We were very satisfied with this community, it was very clean and an attractive facility. It really felt like home and the staff members were very friendly. The rooms had a real good setup, they offered a variety of rooms for the families to choose from. They tried to make them accessible to all residents. Some activities they had were ice cream socials, on Friday afternoons they would have live entertainment. There was also bible studies on Wednesdays and church services on Sundays. There was also bingo, and get together to watch movies and eat popcorn. They had puzzles, a knitting group and other arts and crafts. They would also bring in an artist every quarter to do paintings with the residents. Every holiday or national day, they would really make a big deal out of it and do themed parties. They also had exercise classes and chaired volleyball. They would give our calendars to the residents every month that had the time and activity this community was doing that day.

I can't say enough about this senior living facility nor it's management especially [name removed]. My father had been "exiting" in a senior living apartment community. Once he moved to Willow Bend be began living again. He was social, his personality returned and his entire demeanor changed. Everyone made him feel welcome and at home! The staff is incredible. Anything we needed or asked for they provided. Don't judge a book by it's cover! It's not all shiny and new but it's clean, one story and well taken care of. I highly recommend you take a look at this assisted living facility!!

I toured at Willow Bend, and while the community itself was fine, I didn't like that the residents were all required to join in the activities there. They have a system of stations set up that the residents have to go though. I realize that their goal is to set up a routine for the residents, but I don't feel that they should be required to do all the activities if they don't want to. Overall, I feel this community would not be a good fit for us.
