My mom has lived at Ashland Terrace for just over 3 years. I can't imagine a better place for her to live! There is a true feeling of "home and family" at Ashland Terrace. The staff is amazing, so caring and helpful. If you or a loved one is looking for a great senior living community for women, this is the place to be!

My mother has very happily lived at Ashland Terrace for 15 years. It is a true God send. The staff is friendly and supportive to residents and family. It is a lovely non-institutional looking home, has beautiful gardens, and a big veranda with lots of seating and rocking chairs under ceiling fans. The residents are all women and we call it a senior sorority house. Mom has lots of friends there and plenty of companionship.
