Easy 5 stars. We got the opportunity to collaborate on a commercial for Whaler's Cove and it couldn't have been easier. Amanda, Laura, and really all the staff and residents were aligned on helping to create as awesome of a final product as possible. For anyone looking for an affordable option for assisted living that doesn't compromise on quality, look no further.

My mother has been a resident there for 3 months and is very impressed with the staff and cleanliness of the facility. They offer a variety of activities, if you elect to take part.
