I am/was a resident of this facility

Kirby Pines is a unique place to live! The community is on 60 acres of pristine grounds, complete with a lake, greenhouse with garden plots, a walking trail through woods, gazebo for events, with a welcoming entrance lobby which has been recently redecorated. The activities are too numerous to list, but include musical programs, Mahjongg, bridge and other games, water aerobics, all kinds of painting and crafts, pool, ballroom dancing classes, vespers and religious services. All levels of medical care are available,…

They should know that Kirby Pines has a hard time honoring their contractual obligations. My father paid a $131,000 Entrance Fee and has not taken up residence since this fee was paid. He terminated the contract according to his agreement and they have not returned his Entrance Fee. I have called and emailed repeatedly to no satisfaction. All he wants is for Kirby Pines to honor what was signed. This Entrance Fee was due on 11/27/23.

We visited Kirby Pines Estates and we were very impressed with it. The facility is excellent all the way. The rooms had all the amenities. It starts with independent living, and then as the person gets older and they need assisted living, they have it there, and if they'd need memory care, that's covered there also. Yesterday, they had a barbecue and it was wonderful, it was very good. They have things to do there, like bingo. They have walking trails, they have a lake where patrons can sit around and enj…

My visit to Kirby Pines was good. I like the convenience of it. The staff knew their job description and were very friendly. I thought that the area around it was not so good; it's kind of in a bad location. They were very clean. They have a gym, a salon, a theater, and outings. They would also take you to Walgreens or Walmart.

Kirby Pines Estates is very nice. They're a bit more upscale so their operating cost is a bit higher. They're able to provide more amenities, plus they had both independent and assisted living. I was impressed with the whole setup of the community. The staff was wonderful, I didn't stay for dinner but they had an open-house and they served hors d'oeuvres. It was really awesome, it was very good and I was very impressed. Their apartments were really nice, and they were also getting ready to do ev…

We chose Kirby Pines Estates for my mother, and she will be in independent living. Her apartment is being renovated, they were updating all of the apartments, and we will wait so she can get everything brand new. The visit has been fantastic. We dined there, and the food was excellent. They have rehab, religious services, a library, exercise classes, wellness care, a 24/7 clinic, and trips to the grocery store, banks, and shopping. It's a full package.
