Lakeview Manor is a beautiful location with a warm and welcoming staff. Our family selected Lakeview based on its' friendly, family atmosphere. Our senior family members settled in within the first week, enjoying new friends and activities.
The Gardens at Southern Manor in Statesboro, GA

I think they paid very good attention to my mom. They were very concerned about her and very caring towards her. They were very helpful and if we had any questions they got the answers to our questions.
Oaks at Pooler

Nice presentation, really understaffed. I would not discourage someone from looking at it as an option. All assisted living facilities have a hard time keeping staff. But it's not a place I would place my mother or father.
