The legacy is a family-friendly living community for our aging population. It feels more like a neighborhood than a retirement community. There is plenty to do there, pet friendly, and has a homey feel to it. I would say the only thing to improve on would be the lazy pre-made, pre-frozen meals. I mean, if youre paying thousands of dollars a month I think they would be able to hire someone that can cook from scratch.

Love, love, love this place! Good, kind people that truly care about their residents! I have had some unexpected changes with my parents and they helped me by communicating honestly about the situation and doing what they could! A shout out to all the amazing folks that work here! Although, my parents situation is not what I had hoped for the two of them, one of them is still very fortunate to call the Legacy their home! Thank you!!
