At Elk River Senior everything seems good. I have no complaints. Everything here gets five stars from me. The facility is clean. The staff are friendly. It is a good value. I am very pleased with this facility.

Crescent Place Assisted Living in Shelbyville, KY

3.5
Most people were very friendly, others not so much. Laundry often was not picked up, and/or returned. Same with trash. Cleaning was minimal. Meals were not good. Too salty. Not enough salads, fruit & veggies.

Cedar Creek of Seymour

4.6
I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The community itself is very nice. The staff are easy to work with. They are willing dietary restrictions if necessary. You have your own everything, and I would go there myself.
