot of things that I thought would really work for Mom. It was very high on her list. Location was good, familiar, and absolutely beautiful. I think a lot of things are new or possibly remodeled. Everything is just new, really pretty, and planned out really well. They had beautiful furniture. Everything looked really comfortable and stylish and at the same time, accessible to older people. The colors were good for Mom, too, so she can see things.

I liked CherryWood Village Retirement Community because it was lightly colored and airy. Some places felt heavy because of the dark colors but also looked clean and fresh. I especially liked their underground parking and pool. The food was very good, and the waitress was so sweet, helpful, and outstanding. The servings were so large, we wound up taking half of our food home. Everybody was very nice and very friendly.

I visited CherryWood Village. The place is pretty good and it's a newer facility. Their place is just undersize. They have a lot of rooms, but their dining area is too little e. The staff is nice. Their outdoor area is pretty decent. They have good activities. They have a church inside their community. Their fee is reasonable as well.

At CherryWood Village, we really never saw a marketing person or anything; we just decided to go through on our own. They seemed very friendly. The apartments were nice, and I only know this because there was somebody there that we recognized who offered to show us her apartment, but they looked very pleasant and they had a lot of amenities. The people were very interested in talking to other people. The food was good also. The one studio apartment that we saw was very nice and well-appointed.

CherryWood is a very nice place. I would highly rate this place. The room that we saw, which was a one bedroom, was nice and large. They had good activities for the residents, swimming pool, and an exercise room.

CherryWood was very comparable to the other place I visited. Their administration was terrible, though. They didn't have continuity and couldn't even remember that I had set up an appointment. The community was wonderful, but the people running it were horrible.

I liked the fact that they brought in entertainment at Cherrywood Village. They had two wonderful country-Western singers, a husband and wife in their early 50s, visit, and, in the past, it was people like Johnny Cash, Rita McIntyre, and so forth, singing in the dining area of the assisted living. What was nice about that was everybody was welcome whether you're an independent living person or a guest like me; whoever wanted to go can sit and watch them. I'm part of a theater group here in Queens that entertains older adults. I like doing little comedy skits; we've performed a couple of them and liked seeing the interactions, and I saw that same interaction there with the music. These people were singing songs and the older adults that were watching were into it, and it was wonderful to see that interaction. I thought the attitude of the staff was very nice and very caring, which is very important. For example, the young ladies who were helping to set up the show were very nice. I thought the staff was on par in the dining facility; those who served the people were very nice. So, my experience was very positive. They had a gym and a pool, and I did see some people in the pool. They had a community room where they can hold different activities, a library, beautiful grounds outside for walks, and a bus. it was on a long block but very nice. In the evening, they had a recital of chamber music in the chapel, and it was beautiful. I went to that; it was a lovely experience. The apartments were nice, and the food was average. On the whole, it was good. The food was OK, but I didn't think they had the healthiest of choices. They could have had a little more selection and healthy food options.

CherryWood Village was very nice. It was a very warm, very comfortable, modern building. That’s as much as I can say because I just saw the inside of it. I had a quick interview with the staff, and they seemed fine.

The marketing director of Cherrywood Village was wonderful. She was really good. She even gave us books to read. Food was good. I would recommend Cherrywood Village; it is very nice.

The Parkview Memory Care Community of Cherrywood was brand new. They had just opened a month before I visited, and I was just visiting on the assumption that my mom might need memory care as time went along. They had assisted living, and then if you are a resident there and you needed to migrate over to the memory care, then it is an easier transition. I thought it was a fabulous place for people who needed that kind of care. It was very small. They had a central meeting area when you walk in through the main doors. The café was there, and they had a little church built inside. They had a part of an old car with a radio, so people who wanted to maybe go back in time to the 40's or 50's could turn on the radio and listen to that kind of music. They were all studio apartments, and some of them had private baths while some shared a bathroom. It was a nice, bright, cheery place. It had lots of windows, and they had a little courtyard that the residents could go out -- actually two courtyards with a sidewalk around inside the courtyard -- so the residents could actually do some walking and get some exercise outside as well.

CherryWood is a nice place. They have a beautiful swimming pool and that’s what I would go for. I haven’t eaten there, but I have an idea that it's pretty good and I know their standards are very high because I worked in their sister facility. They are very attentive to safety issues and cleanliness. They are constantly monitoring staff and personnel. They are very attentive to those details. I would trust somebody living there and would recommend the place.

CherryWood Village is very close to Adventist Medical Center which is a big plus. It is very close to my church also. The wellness center is very good and there is a large pool along with that. The activities there are very good.

This community is incredible. There is a real sense of family and caring among the residents and employees, the property is beautiful, the restaurant's food is excellent with a full menu, the coffee shop is great - they actually serve Stump Town coffee! - and the amenities are numerous and outstanding - especially the Wellness Center and it's great crew and the Activity team with their steady stream of excursions, clubs, classes, and events. I was first introduced to CherryWood Village back in 2001 and have been a fan ever since.
