    Great location, respectful staff, lively

    I chose this community for its great location - park, hospital and campus all nearby. Staff were respectful and helped me transition during a friendly tour; care is adequate, activities are fun in a large social room, and there's a lively social scene. Apartments are clean and well-kept, smoking in rooms isn't allowed, and meal options are available - a solid independent-living choice.

The apartments come in one-bedroom layouts with 600 square feet and storage of 4'6" by 5'6", and two-bedroom layouts ranging from 782 to 855 square feet, all with plenty of closet space and extra storage downstairs, each apartment includes complete kitchens, dining rooms, living rooms, bedrooms, and bathrooms, and renters control their own heat with individual apartment heating plus central air exchange, which stays energy efficient thanks to double-insulated windows and walls, with rent between $875 and $1,150 each month depending on the size and parking option, though residents will pay about $45 extra each month for electricity, along with separate charges for things like phone, Internet, and cable TV. Garage parking above ground's available for those who want it, and each floor has its own laundry room, so no one has to go up or down stairs with baskets, and storage space in the basement means people don't have to worry about where to keep their holiday decorations or keepsakes.
