A special place for your loved one

My father spent a couple years at the house here with [name removed] and the Avalon team. He had Alzheimer’s and had become difficult to care for around the clock at home. The care he received at Avalon was unlike anything he could have received elsewhere. The small group atmosphere also worked for him to allow him to feel more at home along with [name removed] care, cooking, and oversight. I will always hold a special place in my heart for Avalon.

Wonderful and Caring Staff

My dad has been in memory care here for the past 3 years and they are fantastic. We are so lucky to have found this place. They have tons of experience with helping families manage the care of their clients while treating them with dignity and kindness.

Thank you [name removed], [name removed], and [name removed]!

Well-kept home in a beautiful neighborhood. Thank you to the Avalon House team for the ornament painting, creating a Christmas experience for the residents for the holidays, the lovely photos you placed around the house, and everything you do to care for my dad. It is truly needed, valued, and appreciated. The TV downstairs is broken (not the staff’s fault), otherwise this would have been a perfect 5 out of 5! See you all soon.

Amazing assisted living

Our family has been so grateful for the care my mother-in-law has received here. The staff are consistently pleasant, respectful, and attentive, and they’re always on top of her needs and quick to respond whenever we reach out. This is a wonderful place that genuinely cares, and we are highly satisfied [name removed], the Director, is welcoming, thoughtful, patient, and understanding, and she always makes us feel at ease and truly cared for. We couldn’t be more thankful to have found a place where kindness is simpl

Clean

I came in town to visit my mom [name removed] and my family and I enjoyed the visit. The workers made sure my mom stayed up for our surprise visit and the place was clean. The staff and other residents were nice to my kids as far as giving them drinks and snacks while we visit.

Exceptional care giver

My father has always been a very difficult person, which did not improve with age. A stubborn Dutchman who knows better. Over the years it had been very challenging to get him in home care and eventually he ended up at Avelon where he found [name removed]. Her genuine caring nature, relaxed and friendly approach to residents and guests is exactly what his temperament needed! Getting him to do what is best for him would seem like an easy ask, it’s not! What he needed first was to be validated as an individual. To be
