Feels like family
We chose Edencrest at The Legacy because the director made us a part of the family rate second that we walked in for our tour. All of the residents and staff were very friendly and welcoming. When we walked into the memory care unit there was a lady who was asking some questions and she just included her in our tour and she was talking to us both and answering all of our questions. You just get a good feeling the second you walk in. During the tour you could tell money was not what motivating her, she really truly cared. We would definitely recommend The Legacy to others looking.

Good experience
We chose Edencrest because my father wanted a smaller facility to be in. We had one of the smallest apartment sizes that they offer, but they have various sizes to choose from. With covid everything was limited but overall I would recommend to others looking

Frequently Asked Questions
about Edencrest at The Legacy

Edencrest at The Legacy offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Edencrest at The Legacy 8.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.

Call (515) 250-2806 to reach a resident at Edencrest at The Legacy.
