I'd give a 4 across the boards.. always room for improvement. The staff At The Lodge is very accommodating and helpful! The members create a very family like atmosphere, very friendly and welcoming. The grounds are beautiful with mature trees and flowers. This offers an opportunity for members to do a little gardening if they wish. Yes, I would recommend the community to others

When we toured, somebody asked about a different table to do a puzzle on because they had a glass table and it was reflective. And they said they'll get them that and they meant it. I was very impressed with the person who gave us the tour, he was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The apartments or flats or suites were very spacious. They had a lot of amenities as f…
