Creekside Living - Cottages and Villas gives seniors a place to live that feels a bit more like a neighborhood than a big building, because they use private and semi-private spaces called "The Cottages" and "The Villas," and these are set up so people can live more independently if that's what they need, or get a little more help in the villas if that fits better, and folks can pick what suits them. The cottages and villas each come as their own living space, so someone can have their own spot, and there are outdoor areas for fresh air and time with friends, along with private places to relax alone. They call their care areas by special names, like their 4-star and 5-star Transitional Care Units, and they offer different levels of help including both independent and assisted living, so it depends on how much support a person might want. There's a focus on comfort with lots of spaces to sit, walk, or enjoy the day, plus the community puts effort into offering activities where people can join in, meet others, and have a sense of belonging. Their services center around each resident's needs, whether that's help with daily life or just needing a safe, home-like environment, and the community really tries to make things easier with a variety of amenities and programs. Creekside Living - Cottages and Villas is open from 09:00 to 17:00 Monday through Saturday and shares updates and info over places like Facebook and the Meta platforms.

Mixed care but ultimately pleased
I had a mixed experience. Early on the facility was short-staffed - I was denied water, left on the toilet for 25 minutes, waited up to two hours for a pain pill, and experienced medication mistakes/overdose; alert buttons were slow and promised therapy/rehab never happened. Meals were greasy and high-carb and there was no clear COVID/visitor testing. That said, staff have been professional, family updates are timely, I have my own room, engaging activities beyond bingo, a secure unit, and now real peace of mind - overall I'm pleased.
