It has progressive care. Independent living, assisted living, memory care. Also, cost was reasonable. I would say the staff and residents are friendly and welcoming. It's not perfect, of course. No place is. But I'm happy with my apartment, the food, amenities, and location to medical and other needs. Coming here was a good decision.

Garden's of Gainesville is overall above average and very homey atmosphere. No visiting hours to limit your accessibility to the facility and family members can even stay overnight with their parent which is unusual in my experience with assisted living facilities. The food is about average and good occasionally but better than the other facilities that we've experienced so far. The atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant. The amenities are nice in the independent living side and can be used by assisted living residents if they are accompanied by an employee or a family member.

My loved one was severely malnourished and dehydrated when he fell. It is very very difficult to get anyone on the phone in the evening or on weekends. They can improve in the memory care area. They let my loved one not eat for 3 weeks before telling us. My loved one ended up falling and breaking a hip and passed away 2 months later. My other loved one is still there. They have improved with some of the activities and things but it is too late for one of my loved one. I would not recommend them unless you stay on top of everything that goes on.

Thanks for visiting us. Since you liked what you saw during that visit we encourage you to return and enjoy a meal or join one of our programs. When you are here we'd be happy to introduce you to other residents and families who will share with you that our warmth and hospitality, as well as our Five Star lifestyle, may make those extra miles seem less important and that we're closer than you think!

Community Tour
There were a few things here that were not the right fit for us. It seemed be a very high class place. I just couldn't imagine going down for breakfast to a linen tablecloth. We also noticed there was very little communication between our hostess who was showing us around and the residents. They didn’t speak, nod, or smile to each other in the time that we were there. And that concerned me. Also we wanted our apartment to have a better view.

Thank you for visiting with us. Our entire team thinks of our residents as family and tries to get to know each and every one of them on a personal level. We were sorry to see that you did not feel that wonderful vibe when you visited. We invite you to come back and enjoy a meal with us, and in doing so get to know some of our amazing residents and team members -- and we can also show you some other apartments that might be closer to what you were looking for.

Tour of Gardens of Gainesville
The tour that we got was fine, the girl who was giving it was newer so she was not able to answer all of the questions that we had. It was a little pricier and further than another one we looked into so we passed on them.

Beautiful Community
My parents are settling in nicely at Gardens of Gainesville. They really like it there. It is a beautiful and clean community. The staff is very friendly and caring. It is very easy to communicate with the staff members either by phone or text. Also, my parents have phone service in their room so it is easy to contact them. I have dined there several times with my parents and the food is really good. They offer choices and variety in their meals. They encourage the residents to participate but respect the residences preferences if they don't wish to engage. The atmosphere is like southern living home. Very warm and cozy. They have areas for residents to gather and socialize, such as a courtyard, a library, a living room, and a craft area. They have a lot to choose from. I would absolutely recommend this community to others.

We liked the tour from the nice staff. This is a clean community with a nice environment for care. The meals seemed to be appealing. They did not have a dr at night in case I needed a physician. We liked that they had a lot to offer. We would have liked this community. Families should tour this community for the care and value that is offered.

Very Nice Community, My Wife is Well
This is a very nice community, and I'am pleased with my wife's move here. She is doing very well, and being cared for well. They have a great staff, and they are always willing to help. The community is well maintained. I know they do a good job with the cleanliness, everything is very neat and tidy. There are activities for the residents. I would say the meals could use some improvement. It has been a good experience. I can sleep good at night knowing she is safe and in a good place. This is a community I would recommend.

This community just felt like home. The rooms were spacious and each resident had a space outside their room to show their individuality, whether it be their favorite sports mascot, sculptures from their missions in Africa or a child's statue playing hide and seek. They also have two dogs that share both the assisted and memory care units and the residents love them dearly. I could say more, but you really have to experience this one!

Frequently Asked Questions
about Gardens of Gainesville

Gardens of Gainesville offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Gardens of Gainesville 7.3 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.
