The food is good here but there is limited selection for meals and the service in the dining room is quite slow. This may be due to fewer staff since occupancy is only about 50% in independent living.

Our situation was unique-transitional between needing memory care versus assisted living. It was important that I was in residence with my spouse. The staff was accommodating of our unique status.

Everyone there was very nice! Especially [name removed] and [name removed]. I don't know what we would've done without them.
