Overall sentiment across the reviews for Rose's Place is mixed-to-negative. Several reviewers appreciated a warm, homey atmosphere and noted that the facility director personally guided them on a tour and that residents appeared to get along. Despite those positives, a number of recurring and significant concerns dominate the feedback, and multiple reviewers ultimately concluded the community was not the right fit and would not recommend it.
Care quality and resident engagement are the most frequently cited issues. Multiple reviewers described the level of care as minimal and observed residents spending much of the day propped in front of a TV. Reviewers explicitly noted a lack of activities — "no activities" — and felt social interaction among residents was limited. Those observations suggest limited programming and engagement efforts, which reviewers perceived as negatively affecting residents' day-to-day quality of life.
Staff and management present a mixed picture. The facility director's involvement in conducting tours was noted positively, indicating some level of engagement from management. However, reviewers also reported concerns about staff — using terms like "sketchy" — and pointed to high turnover. High turnover combined with reports of minimal care raises concerns about staffing stability, continuity of care, and training. Several reviewers also felt the tour did not give a clear or comprehensive sense of how the community operated beyond a superficial walkthrough.
Facilities and cleanliness concerns were raised as well. One practical issue mentioned is the presence of stairs, which creates accessibility challenges for residents with mobility limitations. Cleanliness concerns were called out directly; while specifics were not always provided, the mention of cleanliness alongside staffing and care issues contributes to an overall impression of lapses in maintenance or housekeeping for some reviewers. Size perceptions were mixed: some said the community was "bigger than what I was looking for," while others emphasized it remained "pretty small," indicating a mismatch between expectations and reality for different families.
Social atmosphere is described inconsistently. On the positive side, reviewers referred to a nice community and a homey feeling with residents who seemed to get along. On the other hand, some reviewers observed limited interaction and wondered whether the social programming was sufficient to foster meaningful engagement. This divergence suggests that individual experiences may vary depending on which part of the facility one sees or on the particular day of a visit.
In summary, while Rose's Place has attributes that some families find appealing — a home-like feel, a small scale, and hands-on attention from leadership during tours — multiple reviewers identified serious concerns about activity programming, the level of care, staffing reliability, cleanliness, and accessibility. These issues led several reviewers to decide the community was not a good fit for their loved ones. Prospective families should be aware of these patterns, probe specifically about activities and engagement, staffing levels and turnover, housekeeping standards, and mobility/accessibility before deciding, and consider arranging extended visits or multiple visits at different times of day to get a fuller sense of resident life and care practices.
