Had the pleasure of touring this facility and was amazed. After experiences with other similar type care facilities I was anxious… But I have to say, this is a place I would want to live! Their staff is so friendly and genuinely caring, the facility is super clean, and oh my- their chef… amazing! THIS IS NOT YOUR STEREOTYPICAL “NURSING HOME”!!! No smells, pleasant employees and residents, amazing food, activities and programs, plus work with charitable organizations- what more could you ask for? You owe it to yourself and your loved ones to check this place out.

Took excellent care of my aunt. She was treated with respect and dignity by the entire staff. They went above and beyond in her care. They communicated very well with our family so we were always kept informed of her condition. I would highly recommend.
