Elissa helped my grandma look at a new home. She was so afraid to go alone we had work and could not make the appointment. After she called me so excited to move and met a sweet lady named Barb that showed her some fun cruise pics! They have a coffee date next week. Great place and nice staff

My parents moved in a couple of months ago and they love it. Their apartment is beautiful, and the building and public spaces are kept clean and well maintained. ALL staff are friendly and helpful. It gives my family great peace of mind knowing that 1) they are happy and 2) there is around the clock care as needed.

We absolutely love our new home at Woodlands Creek. Where do I begin.<br>Our first impression of the buildings and grounds were excellent. Our son told me that it looked like a ski resort when he first came in through the front door to the reception area; I do agree with him.<br>Our apartment is a two bedroom one that looked new to us. All of the appliances were much to our liking.<br>All of the employees that we have met have been excellently trained and have served and treated us very well. You would immediately love all of them. The whole property runs very well. If there is ever a problem it is attended to very quickly and professionally.<br>The dining experience here is something to behold with a professional chef overseeing everything. The wait staff treats you personally and attends to your every need. The food here is truly a great experience.<br>We are new here having only lived here for less than two months. I know we will continue to love our new home at Woodlands Creek as the years melt away.
