Awesome - the BEST for me personally!

I became familiar with this building when active with the Chamber of Commerce - and was totally impressed with the facility. When looking to move from single family home to "senior living", I searched facilities within the local Lake County area - and NONE could compare to what is offered here. YES - Office Manger is a "bear" but she is so for US to keep we, the residents safe and secure. She runs a tight ship and I really appreciate that. All staff is awesome and I'm blessed to have the security of such a facility…

I looked at Thomas Place for my mom to live. [Removed], the woman in the office was so rude. She acted as though she couldn't care less if my mom took the apartment or not. I tried several times to make an appointment for a tour but [Removed] was always too busy to see us. When we finally did come in for a tour I witnessed how she treated the residents and I was appalled. I could not believe that she treated them with so much disrespect. This is not the kind of place I want my mom to live. She would not be happy. I…

Beautiful and friendly

I helped my mom move here this year, and she loves this place. The apartment and building are beautiful and modern, with amazing facilities for family gatherings. The office manager, [Removed], helped us navigate the application process with humor and kindness. The building manager,[Removed], is also kind and helpful, and quickly addressed any questions. It's a quiet and affordable living option for my mom, and it's close to stores, banking and shopping. I would love living here myself someday!

Fire Fran she is a monster (the front desk @ Thomas Place)

Do not send anyone you love to Thomas Place. The woman at the front desk is a horrible person! She makes everyone that lives there feel like inmates in a prison. Every senior is terrified of Fran! Fran said in front of me after I told her a woman fell "I'm going to go talk to that [Removed]" my family lost our mom and we cleaned out the apartment. We were charged for an extra garbage dump. A month later Fran sent a letter addressed to my dead mom saying we won't be getting back the secerity deposit and we owe $15. …
