Hawthorn Senior Living, LLC

I would say it's a great place with great employees who really care. My parents picked this community over others because they liked it and they knew other residents.

I would recommend this facility to others. The residents are very friendly and so is the staff. The staff is also very helpful. Having trouble with meals, but I think will adjust once I have been here for a few more weeks. Need more vegetables.

The staff is very friendly and super involved. The 4 managers live on site and that is unique and very helpful. The move in process was great, they had maintenance there on the day of ready to hang whatever we needed. Meals are great and the kitchen and housekeeping staff are wonderful. I would definitely recommend. We're having an excellent experience.

My father in law has made a complete turn around and is doing fantastic The faculty was very helpful during move in and welcoming. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. My father in law was lonely and sick and is now healthy and flourishing at Sanford Estates. The residents were welcoming also. He wasn't forced to get involved but gently nudged. The other day he when to "yarn and yak" and made everyone in attendance laugh when he said he was just there for the "yakking".

Everyone is friendly and very supportive of the transition. If you have questions they will get an answer for you. Residents are extremely friendly and always say hi.They also offer assisted-living assistance as needed for their residents. Very helpful for the step down phases of life or minor health concerns.

I would rate Julian Estates a 5 plus! On the value, I can't really rate if it is a good value for the money because I wanted to move there because of its proximity to my family and didn't check out any other facilities. Overall I loved living there and I loved the Administration, staff and residents. Very sad to leave. I really enjoyed the cleanliness of the facility and having a dedicated housekeeper to clean once a week. The laundry room was also spotless- a fact I appreciated when I did my own laundry. The meals were mostly excellent although I would have preferred to eat at noon. The evening meal was too close to the noon meal so sometimes I would skip it because I wasn't hungry. I really appreciated the enthusiasm the Administration and staff had for celebrating special events, decorating the facility and generally just planning outings and fun events frequently- example mocktails and cake for birthdays. I have never enjoyed playing games but I was starting to get into the "game scene" and it was a great way to meet the other residents and have fun, too. The residents were very welcoming and it was a wonderful way to pass the time in good company. Although I never personally used the bus services for doctor appointments or shopping, I know most of the residents did and were pleased with the services. The dining room was very well run and the serving staff were excellent. Most of the servers were young but very polite and respectful and made an effort to get to know the residents. For me, Julian Estates was everything I wanted in Independent Living.

I'd definitely recommend it to others. I love the staff and people. Just felt comfortable here right away. I really appreciated that I could bring my cat, with no additional rent or deposit.

Summit Glen is probably best for those that are not looking for an active lifestyle. In other words it is best for more seniors that just want a relaxing environment. The staff is amazing and helpful. They carry food to those that can't come down for dinner. The library is terrific. A large number of books in a nice warm reading area with large type print. The one elevator is slow but probably necessary because of the large number of residents in walkers. They clean the rooms weekly and the place looks clean. Food is usually good but occasionally misses the mark. Really only negative I would make. My parents are happy to be there.

The staff is fantastic. Housekeeping is okay. They come by every week to clean your apartment and give you new bedding. The food is great. If you leave the dining room still hungry, something is wrong. The food is always hot and plenty of it. We have a pool room, movie theater, library, Bible room, Pool, whirl pool. You really don't need to leave this place, everything is here.

The staff are all very friendly and helpful if you have questions or concerns.

I chose Liberty Heights because of the neatness of the facility and the overall client awareness. Staff are overworked. I would recommend Liberty Heights to others looking for independent living.

The staff are kind, available and very helpful. Housekeeping is very good and thorough. Meals are fabulous and alternative meals are always available. Many activities to keep your loved one involved as much or as little as they would like. Staff is very welcoming to family and encourages visiting! This is a great place for Mom!

I would rate 5 on all categories they were wonderful with my brother and his caregiver Great and helpful service and friendly and kind management I would recommend this facility for independent living

When it comes to the activities there could be more variety but I'm not really sure if there is the interest for more. My folks living there are loving it and that makes us very happy!! We would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far. The staff is really outstanding, they make a point to get to know my folks and our family and make everyone feel welcomed.

What I like the most about The Rio Grande community is the overall general environment. The staff members are happy and pleasant as well as helpful and consider, I would recommend this community to other families based on the experience I have had so far. '

Kennedy Meadows is a beautiful place the people are very nice and they always get back to you if you have to leave a message. [name removed] in marketing was great in getting us a deal to move in we one year for [removed] and one free month for studio apartment.

The rent was reasonable and the manager we met with in late April was very welcoming. No one put stress on the family to do anything that wasn't convienent. Apartments and facility were cheerful and grounds nice. They allowed us to let my mom move in two weeks early.

I was trying to find the correct level of care for my mom in a place relatively close to home that she would like and be comfortable in. Hudson fit the bill 100%. From the warm family like atmosphere, to the great amenities, the central location, and the beautiful and light filled interior. The food is good, the staff have all been warm, welcoming and accessible. This is a place that strikes a nice balance between care levels. It is a 55+ community with cleaning, meals, and transportation included. Additional services are available by private companies that work closely with the community to lend the helping hand, therapy, and services that may be needed. They are pet and kid friendly as well which is HUGE for us. I would recommend Hudson to anyone looking for a retirement community that is affordable and has a few extras for your peace of mind!

So far [name removed] is loving being at Carolina Estates. Based on the experience we have had so far with the Carolina Estates community, we would definitely recommend this community to others. Thanks!

The meals are good and served at specific times. Going to the meals helps you acclimate to living at Parker Place. Participating in some of the activities helps you learn names and makes you feel a part of the group. The co-managers and activity director are very friendly and helpful.
