I have lived here almost 7 years - in searching for a retirement facility, I had a checklist, which included continuing care. Buckner Villas filled the bill. Even though there is no longer a skilled nursing building, (because of plans for a new facility), once you are established in Buckner Villas, you have the assurance of continuing care - and once Buckner Villas becomes your new home, there is no reason to leave. Buckner Villas has it all! If you have a car, there is a parking garage, but transportation is provided - plus 3 meals a day, elegant dining, fabulous food, maid service, maintenance, post office, theater, gym, pool, hot tub, beauty shop, 2 massage therapists, nurse practitioner, podiatrist, manicurist, activities galore, great chaplain, Sunday services, lots of entertainment - the absolute best Activities and Wellness Directors, most helpful staff and friendliest residents, who become family!

Greenridge at Buckner Villas checks off every box of a well run senior living facility . From the moment you walk through the door you soak in the atmosphere of competency, friendliness, and a place that you want to call home. The helpful staff are well trained and long term employees, the food is consistently delicious and beautifully served and there’s lots of activities that are fun, varied, and present opportunities to learn, enjoy life and each other.<br>I’m so happy and grateful that we decided to take the next step in life plunge and make our home at Buckner.<br>Lucy and Steve Tucker
