I really am happy with everything so far. My mom seems to be adjusting well. I think the friendliness of the staff and brightness of the facility stand out most. Also it is extremely clean.

Review for Summerville Estates
I picked Summerville Estates because of the staff. They welcome me not only with a firm hand shake, but a pull in hand shake hug. I would say to my friend that Summerville Estates is a perfect place to live. No more cooking and cleaning. The facility has a warm homey feel. There are pictures/artwork on the walls in the public areas. The food is great! There is a menu you order your food from. It's a 5 star restaurant quality food and service.

Highly recommend
Staff are wonderful! The only reason the facility did not get all fives is there was some miscommunication when we arrived and we were sorta left on our own to navigate the place. Because my mom has a lot of family support, we were able to do so. But had my mom had less family support, she probably would not be doing so well and could have been a bad experience. I think our situation was a little unique as my mom did not move in right away (thus confusion as to when she was actually there) and they were not expecting

Review for Summerville Estates
We chose it because it's a beautiful place, with the right level of care for now. And they had a handicapped apartment on the ground floor. Warm, friendly place. Good sized rooms compared to similar places. Some staffing issues, but I suspect that's everywhere. The "handicapped" bus they got is NOT wheelchair accessible. The food is pretty good, but mealtimes take forever.

Continued decline by new corporate owners
I think things are getting really bad at Summerville Estates. The new chef is pathetic. Comes in late to make breakfast. Everything‘s backed up; the food has been almost inedible. I mean there are some people here that will eat anything. A lot of people don't eat much of what's on the plate. Today was supposed to be eggplant Parmesan but they were two pieces of eggplant! The rest was sauce dumped on the plate. The vegetables were overcooked and disgusting; and they heaped a bunch of pasta With some horrible tomato sauce. Little nice things local management did for us, were forced to end by the corporate office. Rather than let regional habits guide staff for caring for clients, it's all one way. If this is Hawthornes new corporate policy they are sadly mistaken in their approach.

The only deficit might be their "Ambassador" program that utilizes residents to welcome newcomers. It could be that my sister, who is the resident, refused an invitation to go to the dining room, but she has not been "escorted" to the dining room to break into the group. She doesn't go because she is afraid she will sit in someone else's seat. It is made clear by staff that there is not assigned seating, but the residents gravitate to the same table and people, friends that they have made. It is just difficult to make your way at first, but I fully understand it is no doubt my sister's unwillingness to adjust that is keeping her in her apartment. She loves her apartment, and is very contented there. She does not wish she had chosen any other place. It would have been the same situation wherever she had moved. I worked in the field of senior living, and the Estates has thought of everything to address any needs the residents might have. Excellent value for the money!

Hi Anonymous, we're sorry that we weren't the perfect fit. Hopefully, you've found somewhere that is just right for you. While we do offer two main entrees in the afternoon and evening, there is always a full selection of Always Available menu items that change regularly for our residents. Each meal also offers several courses and the ability to mix and match from one entree to another, so usually, we can satisfy most appetites. Best of luck to you!

Summerville Estates review
We do understand the struggles with staffing and even the supply chain issue but the portion sizes of the meals are a little small - even if you ask or a large they are still smaller and the quality of the fish is poor. However, they do have a lot of different activities going on all the time - from different meetings to garden club, arts and crafts and birthday and holiday celebrations. Also when we come to visit there is about 20-30 residents that gather around the grand piano and sing songs. There is transportation on sight and on Wednesday's they have different outings like to go shopping, Tuesday and Thursdays are appointment days. They also have movies upstairs every night.

tour of Summerville Estates
I toured Summerville Estates and had a good first expression and tour experience. I found the community itself to be very nice, however they did not have a 2 bedroom available and I really needed the extra space. the community I chose was also significantly closer to my son, which was very convenient. I really liked Summerville Estates and if they had the availability, I likely would have chose them.

Very beautiful, positive environment.
Overall it's a very nice, very professional, and very clean facility. In the limited experiences I've had so far with the staff, they have all been great They're very positive, open, and friendly. They want to help anyone who needs help. They always say hello to the residents there, even if they're in the middle of dealing with another situation. My loved one says the food is good, although he can be happy eating pretty much anywhere. Activities are still limited due to Covid, but they're trying to keep everyone safe. And they have beautiful grounds and plenty of outdoor space so you don't feel cooped up inside.

A Beautiful and Caring Community
My parents have lived here for a year now. This community is many times better than the community they moved away from because of the caring staff and well managed services they provide. Just walking in the door you can feel what a warm and nurturing environment it is. They have made new friends and new memories and are able to enjoy their golden years the way my family and I have always wanted them to. I highly recommend this community.
