5 / 5.0

It's been really good. She is making it her own. They were the only one in the general area. Compared to other apartment complexes, it's a small development, and very clean. The manager was very inviting. She is happy with it, and so we are happy with it.

5 / 5.0

The community does a great job taking care of my loved one and all the staff will help with anything needed. They even bring the activities to my loved ones room. I would high I would highly recommend this community to others based on my experience.
