Vintage Park at Gardner

We really like the nursing staff and the manager, our only complaint we have about the place is over the weekends there are no regular staff members. The rooms are nice, and our loved ones thing the food is good.

Vintage Park at Ottawa

This is a nice place for your loved one to be. I would recommend to take your loved one to see the community. If you can stay a little bit and see activities in the community you will be able to see how things go.
