“This third generation owned assisted living home is meticulously maintained with 24 hour competent, caring staff, at a reasonable rate. From the initial interview, through our daily experiences, this home has provided a wonderful experience in a somewhat difficult time.”
“They are a very nice place for seniors who want a hot lunch and to meet up with other seniors. A great community service.”
“I loved it!! I rented a common room for a bridal shower I gave for my soon to be daughter in law. Full kitchen set up, tables, chairs, bright and sunny, and spacious. Amazing, convenient, very accommodating and not expensive. I would recommend to everyone and give it a 5 star if that's the highest star I can go.”

About these figures
Computed on October 24, 2026 from the 8 communities listed in Fairbanks, 132 public family reviews on Google, Yelp and MyLivingChoice, state licensing records and, for nursing homes, CMS Care Compare. The best-rated list ranks communities by average family rating weighted by how many families have reviewed each one, so a 4.9 from three reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from two hundred. No community pays to appear in the best-rated list or in these figures; sponsored and partner listings in the directory results are marked as such. Figures refresh as listings and reviews change.
