There are a lot of complaints about the FOOD. That is, the quality and the portions. I have talked to the Food Service Director and the Director about this.. We'll see if things get better...

December 8, 2022We are disappointed to see your negative review and thank you for reaching out to our food services Director and Executive Director. Kindly consider raising our review when the menu has improved.
I picked this community because of the price. They are not consinstent, with communicating what's going on with operations of the retirement home. They are understaffed, and could do better with that.

December 9, 2022Thank you for sharing your review and comments. We are disappointed to see your three star rating as we consistently strive for five stars. In the future please reach out directly to our Executive Director so that we may better assist you. Thank you.
I was not at all impressed by NewForest Estates. There are separate buildings so if residents need to get to the dining room, activity room, etc. they have to travel outside. They have to keep the doors open because so many people travel with walkers or wheelchairs which we felt was unsafe. The community also just looked very poor and depressing, but the price was high. I would not recommend this community unless you are on a fixed income.

May 11, 2022Your wonderful feedback and rating mean a lot to us. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience at NewForest Estates!
The people are super nice and I really enjoyed the bible studies. However when it came to the meals they are heavily loaded with carbs and always have the same vegetable's. They could also have better activities - they definitely are catered more towards an older crowd.

April 22, 2022Thank you for taking the time to let us know how we did. We hope you have a great day!
We were looking for something more than just a room for assisted living, more like an apartment. The tub in the bathroom was step in and that would not have worked for my loved one. Other than that, nothing special really stuck out to me about NewForest Estates.

March 15, 2022Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we can improve. We hope you will consider us again in the future. Take care.
It's a nice place. They got a new chef, although they didn't replace the sous chef. So the sides aren't the best, but my parents tell me the entrees are delicious. Housekeeping tends to knock on the metal doors with their keys, so see about getting a doorbell if you're loved one is hard of hearing. Also double check some things before you move in, but that would be true of any place. For the most part, the staff have been very good. My loved one has had some falls, and they were very quick to call the lift services to get her back up and make sure she was okay. They provide assistance to the dining room if needed. And housekeeping seems to be very nice.

February 4, 2022Hi Marge, thank you very much for taking the time to leave us this positive review for our team at NewForest Estates. We appreciate it & so do our other reviewers at Senior Advisor. We hope to see you again soon!
The room was too far from all of the amenities offered in the community. What was offered per the cost and the care needed just did not match up. The tour was good but the community just did not git the needs of my loved one.

December 3, 2021Hi Evelyn M, thank you so much for your positive comments about NewForest Estates!
We toured NewForest Estates and it was not handicap accessible which is what we needed. Also, the apartments were smaller and our furniture would not have fit in them.
