Lawanda did an excellent job of explaining Lanier Village Estates to us. She listened to us and our questions an spent time not telling us but showing us what we needed to see. We walked miles until she had answered all of our questions. We met many residents along the way all of whom she knew and they were all excited to see her. We felt this community met our needs and would be an excellent place to spend our remaining years. Thank you for the conplimentery dinner, it was excellent.

We have been at LVE for only 5 months and are considered to be “newbies” by all the new friends we have made. Who knew that moving to LVE and living with a bunch of “old people “ would be so much fun. Yes many people told us that while we were doing our due diligence but to witness this firsthand is truly special. We love it here!

We have lived at Lanier Village Estates for nearly four years and are so thankful we made the move here. Staff and residents are friendly, supportive and fun to know. There are numerous staff sponsored and resident organized activities. The apartments and cottages are generously sized and well maintained. Having a full range of services ( independent living, assisted living, memory care and nursing home) on the campus gives us peace of mind
