    Caring community; vet memory care

    I moved my mom here and overall I'm very happy - the staff are genuinely kind and attentive, nursing care is excellent, and the 300-acre grounds, lake, indoor heated pool and nonstop activities make it a beautiful, active place to live. Independent-living apartments are well maintained, the community feels safe and friendly, and having assisted living/memory care and skilled nursing on site is reassuring. Be warned: it's expensive, dining quality has slipped, and I've heard real concerns about cramped double-occupancy memory-care rooms and spotty administration/communication. In short: lovely, caring community I'd recommend with the caveat to thoroughly vet memory care, food service and fees before signing.

    About Tryon Estates

    Tryon Estates sits on 215 acres with nice Blue Ridge mountain views and has a big landscaped entrance that leads to a roomy lobby with comfortable places to sit and some elegant details around the space, and you'll notice little touches like a cozy library in the Memory Care area, modern buffet dining room with a honeycomb-tile counter and wood floors, and a club-like lounge with a curved bar and relaxing seating. You'll find independent living options for folks over 55 who don't need health support, as well as continuing care, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for those living with dementia, respite care, and rehab therapy if needed, so there's something for different care needs as people age or their health changes. The property offers a mix of housing, including carriage homes, one to three-bedroom apartments with features like kitchens, walk-in closets, Carolina rooms, and bathrooms you can move around in, and residents are able to customize these homes to fit their style and needs, while skilled care beds and assisted living suites add extra support for those who require more hands-on care. Onsite, there's WiFi, air conditioning, plenty of customer parking, and clean restrooms, and people can use a well-stocked fitness center, an indoor swimming pool with access steps, a volleyball net and a pool lift for easy entry, plus a salon with hair dryers and manicure chairs for self-care. Daily amenities include buffet-style food areas, relaxing clubhouse and lounge spaces, a stylish dining zone, and a comfortable bar area, all set up for relaxed gatherings or meals. There's a dedicated team, including Moose Penfold as a Sr. Life Care Consultant and Leah Donatelli working in Marketing, both focused on making sure people understand life at Tryon Estates and what's available on this campus. The community offers a full range of services like adult day care, home health/care, independent and assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, and support like tools, a glossary of terms, planning resources, caregiver support, and residents' stories, so people have information when they need it. The community is part of Acts Retirement-Life Communities, Inc., and benefits from a wider provider network plus an online industry voice, and the campus keeps getting updated as renovations bring in more modern features and spaces. People thinking about moving in will find options to fit many needs, all in a calm mountain setting designed for comfort, activity, and support as health needs change.
