True Connection Communities

One of the things I enjoy most about Pine Ridge of Garfield is the family like feel, everyone is so friendly and welcoming to one another here. It truly feels like a community. I love the many activities they have to offer, the games I can play with my new friends, there is always something to do here!

The staff are very friendly and always willing to go above and beyond! I enjoy the variety of activities and the manythings to do. I love my experience here at Pine Ridge of Garfield, it feels a lot like home.

This is my home!! More than I ever expected. The amenities are beautiful, the staff is truly interested in your well being and so friendly they become family. There are continuous activities, off premises functions, transportation provided for medical appointments, etc. The food is fabulous. with three meals provided daily. Overall, I feel as though I'm living at a resort!!.

I would like to tell you about a place that I didn't even know existed. This place is the Verena at Hilliard. It is a 55+ place and it is beautiful. So clean and inviting. I stopped by last week. I am looking for a place for my mom. The staff from the start was so nice and kind. The lady at the front desk welcomed me and without any hesitation asked me to have a seat in a conference room setting while she asked for a sales lady to come and talk to me. She came back to me with a bottled water and kept me company until a sales lady came in . She explained to me what came with the unit and took me around to look. Very nice and made me feel comfortable. I told her my mom was having difficulties walking and remembering things and wasn't sure this was the place for her but told her I would be in touch. I then met a very outgoing and also welcoming. She introduced herself as the Activities Person. So nice and also welcoming. I would recommend this place to a more active person

When I drove on to the property, I saw people out walking their pets and checking their mail- everyone gave a friendly wave. I met [name removed] at the clubhouse, and she showed me around and introduced me to several residents. The Clubhouse and pool are so lovely, and everyone was so inviting. It felt very much like family!

[name removed] was so full of knowledge and answered all of my questions in a timely manner- The tour was so welcoming, and the property is so beautiful! The clubhouse was alive with people swimming and laughing.

My mom wanted to give up her home for senior living in 2019. She was hoping to move into a place where a friend was living. Sadly that friend passed away soon after she moved. The facility offered activity choices that she could pick and choose what suited her. The staff is warm and caring. Always encouraging her to be a part of the community. With Covid hitting early in 2020 things were a struggle for all senior facilities. By 2022 her health was failing and had to give up her apartment. She was placed into an assisted living facility, that she hated. Fortunately, that spurred her on to getting stronger to move back to Pine Ridge Villas of Shelby after 5 months. The staff helped me, again, to find the apartment that best suited her needs and welcomed her back as if she was never gone. Maintenance quickly takes care of any repairs. The entire staff is awesome. Now, at 99 years of age she is strong and loves living independently with new friends and enjoying activities of her choosing.

They are nice and understanding. It is a very clean facility. Friendly staff and good food too. I would recommend Pine Ridge to others looking.

Laurel Springs has it all— wonderful gated community social activities, wonderful helpful staff, and lovely living spaces. There is also a lot of trees and other aesthetics that is maintained by the management. My dad has a very nice shaded patio that faces the lake, He loves it there! Although they do not provide care like an assisted living facility, we will add services that he needs in the future on our own. This just made good sense to us and he is much much happier with this.

We enjoy it here at Laurel Springs because we can set and watch the ducks and geese on the small lake behind us. I like being here behind gates (for security). We have walking trails and a great staff that really takes good care of us. We also have things going on at the clubhouse everyday:Games, Crafts, Morning Coffee, Lunches, Dinners. We also have entertainment brought in by the staff at least once a month. Laurel Springs Is just a wonderful place that you can’t help but like.

What makes this place so special is the administrators and the help. My wife and I have not wanted for anything since we moved here. We can be as social or unsocial, physical or unphysical as we choose. I am 85, been here 4 years, and plan to stay at least another 25???

This 55+ Active retirement community is excellent. The property is clean and peaceful. The Laurel Springs community is friendly and super active with games, outings, guest performers, and monthly cultural events. Lastly, the staff is on top of their game - communicative, responsive, friendly, and caring to the entire community and their families. My dad has made so many friends and is proud to call it home.

Plenty of activities if you’re interested and the freedom to choose which ones fit your lifestyle. Or the opportunity to just relax at home. The residents are friendly and congenial. The staff is accommodating and service oriented. A lovely place to live and enjoy.

The staff are professional and great fun. Neighbors are all very friendly and fun to be with and the homes and grounds are very well maintained. Lots of fun activities to attend with something for everyone's taste. It is like living in the neighborhood from my younger years.

I went to tour this community and they were having happy hour and invited me to stay for a drink! They were all so friendly and engaging. Can not wait to be a part of the party! It was clean and there was a pool and hot tub too. Lawn care was maintained and they told me they even provide lightbulbs.

I went to Laurel Springs for a tour and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They were attentive to my questions and made me feel seen as well as understood. The community was beautiful and well maintained. [name removed] took a personal interest in assisting me with everything I needed.

The top category is the meals/dining. Meals are excellent with many choices and substitutions allowed. Where else, if you don't like the three main dinner entrees could you be offered filet mignon as an alternative? Based on the experience I have had so far, I would recommend this community to other families.

[Name removed], the Director, is wonderful. And the sales lady that we worked with last year was so sweet. We don't have house keeping. The move in process was fine, but we did all of the moving. The facility doesn't provide meals. I would recommend the facility. The people seem safe and that's what matters.

Spacious apartment. Continental breakfast daily. Delicious lunch and dinner with many choice. Sunday Brunch with Mimosas. Biweekly cleaning. Pub with happy hour. Casino with lessons. 2 libraries, Computer room. Entire staff is warm, friendly and attentive. Will recommend to all.

I would say that for a mostly independent senior it's wonderful. Lots of activities, very happy with the food in the dining room and can also request carryouts or alternative select entrees at any time. Housekeeping is good and staff is always available to help with any problems. If anything needs to be fixed it is done in a timely manner.
