I was very pleased with the size of the rooms, and with the cleanliness. The dining room was very nice and the hours of operation were outstanding. Many amenities, such as outdoor pergola for getting some fresh air, a movie room, library, and even a salon for haircuts.I feel my father will be very happy there.

Our family's experience, friendly staff

The food is good. The room is clean. The staff is friendly. He seems to be able to get rides to the doctor on Walmart. I would recommend them to others - but there may be a data center going in next door.

My visit was absolutely fabulous! You guys have this down to a perfect science of what I would love to live in for senior living. For me at this time, I don’t think I’m quite ready for that type of living. One of my passions is cooking and I love to cook for others. I know I could get an apartment with the kitchen. I just think for me at this time I should cook for myself and not have all of the meals provided. However, with that said there will come a time that I will want that and you guys are absolutely the best…

Our family's experience

Staff/care, activities, food, cleanliness, and room size are all great. I don't think there's anything more from these areas that I could ask for more. The only thing I would change if I could is not knowing from the very beginning that there would likely be additional charges for her care. I was caught completely off guard. I did see where there could be additional charges, but nothing was brought to my attention until after plans were made to have her move in.
