I have friends (an older couple) that have moved there very recently. The place is very neat and clean, the food is very good and they love it there. The people that live there are very friendly and the place has a lot of activities. It is situated very near the Northeast Georgia Hospital .... great location and easy access to their doctors!

I work in healthcare and I’m in lots of communities every week and this place is so inviting and fun. The residents are happy and thriving. Daphne the sales director goes above and beyond for her current residents and future residents. Michael has done an amazing job creating a new vision and the hospitality really shows. Activties with Amy and events with the whole team are so much fun and top tier. Melissa does a wonderful job in the office and creating a wonderful atmosphere! This is the place I would want to be if I were in independent living.

First off, this is NOT an assisted living facility!! It is strictly INDEPENDENT! Living!! Please stop advertising it incorrectly!! It is a great place to live with wonderful food, lots of activities and a warm group of residents. But it is not the place for those needing a lot of assistance or continual monitoring and care!!<br>In retrospect, I appreciate the fact that our facility is now more accurately being shown as a retirement community rather than an assisted living facility. In light of this move in the right direction, I have given further thought to my rating and upgraded it to 4 stars. My intention was never to caste aspersions toward the staff, administration, or management of Smoky Springs. As previously stated, they are all wonderful and we are fortunate to have a hem here.

How our free service works, and how we are paid

Georgia asks us to share this with you in writing before we introduce you to a community.

MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps you find senior living. We are paid by our participating communities: if you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

We do not own or manage any community, and none owns us. Our only ties to the communities we list are the referral agreements that pay us and the listing upgrades some buy. A community that pays us is marked Partner or Sponsored on our site, and a community that has bought verification is marked Verified.

The communities we suggest may not be every one in your area, and we can only make introductions to communities that work with us. We suggest communities by the care you need, the area, your timeline and budget, and what families say about them, never by what a community pays us. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it.

To make an introduction we share your name, contact details and the care needs you told us about, and nothing else. You can stop using our service at any time, for any reason and at no cost, and if you do we will let any community we introduced you to know.
