Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across nearly three decades of licensure, the community has accumulated only one Type B citation, an administrative-level finding rather than a safety or care concern, and no Type A findings at all.
- Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections, spanning 2022 through 2026, turned up no citations of any kind, indicating a clean and steady recent stretch.
- Operating tenure — More than 29 years of continuous licensure with only a single minor citation reflects a long, consistent operating history for this small 8-bed home.
- Severity — With zero complaint investigations and zero substantiated allegations on record, there is no indication of resident care or safety concerns having been raised, let alone confirmed.

AI review summary
Most families describe warm, attentive, family-like care over many years, but two serious accounts of understaffing and neglect in memory care make this essential to verify directly.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Reviewers repeatedly describe caregivers and owners as kind, attentive, and compassionate, often going above and beyond for residents and families.
- Atmosphere & grounds — Families consistently describe the home as lovely, comfortable, and family-like, with residents enjoying features like the backyard.
- Communication — Several reviewers mention the owners being personally available and responsive, even reaching out on holidays to welcome new residents.
- Dining — At least one long-term reviewer specifically praised the food alongside the caregiving her mother received.
- Staff & care — Two reviews raise serious concerns about understaffing and unskilled handling of memory care needs, including a resident left in unwashed clothing, so families should ask about staff-to-resident ratios and dementia-specific training.
- Daily life & dignity — One reviewer described a resident's closet being used for the owners' belongings, which is worth directly clarifying regarding personal space and belongings policies.
- Value & pricing — None of the reviews discuss costs or how fees might change with increased care needs, so families should confirm pricing structure and any additional charges for higher levels of care.
