Glen is an enthusiastic Eskaton Ambassador and we truly appreciated his consultative approach. Every step of the way, he made sure all of our questions and needs were addressed. If you are considering a life plan community, Eskaton Village Carmichael and Glen Province are worthy of your consideration.

Making the decision to move a loved one into memory care is one of the hardest decisions a family…read morecan make. From the moment my grandma moved into Oakmont of Carmichael, we knew she was exactly where she needed to be. Lindy, who oversees the facility, is truly exceptional. She is kind, compassionate, accommodating, and genuinely cares about both the residents and their families. During every interaction, she made us feel heard, supported, and valued. Her leadership is reflected in the culture of the entire community. What stood out most to me was the staff in Memory Care. Every single person went above and beyond for my grandma. They were attentive, patient, loving, and treated her with dignity and respect. It never felt like they were simply doing a job--it felt like they truly cared about her as a person. As a family member who spent a great deal of time at the facility, I had the opportunity to get to know many of the caregivers, staff members, residents, and families. The warmth and genuine kindness I witnessed every day was something special. My grandma loved living there. There were always thoughtful activities to bring joy to the residents, from fun events like Mocktail Mondays to musical guests and entertainment throughout the week. The staff work hard to create meaningful moments and a sense of community for everyone who lives there. As my grandma's health declined, the care and compassion shown to her never wavered. Knowing that she spent her final days surrounded by people who genuinely cared about her brings our family an incredible amount of comfort. We will never forget the kindness, patience, and love that was shown to her during that time. To everyone at Oakmont of Carmichael: thank you. Thank you for caring for my grandma, for treating her with dignity, for supporting our family, and for making a difficult chapter of life a little easier. You made a difference in her life and in ours. She loved it there, and we will always be grateful that she called Oakmont home.

We moved my 83-year-old mom to Traditions (Memory Care) here in November 2025 since I live just a…read morefew miles away. This was the third place she had lived in during 2025 and we've finally found a place that we all like! I'm super impressed by the professionalism of the entire staff. The Executive Director, Lyndee, is amazing - friendly & energetic and is always available to answer questions, address concerns, hold an family meeting, or just catch up. All of the front desk staff are always smiling and it's cute how they automatically open the front door for you when they see you about to walk in. The staff in Traditions is on top of it... they check in on mom frequently and encourage her to get out of her apartment and participate in activities. When she declines, they'll visit with her a bit in her apartment to make sure she's doing ok. Linda, Gilda and Erick are standouts that my mom really, really likes (that's saying a lot, too!) They've called me a couple times when mom refuses to take her meds (usually she's confused and thinks she's already taken them) or if she's upset and crying. Since I'm so close by, I can pop over there to help her out and keep her company. I'm so glad mom moved to Oakmont Carmichael and it has relieved a lot of our stress to know that she is so-well cared for!

It was elegant, appeared modernized and fresh, but still homey. A few lovely and elegant antiques remain here and there, but they don't distract from the fresh look. I spoke to a couple residents who said they loved it. The place was peaceful and quiet other than a group leaving for an event. I was given some respite information and literature, and the price was laid out clearly along with minimum stay, provided in writing so that any financial disputes should be easily settled. The Director's followup was supportive of my unique needs and staff was very kind. I am very glad I reached out to Caring.com to find this hidden gem in a good location. The only piece missing for me was a swimming pool. Definitely worth a look. Note that many of the negative reviews here are quite old and should probably be dropped to be fair, as the Director's name has changed from those mentioned and the descriptions are not aligned with the upgrades I saw.

There are nice seating areas outdoors and in. In the main lobby is a WII, which was being used as we toured. I was impressed with the number of residents that were out an about and friendly and engaging. Other senior apartments did not seem to have as many happy residents. Only two meals are served each day, lunch and dinner, with a limited selection of choices, but apartments include a full (albeit small) kitchen. Apartments have a nice patio or balcony. There is only one elevator for the entire facility, which seems like a potential hazard if the residents on the second and third floors have mobility problems and need to be evacuated in an emergency. Hallways are covered with smooth industrial (though tastefully patterned) carpet. Apartments however, are carpeted in a deep plush. This makes it difficult for residents using walkers to maneuver in their own apartments. Winding Commons is owned by the same company as Campus Commons Senior Apartments. Winding Commons is the better of the two.

The administrator was rude and we felt never addressed concerns. We found a beautiful place for less than this place charges and there was activities and options s for socializing there.

