What this means for your family
This facility is highly regarded for its ability to foster independence and social engagement for seniors. However, because of recent reports regarding service reductions and inconsistent dining, we strongly recommend asking for a written list of current services included in the monthly fee and verifying if those services are guaranteed in the contract.

22 reviews on Google“American House Lakeside (often referred to as Baldwin House) receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the staff's kindness and the positive impact on their loved ones' independence. However, there are serious, specific complaints regarding a decline in services, including issues with meal consistency, housekeeping, and reports of bedbugs. Prospective families should be aware of the stark contrast between glowing testimonials and critical reports of service reductions.”

Key Review Excerpts
“The ENTIRE staff is amazing. It’s been 4 months now and even my dad continues to say what a great place and is so impressed everyone knows him by name.”
“My parents have been there two years and we have recently found out that they are taking away all their services at one of the two buildings. Including no food on the weekends. No more housekeeping, no nothing, they are on their own.”
“Since becoming a resident, she is absolutely thriving. She now looks forward to going to lunch every day, which gives her a reason to get dressed, stay active, and socialize with others.”
