Key Review Excerpts
“My mom is really comfortable here! Lots of community and activities. Like a private residential club with step up facilities if you eventually need them. The one meal I had on property was delicious (calzones…so good). Pool/gym looked nice - everything is sparkling clean just kind of old fashioned in its aesthetic. Lovely grounds and every staff person was friendly!”
“I have live here and the staff is very caring and treat the residents with respect. Givens is like a family and I love it.There have been problems but they are listening to the residents and helping solving them with caring and loving tenderness and respect.”
“We had the pleasure of dinning at Terrene. We did not know what to expect but it all came together with the help and knowledge of Brady (our server). The Filet was cooked to perfection and how do they do that wonderfullness that is their Scallop dish!!!”
