My mom was here for several years and really enjoyed the other residents and the staff. It's a really small community, the smallest I've ever seen, and it's all on one level so it was easy for her to get around with her walker. Great for someone looking for a warm, family-like environment.

I definitely recommend it if someone can afford it. The food is great when they do community events each month but not a lot of choices that my dad likes on regular meals.
