When it was time to move out of my house, the only place I looked was at the Crossings. It was in my neighborhood and I did not want to be far from my family. I could tell when I walked in for the first interview that it was going to be, my new home. People here are very friendly. There are a lot of Activities scheduled, from music programs to weekly movies and popcorn. If you are thinking about 55+ living, come check us out.!

My husband and I are new to The Crossings. We checked out senior living from FL to WA and our thoughts kept coming back to The Crossings at Brookwood. There are several reasons we kept coming back to the Crossings not the least of which was the feeling we got of warmth and friendliness from all the residents we met. Everyone we met and talked with was satisfied and happy to be living at the Crossings, a good reason that we decided to join them. We enjoy the variety of activities and the cooperation and attentiveness of all the staff. They had our best interests at heart.

The experience that both Gary and I have had has been everything we have expected! Everyone we have encountered has been most helpful and friendly. There is something for everyone to be engaged in, from games to Knitting and crocheting (men can be a part of this too-in fact, men were the first to knit-check your history!). There is a place to exercise and plenty of get togethers. A time to meet for church and coffee time. Come and join us. You will be warmly welcome! ❤️
