Elmhaven Manor

The staff isn't quite as friendly...the person who gave me the tour didn't seem at ease with me. I can't help but compare it to [community name removed]. [community name removed] was offering a special: no activity fee, which would've been about [fee removed]. One thing about [community name removed] , they only require 30 days notice to move the 30 days can be given mid month. This was one of the reasons we were able to move my father-in-law after we realized we needed to save a bit more money. Elm Haven Manor had a move-in special which was first month free. However, you sign a one-year lease as opposed to a month to month lease. If you break the lease before the year is up, you owe a little bit more than a month rent in penalty. Not a dealbreaker for most people, but just a difference that mattered to our family and our circumstance.

I'm currently a resident at Elmhaven Manor. I like it here so far and my apartment is very nice. This facility is a retirement community. They do have housekeeping. What they do not have, if you need it, is constant care. They do have a way of checking on people who may be fall risks. There are help/call pull cords in almost every room. They have multiple activities so you can participate in what you want. The meals are once a day are good and they will deliver to your room. The cost is $13.50. You buy tickets to use for each meal and don't have to eat. Use them when you want. They do control amounts that you receive. The meals are a little high on starch and sugar content. This is a very good facility I would recommend it as long as you are mobile and fairly independent. Most of the residents are over 65 and some have been here as long as 15 years. This facility is not cheap, but in pace with other facilities in this area.

I'm currently a resident at Elmhaven Manor. The cleanliness at this facility is great. The staff are wonderful. I have not attended any activities because I feel that a lot of the residents at this facility aren't friendly. Also, the resident community is not culturally diverse at this facility.

ElmHaven Manor is not assisted living, so if you or your family need that, look elsewhere. But ElmHaven is an exceptional place for retirees. We have a great activity director, and there is always something going on.

They do very well with planning activities, games, and food, but it would be nice for them to put plug-ins in the hallways sometimes there a little smell on the first floor. I love their courtesy.

The residents at Elmhaven Manor are very friendly, helpful, open, and talkative. We felt as our loved ones were moving in - having residents like that was almost a comfort to them which we thought was important. The activities do seem limited at times but everything they do offer our loved ones are really enjoying. We think the value is great and we would recommend Elmhaven Manor to other families based on our experience so far.

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. This is a nice, clean, and peaceful place. The staff I have worked with have been very nice and friendly. There are options to dine in the dining room or cook in their apartments. The apartments have a full kitchen in them. There are two communal laundry facilities on each floor. My loved one enjoys the activities offered.

The staff are so friendly and helpful, There are a lot of on site amenities. Currently they outsource the meals, we are hoping that changes in the future and they get a chef again.

This is a nice place for my loved one to stay. I believe they are fairly organized. My loved one likes it here. The staff are good to work with if we have any questions or concerns. The food is better than when my loved on arrived.

It's a very nice place. The office and the people are very good to all of us. There's two of them in the office who do everything for us. Our maintenance man is fabulous, and he his constantly cleaning. You never see him sitting down. Everybody is happy and friendly. The only trouble we had was we were quarantined all through Thanksgiving, and during that time we lost one of our residents to the virus. While it's hard to be quarantined, it was the right thing for them to do. It shows that they care. When we are up and running, we have so many activities it's unbelievable. And it's a good value. You could rent an apartment for the same amount as you pay here, but I get so much more here. They've been very kind to me - they're just great. I can't tell you how nice it is to know that even though I'm alone in this apartment, they check on me and know daily how I am.

I have only been here for a couple months, so still getting adjusted but the staff members I come into contact with are friendly and they do have a lot of activities from what I can see.

It's a pretty good place, and I like living here. I like the people. Everyone I've met has been very nice. I like that I can be independent, and I like my apartment. It's a nice size. I wish it was better suited for wheelchair living (counter height and cabinets and things), but I manage. I don't really eat here. I tried the food a couple of times and didn't like it. But we're getting back to doing activities, and I've had a lot of fun with that.

Nice property and budget friendly. Best pricing among properties we visited. Staff very friendly.

Overall, it hasn't been bad. My loved one has been very comfortable here, in her apartment as well as with the other residents. I've had no cause for alarm. The value is pretty good. The rooms are great. The maintenance people are great. My loved one doesn't have to wait if something's broken. They routinely check on things proactively. The food has gotten so much better recently when they hired a new company. It was like night and day. There's been new management at Elmhaven as well. The office staff keeps the door locked, and they won't talk to you face to face. That kind of ticks me off, because if I have a problem, I want to speak to someone directly and not have to leave a message. A lot of that could be due to Covid though. And before Covid, my loved one liked it here because it was just so alive. There was lots of social interaction and engagement going on between the residents. So again, any changes are due to Covid. We like that there's been a clinic here to give vaccinations to the residents. And I believe they've done a great job of protecting their residents during this time.

I chose Elmhaven Manor because the apartment size is very nice. It is handicap friendly and everyone here has been nice. They promised me a rent reduction as well so it was the best deal at the time. Overall it has been a good experience and I would recommend them. I am excited for things to get back to normal so we can do more activities.

We have had only positive experiences since moving into Elm Haven in mid July. Staff are very helpful.

[Name removed] has been living at Elmhaven Manor for a few months now and loves it! The facility is clean and the staff are wonderful. He only uses services that he specifically needs, but, if at any time in the future he should require more help, it is available. So glad "A Place For Mom" helped us out and found the perfect spot!

It has been a great place for my mother.

My parents are comfortable there. It has a very cozy atmosphere. Residents are very nice and extremely helpful. Lots of things activities too. The only negative aspect is the food. Parents would eat downstairs if it were. Residents have stated that it could be improved. Parents have a great kitchen so this (at this time) aspect is a moot point.
