My mom is in the Special Care Memory Care at The Inn at Bear Trail. I do not know much about the other areas. The Memory Care unit is clean and the staff is nice, but they just don't have enough staff all the time. I'm not sure if that is uncommon in the current economy. They do very litt

About the facility
The Inn at Bear Trail

This charming and rustic community has the inviting atmosphere of a northern vacation lodge. With its fireside lounges and vintage-style pub, the residents can enjoy card games and story swapping over a cold pint, or cozy up with a good book by the hearth. Tucked in between the wings of the lodge is a sprawling courtyard with a landscaped brook and cascading waterfalls, surrounded by hand-carved rocking chairs to sit and enjoy the view.

The Inn provides elegantly furnished private suites, a movie theater, beauty salon, putting greens, and a lush enclosed bird aviary. Community members enjoy daily social programs, live entertainment, and frequent outings. The Inn contains a quaint and peaceful chapel where services and prayer gatherings are held.

In addition to discrete assistance with activities of daily living such as grooming and dressing, the Inn’s professional care staff are able to manage individual wellness care plans and provide memory support for those experiencing Alzheimer’s or dementia-related diseases. Accommodations are kept secure for residents’ safety, and care services are offered around the clock. The Inn also features a Vigil system to ensure the care of its residents with memory support needs.

Care
My mom is in the Special Care Memory Care at The Inn at Bear Trail. I do not know much about the other areas. The Memory Care unit is clean and the staff is nice, but they just don't have enough staff all the time. I'm not sure if that is uncommon in the current economy. They do very little in my mom's area because the majority have hospice, too.

Still Looking for Improvements With Activities
This is a nice looking community. The staff don't seem to interacting with my loved one, anytime I visit my loved one. They seem to spend a lot of the time with the residents that are not ambulatory. It would be nice to know more about the attention my loved one is receiving. There are three meals a day served and there are choices for the residents to from. The staff communication with the family is good and they are quick to respond to our questions. Anytime we visit we don't see any type of activities. We see residents in the common area sleeping and staff doing paperwork in the corner.

We are happy that our loved one is so well cared for
We are very pleased with the way that our loved one is taken care of. She is very happy there. I think the meals are fantastic and all of the services (including church) and activities are very well run. They have so many to choose from.

Our family had an in person tour and the tour itself was great this was our second choice. However when we saw the memory care side it just did not seem to be very active and lively.

Home Like and Comfortable
We like it a lot and would recommend you check it out for your loved ones. There has been some hiccups with medication, but it is being worked on. There is usually something on the menu for everyone to find to eat.

I would recommend the community to others. They were good. The communication with the staff was excellent. The activities included art, and several others for the residents to choose from. I don't think I would change anything about the community.

Definitely a beautiful facility, warm, home-like atmosphere
We chose The Inn at Bear Trail because it is a newer, beautiful facility. It is like a mountain lodge and my dad loved that type of atmosphere. The location was also good for our family. His room size was pretty good and they did a good job of keeping it cleaned up. The staff were not as good with communication as we would have hoped, but they also had more responsibilities with everything going on. Overall, I would recommend to others looking.

An excellent place to live
The Inn is an excellent place to be. It is quiet, and there are many things to do here. The residents who live here are very nice people. The staff are terrific, young people. The food is okay. My son chose this place for me, and I think he did a good job. I am happy here and its a nice place for me to live.

Great care but food needs improvements.
We chose The Inn at Bear Trail because they had a good reputation. It's a new construction and we liked that because we knew it would be clean. One thing they can improve is the selection and quality in the Memory Care section.

Outstanding Care
I am very happy with the great my mom is getting here. This is a new community and very clean and taken care of. I know. that the staff are very attentive to her needs. She is enjoying the activities and really likes when they bring in children. The food is very good and she is pleased with variety. This is a close location for me to be able to see my mom more. I recommend this community for outstanding value and excellent care.

about The Inn at Bear Trail

The Inn at Bear Trail offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored The Inn at Bear Trail 7.5 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.
