It's taken some time so the facility to staff; however, they are doing a good job. Current staff is very friendly. Seems that the relatively new Director is getting improvements implemented.

This is a beautiful community and well maintained. The staff seem to be very responsive. There are a lot activities available on site and they have gone virtual via Zoom due to the pandemic. This is a place I enjoy living.
