citation.
- Track record — Over 14+ years of licensure, this small 6-bed home has drawn 7 Type A and 16 Type B citations across 5 inspections, a notable cluster of findings for a home this size.
- Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections (2023 through 2026) produced zero Type A and zero Type B citations, marking a clear improvement over the earlier record.
- Operating tenure — More than 14 years of operation gives real weight to both halves of this picture: a rockier earlier stretch and a demonstrably cleaner recent run.

Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Multiple reviewers describe staff and caregivers as attentive and kind, with residents treated like family and even showing improvement in conditions like dementia.
- Activities — Reviewers highlight engaging activities such as art projects, crossword puzzles, singing, exercise, and games that keep residents active and mentally stimulated.
- Atmosphere & grounds — The backyard is repeatedly described as big and inviting, and the overall environment is called clean, cozy, and friendly.
- Value & pricing — One reviewer noted the monthly cost was significantly lower than a comparable community, making it an attractive option financially.
- Communication — One reviewer felt staff speaking a foreign language in front of residents, and discussing finances in common areas, came across as disrespectful and should be handled more privately.
- Atmosphere & grounds — A couple of reviewers mention the common area and front sitting space feel small, so families should ask how shared indoor spaces are used day to day.
- Daily life & dignity — The community has a religious component, including Sunday communion visits, so families should confirm how participation is offered versus encouraged for residents who may not want it.
- Financial transparency — Since pricing details are limited, families should verify current monthly costs and how fees may change if a resident's care needs increase.
