Just had a nice visit with my 95 year old father at the Estates of Charlottesville. They were having an activity, with a DJ playing music, with an “ Under the sea” theme. The activity room was completely decorated and the staff is excellent at engaging with the residents and encouraging their participation. The entire staff is attentive, caring and respectful of all residents. It is comforting to know that my father is safe, well cared for and engaged for the level of his cognitive awareness. Thank you, to everyone at the Estates of Charlottesville.

The Estates at Charlottesville is a wonderful place—staff universally kind and capable. At 75 with diminished mobility and ever increasing medical challenges, the place I choose is more important than ever. This IS the place for me. Thank you!

The Estates at Charlottesville is a fabulous assisted living facility. We initially met with Shannon when my wife and I had a tour, and we fell in love with the staff and the quality of care. The staff is nurturing, and the atmosphere is calming and supportive. I have since moved my brother into The Estates of Charlottesville and his transition has exceeded my expectations.

My mom has been at MS for a little over 2 months after living with us for 6 years. Each residence had its benefits. For example, having her at our home during COVID. But it was time for mom to have more social interactions and autonomy in decision making. Overall MS has been very attentive and thorough. We had a few kinks to figure out in the beginning but that is to be expected as they get to know my mom. Many of the staff have been there for a long time and all of the staff are very welcoming. The diversity and level of activities is amazing! I highly recommend Morningside.

My 81-year-old dad, who has dementia, recently moved into the Memory Care unit at Morningside, and I couldn't be more grateful for the team there. His transition came with major hurdles stemming from his previous residence, but the Morningside team—including Brittany and Brandy, among others—went above and beyond to navigate those challenges. They dedicated an incredible amount of time and personal effort to ensure a smooth transition. The care and compassion they’ve shown my dad during this process have been remarkable. The entire team is responsive, communicative, warm, and sincere. I couldn't be happier knowing that my dad gets to call Morningside home. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team!
