Key Review Excerpts
“The facts are that our staff is A+ without exception. The evacuation notice for our area of Altadena was issued hours after the area one block away (E of Lake Ave). Staff, the fire department, and the sheriffs did an amazing job under pressure”
“Monte Cedro is an upscale retirement community of more than 200 people in four story independent living units. It is run by a non-profit organization, something of a novelty these days, with terrific facilities, two dining areas, and a comparatively young resident base, and levels of care available.”
“I loved this place because you get to dance in your gown.”
