    Compassionate family care, delicious meals

    I placed my mother here and couldn't be happier. The house is beautiful and elegant but truly feels like a warm, family-run home - staff treated her like family, provided personalized, top-notch 24/7 care, excellent communication, and delicious home-cooked/gourmet meals. Minor downsides: the pool takes up usable space and a shared hall bathroom can feel a bit formal/awkward for visitors. Overall I have peace of mind and highly recommend this compassionate, well-run facility.
