Tour experience
I really liked Country Cottage, probably the best out of all of the ones we toured. Unfortunately they have just recently shut down their location in Hoover and their other location was too far away for us to drive to.

Tour of Country Cottage
We toured Country Cottage and we didn't like the tour experience or how it looked in the very beginning. The room was very small and the community controlled the heating and cooling of the room. The gave us a call and informed us that the Hoover location is closing down and asked if we wanted to see another. We declined because we did not have a good first impression here.

Good Community, Needs Improvement
The community doesn't do activities for the residents. The staff look after my loved one; however, the residents aren't as closely watched as I would have hoped. I would recommend you keep a close eye on your loved one if they are here.

my tour of Country Cottage - Hoover
We toured this community and the tour was very good. They answered all of our questions and were very informative. They were very accommodating and the staff was very helpful and friendly. We did not feel rushed at all and they took their time with our family. I would recommend touring this community

Fantastic Community
They have kind staff and they are a clean community. The staff worked hard to make sure the resident felt comfortable. They couldn't provide adequate transportation to dialysis. Due to the pandemic they didn't have any activities going on. My loved one needed additional care and due to this my loved one moved out after a short amount of time.

Cottage Lifestyle for Memory Care Seniors
Overall, I rate them highly. They seem to have genuine compassion. It's a smaller place, a little more intimate. The living situation is a cottage feeling, which suits memory issues well. I haven't been able to be inside due to Covid, but the exterior seems to be maintained well, the building is in good shape, the parking lot is clean, and the landscape is tended to. From what I can tell, they're taking good care of my loved one. I would recommend them for sure.

Just Like Being at Home
The community was great. I wish I placed my loved one here to start with. This had a home feeling, instead of like a hospital. The direct staff that assisted my loved one were wonderful. The food was enjoyed by my loved one, and they ate every meal.

Negative
My mom was there for 7 years. It was good at first, but gradually the services began to decline. The food became poor, the employees quit interacting with the residents... no games, just nothing. The employees got down to two who responsible for taking care of residents, food service, cleaning , etc. at least 75% of my moms belongings were stolen. She fell several times due to negligent care. When we left, we were charged over $300 even though our contract said no charge would be declared fir painting. There were many others negative occurrences. Do not use this facility. They used temps fir the weekends who spent most of their time sleeping, talking on the phone or smoking on the back porch

The employees I met could not have been more helpful. The small environment really gives County Cottages a feeling like you are in a home. The only reason I am giving it four stars is that the rooms are all studio and are quite small. This was not the right fit for my mother in law, but it is definitely worth a look if the studio apartment is okay with you. The employees really seemed to care about the residents and work to make the people there feel loved and like they are at home.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Alabama regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Alabama regulations for Assisted Living.
