I am a healthcare account representative that calls on this community consistently, and I have been impressed with the intimate, first name basis, setting also the kindness and warmth of the staff and the way the community is nestled on the property with a beautiful lake view! This is somewhere I would enjoy living myself in a few years!

I never knew this place existed until I started working with a local healthcare company, so you can’t miss what you don’t have right? Wasn’t I wrong! This place is great! They have small ratios, great staff, and they recently remodeled so a beautiful interior. LaRay the director does an awesome job and is easy to get ahold of and the staff members (I don’t remember all their names) are always attentive! I definitely recommend Lighthouse and support everything they do!

Where to start with perfection? Newly remodeled home! Home Manager, Mackenzie Rowe, clearly loves her job and is always willing to go the extra mile! Director LaRay Ramey, is the perfect example of putting others before yourself. If you are looking for a loving, homey, warm place for your loved one to spend his/her later years, look no further. Very individualized to the needs and wants of each resident.
