Overall pleased. Mainly about value for the money
The only thing I can think of is the food. But I understand it's going to be hard to please 100 older folks. everyone is not going to like the same things. Older folks are set in there ways and I understand the food has to be the hardest part. Mom doesn't like the food. Eats a lot in her room. Said portions are getting better but still not enough. They are currently under a re-model.

Great place!
I truly love Ponder Creek Estates! The location is perfect-It is nestled in amongst beautiful surroundings, yet still convenient and close to shopping, restaurants, banks and more! The community is currently undergoing a remodel/update and I am looking forward to seeing it when it's complete. The staff shows love and compassion toward its residents and one another. They have a great hairdresser who has been at their community for several years now and she goes out of her way to accommodate. They have a group inside the community that provides assistance to its residents when needed and their lead caregiver has been at that community for 12+ years- She's amazing! Ponder Creek encourages independence (as it is independent living) and goes out of their way to make a difference every day to their residents. It is one of my favorite places to visit, as I always walk out with a feel good heart full of love!

Review for Holiday Ponder Creek Estates
I wish there was a security guard at night.I picked this one because it is close to me and because of price.However, I am hearing that price will go up when her contract renews and am worried about that. I really don't want to move her again because she has made friends there and is comfortable.

Unprofessional staff
They should be able to know in detail what the facility has and what they are willing to do for your love one. And don't treat them like a number but a person. Based off of our experience with Holiday Ponder Creek Estates, we would not recommend this facility to others looking. Mainly based off of the unprofessional staff.

A Wonderful Place
This has been a wonderful experience for my loved one. My loved one is very satisfied here and wishes they would have moved here sooner. The staff communication with the family has been great, and they are receptive to the family's questions and concerns. They have a new chef for the community and the community provides three meals a day to the residents.

A Great Place for Your Mom While She Can Still Take Care of Herself
I would tell others that the staff is wonderful. The food is lackluster according to my loved one. The community still isn't able to take the residents outside of the community on outings due to the shortage of staff during the pandemic. Overall, I would recommend the community.

Constant staffing issues
The new management that is here now is much nicer then the previous management. They are having staffing issue, the house keepers have left as well as the kitchen staff. Occasionally house keepers will come every other week but that is about it. At the moment I do not feel like I am getting my money's worth. The community would get higher ratings if there weren't a lot of staffing issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Holiday Ponder Creek Estates

Holiday Ponder Creek Estates offers 2 Bedrooms, Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Holiday Ponder Creek Estates 8.6 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.
