My sister-in-law is in the memory care unit. They treat her very gently and they calm her down. The rooms are nice. They're spacious and their bathrooms are also nice and clean. They're always cleaning. They have puzzles and they work with plants outside. They do quite a bit of stuff. They're all very friendly and very nice.

I toured and it seemed very nice. It was very clean and very well appointed. The people that work there looked like they were enjoying their job. It was very quiet, though. I wish there had been music or something going on. The rooms were nice. The amenities seemed to be appropriate and plentiful. They had physical therapy onsite. I looked at what they call a studio room and I looked at a one-bedroom apartment. The studio was a little on the small side. The one-bedroom apartment was OK for a single person with not much to do. It seemed appropriate for my friend who has a wheelchair, so she would have a space to move around. All the rooms were light and bright. I didn't really see many people taking advantage of what amenities were available. There was nobody doing anything in the activity rooms, so it seemed weird to me that there weren't people moving around and doing stuff. Amanda, who took me on my tour, was very, very helpful and friendly. All the staff seemed very friendly, open, and caring, and I enjoyed speaking with all of them. I had lunch there with Amanda. We sat and chatted for quite some time going over details. The food was fine. I think we had meatloaf that day, and it was really good. The dining area was very bright and it had nice spacing around the tables so that people with wheelchairs would have no problem finding places to sit. It just seemed like a very nice place. They have transportation to doctor's appointments and grocery stores. I was very pleased at all of the extra stuff that was available to whoever would be living there. It's not just a place to live in. It's all of the stuff that makes life livable, the atmosphere, the friendships, and the camaraderie.

It is excellent. My husband is staying in the memory care and the people that work there are very friendly to the residents. The place is very clean and very nice. Their rooms are spacious. There's a lot of room and they're always neat and clean. Their beds are made right away when they're not in them. I think they do a great job.

It was beautiful. It was really nice. I was impressed with everyone that I spoke to there. I sat down and discussed the problems and the things that we're dealing with. We kind of came to the agreement that my husband needed more than assisted living, independent living, or anything like that. It's just not quite enough. I didn't get to see any rooms because we decided we wouldn't look at the rooms after talking for a while. I have a feeling they're really nice though because the place itself seemed very nice. I didn't see a lot of patients anywhere or the people who lived there. I did see some in the hallway, but not gathered anywhere. They explained to me what they offer for assisted living residents. I think it's a little limited and my husband needs more care or supervision. The facility is very clean and nice. The staff was very nice too. They sat down and went over the things that I would be need and be looking at. Everybody was friendly and helpful.

We liked here the most out of the three places we visited. We liked the layout, the rooms, and the staff. We saw a room that had a bathroom and we really liked it. We wanted a kitchenette, but they didn't have any. The staff was friendly and was interacting with the residents. They have a hair salon, a game room, bingo, a little library, and a TV room.

When I initially got here, I waited a few moments before anyone acknowledged me to ask for assistance. However, the actual visit was pleasant. The staff showed me the place. She did do a follow-up to see if there were any other questions that I had. The room was relatively small; it was more like a studio. I didn't see an exercise room, but I did see a room where they congregate for different games. They also have a calendar with different activities throughout the month, which include having a minister come and speak with the occupants.
