I would highly recommend Glen Crest to others. Our overall experience with this facility was great. My mother loved their food. They had a lot of activities, but my mom was stubborn about participating in them. She couldn't remember to go. Dementia.

In the area for the value Glen Crest is a great facility. There are others in the around but they are newer, more expensive and seem to be better suited for a younger crowd. The apartment sizes are very good. She is in a one bedroom and it is spacious and perfect for what she needs. The manager [name removed] is wonderful and has been here a long time, the staff is great, and it is just a really nice and welcoming environment overall. I would absolutely recommend Glen Crest to others looking.

It is one of the nicest, cleanest places I have seen. The rooms are a nice size, there is plenty of activities if you want to participate. The only problem is that it reminded me of an assisted living facility my mom was in. The folks who lived there were well into their 70’s, at least the few I saw. I am not ready to live in a community like that at this time.

Great retirement community
We chose Glen Crest because of the location, the availability, as well as there weren't many other independent living places around. My mother loves the food, there is a good amount of variety. She loves that someone cooks and brings the food to her, it is a luxury she has never had. The apartment sizes are perfect size for her. We went with the studio apartment and we believe she has the best room. She has a sliding door going out to her patio on the ground floor. It has helped during COVID for visiting reasons. My favorite part about the community so far has been the director [name removed], she has been very responsive. I would definitely recommend this community.

I like this community. We are happy with how well the staff are taking care of my aunt. I have tried the food and it is great. The community is very nice and clean. This is one of the only really independent living communities in the area. I would recommend this community.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Glen Crest

Glen Crest offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Glen Crest 8.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
