    First-class building with caring staff

    I live here and couldn't be happier: the brand-new, beautiful building and garden feel like a first-class, safe, comfortable home. The staff and caretakers are amazingly kind, attentive and professional-responsive management, excellent memory-care support, and genuine, proactive communication. Daily, resident-driven activities (karaoke, cribbage, exercise) keep people engaged, and the ever-changing, delicious dining makes meals a highlight.
