CriticalRun fast!! Do not get sucked into buying. You will never be able to sell. Some building are better than others so research that. People are very cranky and love to bitch at you here. Can't sell my place. Worst mistake I've ever made moving here.

CriticalSkip Heather Gardens. Each building has a building monitor called an AR Area Representative that thinks they control everything. You do not want to be in this type of dictatorship. They even tell you when to do your laundry. Bad environment for healthy living. RUN FAST! Big mistake in buying here. Staff is extremely rude also.

CriticalI visited Heather Gardens a week ago. They rushed me through, and they weren't able to answer all my questions. The units were small, and they were not kept up very well. They also had different rules for different people. I visited the independent living part of it, and there were a lot of amenities and a lot of activities. They have game nights, movie nights, and different things during the week for the elderly.

PositiveHeather Gardens was pretty comparable to where I am. It is just in a different location. They got a golf course, activities, a library, and a little community center. It is pretty much the same thing. It is beautiful. It is very nice, very clean, and well kept. The staff was great. They are topnotch. It is open. There were different buildings, and it is centered around the golf course. It's really nice.

PositiveMy dad lives at Heather Gardens which is like a condominium for 55 and older. He has his own 2-bedroom unit there. It's independent living in a retirement community so they have activities and facilities for the residents. They have their own kitchen although they also have takeout available from their cafeteria which is closed now because of the COVID, but they still do takeout orders from their residents. The staff seemed really nice, they were just maintenance people and they didn't really have nurses …

PositiveHeather Gardens is a senior community; so it’s a small industry. It’s excellent, and my mom has a lot of support. A good place to be. It’s a whole cottage industry based on supporting the senior community, and there’s every service you could imagine. Everyone has been so kind, and so professional.