I moved my mom in a few months ago and, like many families, was a little concerned about the changes that were taking place. However, I've been very impressed with the new management company. The new Executive Director has been attentive, positive, and genuinely engaged, which gives me confidence that the community will continue moving in the right direction. No community is perfect, but when you compare the cost of senior living today with what The Landing provides, there is a tremendous amount of value here. The staff has been caring, the residents are friendly, and my mom has been happy with her experience. If you're looking for an affordable independent living option for a senior parent or loved one on a fixed income, I highly recommend taking a look at The Landing at Carmichael.

We moved our 90-year-old mother into The Landing at Carmichael over 3 weeks ago. My Mother and…read morefamily were immediately impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of the staff, as well as the cleanliness and well taken care of facility. She had been in another independent living facility that was one level and it took a bit for my mother to navigate as this is two stories and larger. However, the staff (this includes EVERYONE, the Executive Director Aileen, t Rea in reception, Juan in maintenance, housekeeping and culinary staff, Lily the chef personally introduced herself to us, I wish I could remember all of the names to give a shout out to) have been wonderful, and were always friendly, courteous and helpful and assisted in her learning curve, she has now mastered the route she needs. She loves her unit and the view of the courtyard. The lunch and dinner meals have a lot of variety and use fresh ingredients. My mother is a modified vegetarian, and the culinary staff has worked to make sure she is comfortable with her choices. We shared a couple of minor challenges in her room and the maintenance staff immediately assisted in suggestions resolving them. She is still new and has not taken part in the MANY offered activities but is looking forward to trying them. I also want to mention the other residents have been welcoming as well, which I feel says a lot about the friendly environment the staff strives successfully to ensure.

Due to the pandemic, a lot of what they could offer at the moment is limited, but it's like that with all the places right now. The one that stood out to us was cleanliness of the facility. We noticed no odors, dirty carpets or floors, or any trash issues. They seem to take great pride in the looks of the place both inside and out. Another thing that stands out is the food. The sales director told us that there is a big focus on the culinary here, and he wasn't lying. My grandmother absolutely loves it for the most part. She also enjoys the activities that they currently can do during this pandemic. Specifically the hallway bingo, and art classes. The staff are professional, and there's been no issues there. Overall we're satisfied with how Atria has treated her so far, and if she loves it, we love it too.

After ten stressful months and thousands of wasted dollars at another facility, we were asked by…read morefacility administration to move our mother out ASAP. We frantically began trying to find her a spot, but it was hard because of her somewhat unique care needs. When we toured Aegis, we were skeptical. Without exception, the recruiting/admissions staff roll out the red carpet no matter what facility you're considering. They engage with staff during your tour, hype up the longevity of their employees, brag about the extensive amenities provided, answer all of your emails and calls immediately. Unfortunately, as we discovered at Atria (review pending), that treatment can end abruptly once you sign the contract and write that first check. But not at Aegis. Here, that excellent sense of security and care you get during your first tour is something they obviously strive to maintain. And it shows! After a full month at Aegis, all I can say is that I'm more impressed every day with everything, from the grounds to the staff to the food to the activities. Even the admissions coordinator continues to assist us and answer every question we have. The staff is happy, even if you're not touring. Someone comes in to check on my mom no less frequently than once an hour whenever I'm there, usually twice. If it's not the pet therapy, medication management, snack cart, or other scheduled thing, it's someone popping in to ask mom if she'd like to go to dinner or an activity, or simply if she needs anything. It's clear Aegis takes pride in its facility. It's well-maintained and concerns are promptly addressed. If the person who'd normally take care of it is out, someone will be there to try to fill in. The difference is night and day from the last place. For example, at the prior facility, we were only able to arrange transportation successfully about three times. The remaining fifty or so times, they ignored us or gave excuses. At Aegis, I had a last minute request to get mom a ride to the dentist and their response was "Don't worry about it. We'll make it work!" The grounds are well-kept and the facility is clean. Plus there's an adorable fluffy white dog that lives there and lots of times is just cruising around greeting folks. Aegis feels more like a giant shared house than a hospital, like some other places do. Many residents leave their doors open. It feels safe and I feel good knowing my mom is in such capable hands. Finally, they make extraordinary efforts to get to know you and your whole family. Some staff actually take notes about conversations with residents and families in an effort to personalize every single experience. I don't know how, but Aegis seems to have perfected the art of residential care. I cannot thank them enough.
