Nice building. Lots of activities for residents. The cuisine is edible: some good days. The nurses I dealt with were excellent. Maintenance and hospitality staff were friendly and competent. The senior staff were unprofessional towards me, but they ran the home well. Overall, my mother had a fairly good experience there.

Beautiful retirement home, lots of friendly residents and staff. Food is great considering they cook for 100+ people. Lots of fun activities available if you want to join in. Always outdoor excursions going here and there. The bus will also take you shopping! Cats allowed. Swimming pool and exercise classes available. Bathrooms are big. What more can I say?!!!
