We moved our mom to Coastal Heights a little over a year ago. My mom enjoyed her time here so much. The community made her feel so welcome. My mom enjoyed all the activities and mostly enjoyed the employees especially Mary Baker who was always there to banter with my mom. Unfortunately my mom’s time was short at Coastal Heights but it was a perfect place for her. Thank you Coastal Heights!!

On behalf of the Jackson family, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for the kindness, compassion, and care you showed our family during what has been one of the most stressful and difficult times in our lives. From the very beginning, the staff and front office at Coastal Heights went far beyond what is simply “nice” or expected. Your willingness to accommodate our family, answer our many questions; and support us with patience and understanding made an overwhelming situation feel more manageable. In moments when emotions were high and uncertainty was heavy, your professionalism and genuine empathy never wavered. It was clear to us that the care you provide is not just a job, but a calling. Every interaction reflected respect, dignity, and sincere concern —not only for our loved one, but for our entire family. Those gestures, both big and small, made a lasting impact on us and will never be forgotten. We are deeply thankful for the environment you create at Coastal Heights Senior Living —one rooted in compassion, teamwork, and humanity. During a time when we needed reassurance and support the most, you stepped up in ways that truly mattered. Please know that your efforts did not go unnoticed. You helped carry us through a very hard chapter, and for that, we will always be grateful.

My grandmother lives here and we come to visit every Friday for happy hour. The staff is wonderful and Heidi really has a great mix of talented musicians who make for a good time!

Excellent management. Very good staff. Coastal Heights is not an assisted living community but the care the residents get may be better than one. There are abundant daily activities! The activities director is dynamic and provides entertainment that’s suited for all tastes and levels. Also what is important is transportation that they provide which is going to doctor appts, banks, pharmacy/grocery runs, scenic drives, and even going as far to casinos! This community is surrounded by helpful residents and employees. It is easy to make good lasting friendships here. Also I appreciate that the front desk is supported 24/7. So there’s always help. There are a lot of amenities available, if needed on site such as APEX Home Health, EmpowerMe (physical therapy), and Beauty salon. This community is a very good place for my husband and me!
