Key Review Excerpts
“I have lived at Spring House Estates for 4 1/2 years and my parents lived here for nearly 20 years. Best choice we all ever made. There is an immediate feeling of family and friendliness from the time you walk through the front door.”
“I am a resident for 9 months at ACTS SPRING HOUSE ESTATES. I have found the staff to be friendly, caring, helpful and professional. I am enjoying independent living that is centered on wonderful neighbors (residents), many activities including enjoyable trips, games and health fitness programs.”
“I feel so happy my parents chose this place to move to in their late 70s. They were able to update the 2 bedroom apartment; as time passes, the estates adds safety features as needed. There are many activities. The food is top rate.”
