Saratoga Retirement Community

You might think why I am giving One Star. Let me explain to you, why? One star for initial impression from the front desk customer care team. We went to their open house on May 27, 2026. There were 5 Ladies standing there checking people in, however Lady name Ellen mostly spoke and others were looking funny towards us. She was refusing to acknowledge that we called to make the reservation. She said it is for independent living when the flyer said assisted living, memory care as well. They assume our mom needs assis…

I visited this facility

I went to visit my mom's friend in Saratoga Retirement Community. She was there for rehab. It was absolutely outstanding. I would give it a 10. My mom going in said, I would go there. My mom felt that it was beautiful. What stood out were the grounds, the inside, and the cafeteria or their dining area; it was beautiful. They had an atrium with birds. It was definitely upper class; there's no doubt about it. I saw the food that was served to the patients. It was excellent. According to her, it tasted good.…

I visited this facility

I have seen at least four or five places, but Saratoga Retirement Community was one of the best, and it's very, very beautiful. It's like this grand place sitting on a hillside, almost like a palace, but of course it is more expensive. I've seen their assisted living, their independent apartments, and their townhouses. The staff I met was very gracious and very respectful, and they answered all the questions that I had. The layout was wonderful and everything was huge -- like there's a huge dini…

I visited this facility

We went to Saratoga Retirement Community. We walked the grounds. It was pricy, but nice. We all wore masks. The staff was very nice. We did the grounds and the inside. It was nice inside, but older and matronly in terms of the art. It was clean. They weren't expecting me, so it was a shuffle left and right, north, south, east, west to find somebody to give me a tour, but it was handled very well. They had a swimming pool, a beauty shop, and woodworking shop.

My Mom and Dad chose this place for themselves. They have been at this facility for 14 years. It has been a wonderful place for both of them. My dad passes away in 2008 and my mom has since moved into Assisted Living. There will always be an adjustment period to get things settled and a routine established. My mom has good friends and the staff is wonderful and caring here. If you take the time to work with the staff it should be a wonderful experience. That has been my experience. I feel my parents were well cared…

Money precedes over welfare

The Saratoga Retirement Community (SRC) doesn't always do what is best for the residents. They seem more concerned about making money. Adult children need to be advocates for their aging parents, special as illness take place. The SRC pushes the residents into assisting living or memory unit even if the resident isn't ready or really need the change. The adult children should read the contract before their parents move into the community.
