    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Many reviews highlight the exceptional qualities of this senior living community, noting its awesome staff, beautiful property, and great amenities for residents. The community is praised for its location near shopping and restaurants, easy highway access, and a variety of activities and workout classes available to residents. The management is described as passionate and attentive, truly caring for their community.

    Several reviews mention the community's evolution into a caring and loving environment, with special shoutouts to staff members for their helpfulness and positive attitude. The community is recognized for its efforts in honoring residents, such as through Veteran's Programs, and for providing a fun and caring atmosphere where residents can enjoy a busy lifestyle without the chores of home ownership.

    However, one review from November 2022 indicates significant changes under new management, including the discontinuation of several services (food service, transportation, 24-hour concierge) and a focus on the "independent" aspect of living. This review suggests that while the apartments remain nice, the overall service level has declined, urging potential residents to wait and see how the community evolves under the new management.

    Despite this, the community continues to be favored by many for its affordability, beautiful surroundings, and the quality of life it offers to seniors. The staff, particularly mentioned for their welcoming and upbeat nature, contribute significantly to the positive experiences shared by visitors and residents alike.

    Overall, while there are concerns about recent changes, the community is generally regarded as a great option for senior living, offering a blend of beautiful facilities, attentive staff, and a range of activities that cater to the well-being and enjoyment of its residents.
