Key Review Excerpts

I was there visiting my great grandparents and there were mice running through their living room. When my mother asked evergreen what they were going to do and they lady rolled her eyes and said “that’s what happens when you live in a valley..”

Great-grandchild of resident · 2019☆☆☆☆

No medical care. If you are sick they won't even call 911. They call to and ask if they should call 911. It's so depressing to live there.

Family member of resident · 2024☆☆☆☆

I am working towards transferring my father to be closer to his family in La Junta. Evergreen Gardens has been extremely helpful and resourceful in helping me transition him here.
