Visited to get information. Staff member was unkind. She basically wanted to ignore me. I guess my jeans and t-shirt meant I couldn't afford the monthly expense. She didn't offer to show me around. The portion of the facility I did view was beautiful.

I was one of 3 original Resident Assistants here when it opened in 1999.<br>I spend time there now with one of my fellow RAs who is the spectacular Activity Coordinator. She actually was the original AC I. 199 and her inception of this position was awesome. All but one of our original residents have passed on now, but the new staff and the complex has thrived.<br>It's a beautiful thing to see it flourish under great staff.<br>Every time I visit, I see smiling faces and happy residents. That was the goal of the founders. The residents are pampered and loved which warms my heart. 22 years later it was like going home.

Poorly run facility. Is a beautiful place with lots of potential but leadership does not care about the residents. Meals are poor, money is spent on frivolous items that the residents do not want, upkeep is lacking. Look elsewhere until administration changes.
