My family has checked in different states and the cost is about the same. Cedarhurst of West Plains is a newer facility than the ones they have looked at! I have made several friends here at Cedarhurst.
Southern Meadows Senior Living in Mountain Home, AR

They have been a great facility for my sister. She's very happy there. Cleaning of the apartments could be improved, they sometimes get a little lax in the bathroom. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend Southern Meadows to other families.
