What this means for your family

While the facility offers a beautiful environment and engaging activities, families should be cautious regarding the consistency of care and billing transparency. I strongly recommend asking for a detailed breakdown of all potential fees and observing the facility during weekend or evening hours to gauge staffing levels for yourself.

Key Review Excerpts

Tanum was fantastic. So informative and very empathic in a such a kind and caring way. I felt like I’d known her forever.

Prospective family member · 2023★★★★★

Staff is responsive (to pendant alerts) and provides very good care; Excellent activities calendar and activities staff; Meals are good - wide array of meal alternatives can be substituted for the planned menu item at meal time.

Family member of resident · 2024★★★★

For the much higher price, the personal care does not seem better than cheaper alternatives. While the building looks clean & new, in some ways it is more frustrating to deal with constant personal care problems.
