My father moved in beginning of June 2026 and it was a wonderful experience. We worked with Fran. She really was personable knew how to be available and went through all the options. It just felt like she knew us. The staff, such as April, Shannon, Kim,<br>Kim and Dominique have been great building relationships along the way. My father loves living there!

Went to a lunch and tour event today. It is by far the brightest, cleanest retirement community I have ever been. Food was delicious. Happy residents and clean smelling with lots of activities and amenities. Very impressed.
