We have lived here 3 years now. To experience BG is a privilege. The staff and the residents are friendly, caring and intelligent. The food is excellent, the residences are totally customizable. The facilities are wonderful and getting better all the time. We are exactly where we want to be. This is the right place at the right time.

Superb facilities, staff and service. My parents have been there for a year, one of the hardest decisions, and arguably one of the best!

All I can say is that it’s incredible. I’ve traveled extensively in the USA and have seen numerous retirement facilities, but none come close to the quality that Bishop Gadsten has to offer. I recommend it whole heartedly.
