I came here to continue therapy on my neck. When the therapy was over tried to return to my home which to not far from here. The bad part is I’ve tried to go there. I can’t because this place is wonderful. The apartments and the people - residents and staff- are especially nice.

Tuckahoe Pines RLC is a beautiful environment that feels like home, filled with friendly residents and staff. The apartments are spacious and have the basic modern amenities. Food (3 times a day) is gourmet delicious. A multitude of varied activities prevents boredom. The health and happiness of the residents is uppermost. We are glad we moved in at age 83 to enjoy the services that make our life enjoyable.

We've found Tuckahoe Pines to be a beautiful, safe community glad to be with one another! The staff are cheerful, helpful, and creative, and the amenities are great. The wonderful dining room, workout room, comfy theater, hair salon, craft room, and several lovely, dedicated spaces for playing games, reading, puzzles, and even a video game arcade offer something for everyone! TP provides many opportunities for residents to connect with others and is well worth exploring for older adults of all activity levels.

My husband & I looked at several places to find one that would be our retirement home. Tuckahoe Pines was the only one that we walked in and immediately felt at home. We love the staff, the atmosphere, the amenities, and the other residents. After 6 months of living at Tuckahoe Pines, we know we made a fabulous decision.
