- Operating tenure — With over 22 years of continuous licensure, this record reflects a long operating history rather than a short or unproven one, adding confidence to the clean outcome.

3.6Average RatingAveraged from 15 reviews published on other websites
AI review summary
Reviews suggest caring frontline staff and a clean facility, but a serious care-coordination failure and cash-only, high out-of-pocket pricing warrant careful questions before committing.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Multiple reviewers describe the staff as thoughtful, caring, and attentive to residents' daily needs.
- Cleanliness & maintenance — The facility is described as clean and well kept, including amenities like an in-house beauty salon.
- Communication — One family reported a serious lapse when the community failed to promptly notify them of a medical emergency and did not pass along a DNR order to paramedics, which the community itself acknowledged as a mistake.
- Financial transparency — A reviewer noted the community is cash-only and does not accept Medicare, Medicaid, or insurance supplements, with costs reportedly exceeding $5,000 a month, so families should confirm accepted payment methods and total costs upfront.
- Activities — One reviewer felt there were limited activities suited to residents without dementia, so families should ask how programming is tailored to different cognitive and social needs.
