Twelve Oaks Senior Living is a gem! I have been involved with Twelve Oaks since my daughter was in National Charity League and the community was our main philanthropy. Since then, the property has undergone a significant renovation and it is BEAUTIFUL. The community was founded nearly 80 years ago, is an icon in the community and is on nearly five-acres of park like grounds and the residents love the open feel because of this. Lodging includes assisted living, memory care and independent living so there's a wide range of accommodations including free standing cottages and apartments. It's a small, intimate community and while group activities are on hold because of Covid, residents are able to do activities in their rooms. Community involvement such as antique car shows, shopping and tea parties, Bible study and more are offered. One of the most talked about aspects of Twelve Oaks is their culinary program. All meals are made from scratch, and many of the vegetables come from Chef Leticia's garden on the grounds. There's a great menu variety and special holidays are always accompanied by themed meals. Julian Hernandez is a beloved volunteer and a professional baker. He creates one-of-a-kind cakes for each resident's birthday! These are just a few reasons why Twelve Oaks is so special. It really is a tight knit family between the staff, residents and their loved ones.
