I thought The Bluffs at Greystone was awful. It felt like I was at a very cheap Holiday Inn. It did not look like it was set up for senior citizens at all - it had nothing inviting or warm about it.
I toured The Bluffs at Greystone and it would have been my number one pick. I loved it, it was one of my favorites as it was only 15 minutes from my home. The community itself is beautiful, but from a cost standpoint I didn't know if my loved ones long-term care insurance would kick in to help with the cost.

I am a resident of this facility. It is very homey and just like a family here. We have many multi generational activities and many things to keep the residents engaged with the community as well. Please consider this location for your family member who is in need of a safe and exciting place to live.

August 16, 2022Happy Resident!, thank you for your kind review; we are happy to pass along your comments to the team here at The Bluffs at Greystone! We're glad to hear we delivered such a great experience. If there's anything further we can do for you, we are happy to help!
We chose The Bluffs at Greystone because they had a great move in special and we just felt like it was the best one in the area that we had checked out. The size of the facility was great, it was not too large so everything is close by and there is not a lot of walking. The apartment sizes were very nice. My loved one was not here very long but her experience was very good. I would recommend them.

June 22, 2022Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did. We hope you have a great day!
This wasn't sufficient for my loved one. The community was only a year old when my loved one moved in. However, they weren't able to handle my loved one's care needs. I ended up having to hire outside care for round the clock to assist with the care needs of my loved one. There were activities for the residents to participate in. There is a community fee to move into The Bluffs.

We had a very good tour with The Bluffs. We liked the facility, but another place had offered us a discount we could not pass up.

We toured this community and the tour was very good. They answered all of our questions and were very informative. They were very accommodating and the staff was very helpful and friendly. We did not feel rushed at all and they took their time with our family. I would recommend touring this community

A Place for Mom has scored Monark Grove Greystone 8.4 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.
