My grand mother recently became a residence of Elk Court and I visited her after flying home from Toronto. I've seen many homes before, but I have to admit, this is the best one I've seen. Well laid out and caring staff always on hand. Large rooms with a unique knick-knack cabinet outside of each room to display individual treasures. Would recommend Elk Court to those who are thinking of long term care for their loved ones.
