I’m outraged, we have donated several thousands of dollars for the residents of lake ridge, the facilities van has been out of commission since the first of December for several months… why? Why is it still broken? This is our sense of freedom, we deserve transportation that’s the least yous can do for us! Sincerely a LARGE majority of your residents… I’d give zero stars but it’s making me give one.

Lake Ridge Assisted Living is a great place to be! They have many engaging activities for the residents, the food looks amazing, and the nursing staff is top notch. They keep families informed as to any changes with their loved one. It is a smaller facility, but really feels like home!

Lake Ridge Assisted Living provides so many activities for the tenants! There is always something new and exciting to do! The Activities Director (Tammy) is so creative and has such a contagious, positive attitude.

My sister had a senior waiver, so she was treated like a vagrant. They accused her of smoking in her room and other things. They did what ever they could to remove her, to make room for private pay residents. She lived in hell the whole time she lived at the facility. Especially by the adm. Then she was evicted. Awful place!!!!
