My mother has lived at Branchland since 2020. She states that they have been very short staffed with a high turnover of cooks, waitresses, etc. Management is often dismissive of special requests for improvements in healthier meals, dress code of staff, cleanliness of walls and elevators. Safety issues have occurred with outside doors being partially left open by kitchen staff and an elevator that has yet to be repaired. She has stated that some staff are kind, and the residents do help each other. But, overall, Branchland is not the independent living facility it was originally advertised to her when she first moved in.

My lifelong friend moved to Branchlands Independent Living in February. She has a beautiful apartment overlooking Manor House and the gazebo. Unfortunately her health begin deteriorating almost immediately and, coupled with the Pandemic and resulting lockdown, she has had to overcome many obstacles. The administrator and staff at Branchlands could not be more supportive and caring. They have worked with Ann and me to meet her every need. It is truly the best retirement community in Charlotesville.

I have found living at Branchlands to be surprisingly convenient, carefree, and stimulating. First: Convenient because banks, churches, grocery stores, restaurants, library, post office, and shopping centers are all within a mile or so.<br>Carefree because I have maid service, my dinners are prepared, utilities included in rent, free laundry, facilities and transportation provided if/or when I need it.<br>Stimulating because of the interesting people who live here, the programs presented (musical and educational) as well as trips to events in surrounding communities. Also, we get together to play bridge, poker, pokeno, dominoes etc. as well as pizza, and movie nights.<br>I can't imagine living anywhere else!

I had great reservations about leaving my beloved Baltimore. Eventually, my daughters convinced me to settle near them in Virginia so I came to Charlottesville, visited Branchlands and chose it as my new home. I Love the setting, the Manor House, the staff and mostly my home. I am happy here.
