I was here for work, I work as a home health nurse. I would have given it five stars but the staff was not very helpful in knowing what building their residents are in or communicating with one another in each building. Other than that, it's a beautiful place

Acacia Creek is a truly exceptional retirement community. From the moment you step onto the campus, you can feel the warmth and vibrancy of the environment. The staff is incredibly welcoming, professional, and genuinely dedicated to supporting the residents’ wellbeing. The community itself is beautifully maintained, offering stunning grounds, modern amenities, and a wide variety of engaging activities. What really sets Acacia Creek apart is the sense of community — it’s clear that residents aren’t just living here; they’re thriving. If you’re looking for a place where independence, connection, and quality of life are prioritized, I highly recommend Acacia Creek!

Why I stayed at Acacia Creek By Carole Silva, PhD At first, it took a while for me to undo my boxes and set up my apartment the way I like. I first noticed the nice balcony where I could put my plants. Everything was so clean and each Monday the housekeepers would come in, change my sheets, dust and vacuum. I was surprised then, on a Monday holiday, the housekeepers still maintain their regular Monday schedule. The next thing I noticed was how fast a team (Mina & Carolee) was at my side when I had a miss-hap. It was in less that 2 minutes the two folks were applying pressure to stop bleeding and applying ice. A call went to 911, I was checked out, and was back the next day plus healed in a month because of their quick action. I have visited all four buildings on this campus, each for a different level of care from totally independent (Acacia Creek) to totally dependent and memory care. The different levels of care are what make this campus different from other senior centers that I have visited in Northern and Southern California and in another state. I would definitely recommend this place over the others I have visited. Combine all the reasons listed above, and it is the one, big reason why I would not let my family take me away from this place. I have been here for 5 years. I love just being friends with my family and not a burden. We have much happier visits, so I can continue my socialization with these happy, caring residents here at Acacia Creek!

My first visit to Acacia Creek was very helpful and informative. Denise spent over an hour giving me a tour and answering my questions. I was impressed with the facility overall and even more impressed with how residents are encouraged to help develop and lead the many programs offered. On my second visit I met a very active resident who was made me feel welcome and answered more questions. With these two positive experiences, I requested to be put on the waiting list to be notified when an apartment becomes available. Getting on the waiting list also permits you to sample classes and other activities at Acacia Creek.

I have often visited friends that have moved up to Acacia Creek. I found the staff to always be very helpful and the environment safe and clean. The residents are very happy and enthusiastic about their lifestyle. Now I am approaching the time for me to move out of my house. I have looked at a number of different senior communities. Acacia Creek is easily the best choice I have found. I happily look forward to making Acacia Creek my final move.
