Very clean and friendly staff. Administration was so good with the transition of a family member going in.

Well Sue our new Activities Director has come onboard with a blast. Sue is just what we needed she is full of joy, and it spills over to the residences. She is always trying to get everyone involved in the activities and to make sure that they are fun for all. Most of the time you will see Sue come through the door first every day of the work week. Sue is always helping out at mealtime making sure everyone has everything they need. Once again, I want to welcome Sue onboard and say thanks for everything she does.

I can’t thank the staff at Cottonwood Senior Living enough. They helped with my mom and were extremely helpful and caring. I would recommend Cottonwood for anyone interested in assisted living. Tammy, Leslie and Alissa and all the staff at Cottonwood are amazing people.
