I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. There is no other community I would recommend currently. The community is secure and your must be let into or out of the community by a staff member.
The staff is very nice, considerate, and helpful.

When my parents first got there, the staff did a great job caring for my parents. When the new management took over there was a decline. I don't think the new staff is doing as well taking care of the residents. The food is good. They have a lot of outdoor space.
