Homestead Senior Living in Saint Albans, VT

4.4
Although they were struggling with some personnel issues for a while they vastly improved their staff over time. When my mother had a stroke they handled the hospice care wonderfully, which can really be a great bonus when it comes to this level of care.

The Residence at Shelburne Bay

4.8
Such an incredible experience with these folks. Sarah was particularly helpful - answered our questions thoroughly, made my mom truly feel like a VIP, so welcoming and inviting. We felt like we were truly part of the family!

Harbor Village in South Burlington, VT

Still waiting on current things to get fixed. Overall, I love Harbor Village. Lunch should be heavy meal and dinner should be a light meal.
