Peak Independent living has gone well for me. Staff are friendly, especially the servers for meals. They are awesome and deserve much more respect than they get.

This place could be run a lot better. I lived there for a year and left because of bedbugs and roaches. Also the cleaning crew quit. The food went down hill. The activity director quit. There was no driver and the van broke down.

From the moment I first stepped onto the property at The Peaks at Mill Creek, I felt something special — a sense of warmth, comfort, and community that’s hard to put into words. Nestled in a beautiful, serene location, The Peaks isn’t just a place to live; it’s a place to truly feel at home. The staff here go above and beyond in every way. Their kindness and attention to detail are unmatched. Whether it’s the friendly wave from the maintenance team or the thoughtful gestures from office staff, it’s clear they genuinely care about the residents. It’s those little touches — the prompt responses, the smiling faces, the genuine conversations — that make such a big difference. The apartments themselves are beautifully maintained, thoughtfully designed, and offer both modern amenities and cozy charm. I especially love the peaceful atmosphere — it’s like having a retreat to come home to every day. It’s not just about the physical space — it’s the feeling of being part of a community that looks out for one another and takes pride in where they live. I can’t recommend it enough for anyone looking for a place that feels like more than just an apartment — it feels like home.

I have lived at the chateau for almost 3 yrs. and plan to stay for many years to come! I love living here and the many friends whom have come to be family to me. I do have a very loving family that have their own lives and see me as often as they can. For me the feeling of a family in a living environment is wonderful, and not to leave out the wonderful staff of whom I don’t think I could ask for any better!!!
