Thanks for your dedication to clients Ann! Ann Huseby was very instrumental in helping with a client who was really struggling with making the decision to make their transition into assisted living. Ann's patience was truly above and beyond and led to them following through with moving in. My clients and their family now are so glad they are safe and settled at Village Shores.

If you want a well run very friendly place to simplify your aging life, this is it. Loads of activities that you can take or leave. Many of the units have beautiful views. Walking distance to two lakes. You can be as independent as you like. Or have your meals in a in a dining room. There’s also skilled nursing and memory care available.

The reflection unit is the best place. The staff care and love the residents as if it was there own. I can not thank them enough for the care and support they gave my dad and our family all the way to the end.
