I liked the whole complex of Kendal At Ithaca and the idea that you can go there at different stages, starting with living independently, and then assisted living. If you have to go to the hospital, that is there too. They have doctors looking after you, so you don't need to go anywhere else. They showed me various rooms and sizes, activities rooms, and a pool. The staff was very outgoing, knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. The food is very good. I've tasted it a few times, and I was not disappoin…

I was amazed how caring and available the staff was at Kendal at Ithaca. They had open door policies on the staff offices. Anybody could walk in there at any time and interact with anyone they wanted to. I thought it was amazing that they were accessible. I was sure they wouldn't want everyone clamoring in there, and I thought, because they made themselves so accessible, it wasn't necessary to schedule time to be with people because they were always amongst the people. The whole facility was absolutely lo…

At Kendal, residents were active and engaged socially despite any physical limitations. They had a number of different types of activities and outings, and often brought in outside speakers and musicians to lecture or give a concert.

Kendal has a number of dif…

We are retiring from a ranch life in Colorado and we toured this community. This place is terrific and very nice. The whole place is just too way expensive for us. It costs about $6000 a month to live there. Also in Ithaca, they have a lot of expensive living there because their taxes are very high. Also one drawback we had with The Kendall is that they started a while ago and their population has aged and we are with all the others living longer.
