The staff are very supportive and professional. They are very family and community-oriented. The rooms are great! Roomie and ours has a great view with a birdfeeder outside the window. The Cupboards, refrigerator and extra sink are a bonus.

The staff is very friendly and the resident nurse is helpful and responsive to my mom's needs. Apparently the food isn't that good. We picked this community because, my mom has a childhood friend that lives there.
