My grandmother is living here and it is the most beautiful and amazing home inside and out! She is the happiest she’s been in many years. The care is amazing and so personalized! The staff is friendly and the owner, Min, is the most wonderful human. This is nothing like any other senior facility… it’s truly a home.

Homestead Estates is the perfect place for your elderly family members especially if they’re hesitant to transition to a senior home. This place doesn’t feel like your standard senior home with 100+ residents and is operated out of a residential house with a very conservative capacity. The caretakers are able to provide 1:1 care and are extremely attentive and sweet.

We made a family decision that my mom needed more care than we could provide at home, but were heartbroken at the thought of her being in a facility. Then I found Homestead Estates Senior living. If I could give it 10 stars, I would. Min, the owner, is on site the majority of the time and communicates with me frequently with updates. My mom, who was reluctant to leave home, is so happy, entertained, and so incredibly well cared for, has nothing but praise for Min and her entire staff. She RAVES about the food and is so comfortable there. The process for getting my mom into Homestead Estates Senior Living was very easy with Min’s guidance. It’s a beautiful home with a family feel. Can’t recommend enough!

Toured Homestead Estates as part of a longer search for the right home for my elderly mother. A few things stood out. First, the setting: large property, gardens, quiet, and the house itself is meticulously kept. Second, the size. It is a private residential home rather than a facility, which is exactly what we have been looking for. Third, Min. She walked us through the daily routines, activity programming, medication management with their on-site pharmacy, their freshly prepared home-cooked meals, and how staffing is structured. She was caring, direct and knowledgeable, no scripted sales pitch. My mom currently lives in a much larger place and the contrast is significant. Strongly worth a visit if you are weighing options in the area.
