Heartfelt Thanks to Lighthouse Retreat!! Our experience with Lighthouse Retreat has been nothing short of heartwarming. Cerita's exceptional efficiency is commendable. Her dedication and quick action made us feel secure. Kerry Ann and Subrena brought kindness and warmth into my Mothers care, and their sincere commitment was truly inspiring. They made sure she rested in a calm, safe space. Thank you, Lighthouse Retreat!

I can't say enough wonderful things about The Lighthouse! My father started attending the program about a month ago, shortly after my mom passed away. Dad loves going and has made new friends and tells me how happy he feels whenever he is there. Recently the staff had my dad up dancing which is something that he has done all his life but due to circumstances had not done in quite some time. What an accomplishment for Dad and The Lighthouse! I was so happy to see my dad dancing again. Many thanks to the caring staff. Please keep up the wonderful work you do. I would highly recommend you.
