Review for Shads Landing
It has been a great experience. My Mom's condition changed quickly and everything she needs is available here. The folks have been helpful answering all my questions and concerns. Many of the friends who visit my Mom comment on the cleanliness of the facility, and how the atmosphere is friendly & pretty.I would highly recommend Shads Landing. I appreciate all the services and I know I could not replicate the care my Mom is getting at her house or my house.I am so thankful to A Place for Mom for helping me discover Shads Landing.

Mom Love
My mom is currently a resident at Shads Landing and everything about her experience at this facility has been very good so far! The person that I worked with was very informative and so kind and worked hard along side me to get me exactly what I needed for my Mom. All of the staff is very kind and helpful in any capacity needed! The housekeeping is getting better. I would recommend this Gracious Independent Property to anyone who is looking for a loved one!

Overall pleased. I picked this community because it is close to family. I rated activities low because they don't appeal to me in general. Other people here like them. Staffing is chronically low.

Shads Landing has had a lot of renovations so the community itself is just beautiful - it is so nice, bright, and inviting and we absolutely love it. Their greatest asset is the people - the residents are very very friendly and very helpful. The staff members are very helpful as well and our loved one enjoys being around them . We would say the only improvement they could make would be the meals - they could have more options for those with dietary restrictions.

We had a great tour with Shads Landing and really liked this facility. The only issue is it is truly independent living and she needed more care and involvement with staff than they were able to provide.

We chose Shads Landing because of the availability at the time. The apartment sizes here are on the smaller side compared to others we looked at. I do think they could use improvement on the meals and the prices on the apartments as well. I would not recommend to others looking.

It was okay for our short stay
Make sure you know that it definitely isn't close to an assisted living facility. It's very much so independent living. So make sure that your family member is aware of that and capable of doing everything on their own. The staff were fine. Sometimes I saw the front desk treating some of the residents a bit like children, for instance getting upset if they were there a little early for dinner. I just didn't think that was necessary. But overall, they were nice enough. I would recommend them to others. The other residents seemed happy enough.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to rate and review our community. You are correct that we are an independent senior living community, however our residents have the option of hiring third party caregivers should they need them. We appreciate you sharing this feedback, as we are always looking for ways to improve for our residents. Thank you

Shads Landing review, overall good community
Even though our loved one did not always participate in the activities they still had a lot to offer. The residents would go out on outings to different stores to shop at, they would even have entertainment groups come in and sing for the residents. The food most of the time was good, some days it was really good and other days it was just okay. Overall when you entered this community it was very nice, but the rooms could use some updating. The rooms do not have a central air unit in them so it is hard to keep the temperature regulated and comfortable.
