Now that’s true peace-of-mind!

They truly accommodate everyone to the highest levels.
I would recommend this facility anytime, my mother in law lived here for 8 years and I can tell you they were some of the best years of her life! She was so happy here.
My mother also did rehab here and loved it, she was so well taken care of.
Vicki is truly a gem, she manages to give the best possible care available to everyone.
My pleasure to give this review.

This week, we’re shining a light on Sam and Lynda Burd, Independent Living residents who joined our community just over a year ago.
One of the things that stood out most to Sam during their search was that we’re a non-profit community.
“In my research, I felt that non-profit... communities were more stable, and their governance was resident-driven, not shareholder-driven. That was very important to us.”
We’re so grateful to have Sam and Lynda as part of our community! Read more about their story by clicking the link below. 💙👇
