If I could give this more stars, I would. This community is very welcoming, and all the residents and staff are always so happy. The sales director, Juliet is very personable and kind. I trust this community with all my clients. The location is super convenient as well!

My 87 year old widowed mom moved to Island House in June after 55 years on Lopez Island. She was very nervous about the move because she didn’t know anyone and was leaving a very tight community. Her experience at Island house has been wonderful. She feels very welcomed and talks about how friendly the staff and residents have been. She’s already made several friends and is participating in some of the exercise and activity classes. It’s been a huge relief for me and my sisters. I can’t say enough positive things about the staff, residents and facilities.

My mom and I loved our tour of Island House! Juliet was so incredibly helpful in answering all of our questions and giving a tour of the property. Along the way, she introduced us to staff and a few current residents. She described the community as a big family, and that is what it felt like from our tour!
