Lakewood Reserve is widely praised for its vibrant activity program, particularly under the direction of the Life Enrichment Director, and its clean, well-maintained physical environment. While many families report high satisfaction with the care staff and the facility's welcoming atmosphere, there are recurring concerns regarding management turnover, inconsistent communication, and occasional issues with food quality and administrative transparency.

Key Review Excerpts

Lakewood Reserve has taken care of my mother with dementia for nearly 3 years and they are fantastic for her. Whitney puts together some great activities -- exercise, parties, musicians, outings, games, etc.

Memory care family member · 2026★★★★★

The menu offerings the 2 days I had lunch with him were like dinning in a fancy restaurant with a 6-month waiting list. I feel so secure with one of the most precious people in my world being at this facility!

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

They have never gotten her medications correct and refuse to follow doctors orders. When she had a fractured vertebrae, they refused to give her pain medications because she wouldn’t ask for the exact medication.
