What families are saying about independent living in West Egg Harbor

Recent reviews for independent living in West Egg Harbor

Maurice House in Millville, NJ

5.0
My mom loves her "apartment " I wish the communication was better from the administration. No part is covered by insurance so all expenses are out of pocket

Rose Hill Assisted Living in Robbinsville, NJ

5.0
We had a good tour experience with Rose Hill Assited Living. They were a second floor only full care facility. No access to outside unless family takes them out. They were all very friendly people, but we just liked the layout of a different facility better for our loved ones needs.

Spring Oak of Toms River

4.8
Everyone is friendly and helpful. For the food, I do think that they could maybe have a few more choices for the residents to choose from each day. I would absolutely recommend Spring Oak of Toms River.
