The food is good. Help with showers due my disabilities is great. Place is warm in winter, cool in summer. Best is how nice the owners and their employee daughters are to all of us.

We're very pleased with the care at this community with one major issue. It's a lovely place, very clean, and the staff are friendly. However, they cannot deal with any sort of intravenous care. Any sort of IV has to be done elsewhere, which may be an issue for some residents.
