Report
A family member is currently in this facility. It is located in a beautiful, peaceful setting. They have a walking track, gazebo and picnic tables, a pretty water fountain, beautiful, well kept facilities, good programs, friendly, dedicated staff. My family member says she feels very safe there and feels good about their programs. She said her meals there are very healthy, well prepared, and delicious. I am relieved that she is there and getting quality care to get her back on track.
