    Active community with attentive staff

    I moved my parent to Longview and overall I'm pleased. Staff are attentive and available 24/7, the meals and dining room are excellent, and there are tons of activities (chorus, quilting, clubs, and free Ithaca College courses) plus great amenities - pool, fitness room, theater, library, shuttles and nice lake views. Apartments feel hotel-like with in-unit laundry and accessible bathrooms, though some units are small/outdated and the place can be pricey. Care is generally individualized and independence-preserving, but I did notice inconsistent staff behavior, occasional cleanliness/management issues and mixed experiences with memory care. Good choice for an active senior; if you need strong dementia care or perfect management, tour carefully and ask questions.

    About Longview Senior Living Community

    Longview An Ithacare Community offers vibrant senior living in a picturesque setting overlooking Cayuga Lake, nestled in New York State’s scenic Finger Lakes Region. This community provides a variety of convenient living options designed to foster both privacy and social connection. Residents can choose between spacious patio homes, complete with a garage and open floor plan for those seeking independence and peace, or apartments that offer a perfect balance between personal sanctuary and neighborly engagement. All residences come with maintenance, housekeeping, dining, and groundskeeping services, allowing residents to enjoy a carefree lifestyle while leaving the worries of repairs and chores to the dedicated staff.

    At the heart of Longview’s mission is the well-being of mind, body, and spirit. The organization stands out through ongoing innovation, continuously updating its campus and expanding the scope of services to meet the evolving needs of older adults. Enhanced assisted living options are available to those who require additional daily support, enabling residents to age in place with dignity and comfort, without incurring unnecessary costs for services they may not need. Recognizing that most seniors will never spend time in a nursing home, Longview's assisted living studios are thoughtfully designed for individuals who desire help with daily living while enjoying a homelike environment.

    Longview is deeply committed to creating a life-enriching experience, guided by core values of kindness, respect, dependability, integrity, inclusion, and accountability. The community is shaped by a culture where residents are respected as individuals, and the staff takes great pride in serving with compassion. Inclusiveness is at the forefront, welcoming pets and celebrating diversity among residents. The campus, situated on 34 acres, provides beautiful grounds, inviting communal spaces, and a harmonious blend of tranquility and activity.

    A distinctive hallmark of Longview is its exceptional living/learning collaboration, drawing hundreds of students and faculty each year for robust intergenerational programs and activities. This ongoing partnership creates opportunities for residents to engage in lifelong learning, stay mentally stimulated, and participate in a host of social, cultural, and wellness opportunities. Residents regularly benefit from access to educational programming, recreational activities, and community partnerships that set Longview apart as a model for integrated senior living.

    For those interested in exploring the community before making a long-term commitment, Longview offers flexible short-term assisted living stays and a “Be Our Guest” option, which allows potential residents to experience life in the community on a trial basis. This flexible approach, combined with affordable rental leasing and no “buy in” fees, ensures that Longview is accessible and adaptable to the diverse needs and preferences of older adults. All of these features come together to foster a supportive, stimulating, and caring environment, making Longview An Ithacare Community an exceptional place to call home.
