As a family, we have been so impressed with the staff, community and welcome, at Garden Way. We have toured independently, as well as with our father and each encounter has made us confident this is a community where a loved one can thrive. Rebecca (Camara), has been delightful to work with. Her ease with residents and staff and theirs with her, is a very telling indication of the regard in this community for each other. Indeed, the residents we spoke with on our tours are vibrant, happy and eager, to know who may be moving in as a new neighbor-friend. While we determined our father’s needs were better suited to Assisted Living, we highly recommend this community to anyone who is seeking an Independent Living option. We are confident and delighted, to recommend Rebecca and Garden Way as a thriving, beautiful and high value for the money, community. As one of the on-line service tools calls out-“this property is rated as a diamond “find.

I've been very pleased with Mom's and my experience at Garden Way, so far. Just a couple of recent experiences: on Memorial Day weekend one of the meals was not fully cooked: chewy, undercooked rice and almost raw brussel sprouts. And, when one of the housekeepers was sick, there was a much-appreciated notice. That said, there was no followup or indication of when the apartment would be cleaned next. (We assumed the following week.) I realize that would be hard to determine if you don't know how long someone will be out, but thought I'd mention. Hence, the four stars, but everything else about Garden Way gets five stars! Thank you.

The atmosphere and the attitude of the employees at the GWRC is wonderful. I can sense a genuine desire to connect with and serve the residents by the staff members. My parents have been at GWRC for the last 4 months, and I continue to be impressed. It is clean and the meals are quite impressive. They present various activities that seem to include people from various walks of life.

I visited the Garden Way Community yesterday and had a tour with their friendly Community Development Director, Rebecca. The community is lovely and they have worked to meet every need of the residents. As I age I will appreciate the meals, transportation and many other amenities and activities that are provided to residents. It is also pet friendly which is very important to me. I really enjoyed my visit.

Mom came to Garden Way with her sister already living there and from day 1 was excited , happy and ready to enjoy life . It is very well ran with amenities for all walks of life and the meals and treats are second to none . Every meal is delicious and healthy and the soup and salad are a meal in itself . Activities are offered throughout the week and even a movie theater . If you get bored or hungry here it is your own fault ! The facility is impeccable and the whole staff is always there for you and friendly . Mom thrived after coming to Garden Way and was so happy to have found “ Home “ , residents are all friendly and welcoming . As a son I too enjoyed visiting with all the residents and staff while there , any concerns and questions were well received . Mom has passed and I feel like she has left a whole other extended family and I look forward to stopping by and saying hi and maybe even have a cookie or two . Thank you Garden Way Retirement Community . Jay Norman , son
