I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Spacious apartments, staff is caring and attentive to individual needs. My parents get physical therapy several times each week. Lots of fun activities during the week, including swimming during the summer. Food is great, especially catfish Fridays!

What I like best about Mathison Retirement Community is that it was very beautiful. The living quarters were wonderful and the dining room had white tablecloths. It was very, very clean. You had your own apartment and a mini room where you could have your personal belongings. It was very, very nice. It was all connected to one building.

The people at Mathison Retirement Community are very happy, so it makes me happy when I'm there. I have a friend who moved out from a big house to live there and she loves it. So that makes me feel good. They have a library, too. The meals that I had there were good. The room I saw had a bedroom with a living room and it had a better kitchen than they had at my current community, plus the rooms were clean.

I was already familiar with Mathison Retirement Community because my mother-in-law lived there. We were very impressed with the staff, the cleanliness of the facility, the room arrangements, and everything about it. We were very pleased. During the tour, the staff was outstanding and very professional.

Mathison Retirement Center was comparable and a couple dollars cheaper than the other place I was considering. I think that is mostly because of the location. It was inland and not right on the beach, but it seemed to be good. Both of places offered bingo and bunco and all the entertainment. It had nice, spacious rooms. It was two miles from my home, so that would have made it more convenient to do mom’s laundry and spend more time with her. The place was new and nice.
