My parents, unfortunately, were both experiencing health issues when we made the decision to move…read morethem up here from North Carolina to be closer to me. I visited several Independent Living homes and the Village was by far the best. It's set on top of a hill overlooking Waterman lake which is breathtaking from spring through fall. The facility is immaculate and the staff goes out of their way to make sure the residents have the resources they need. One of the first things I noticed when my parents moved in was how friendly and welcoming the other residents are. You can tell people enjoy being there, and my parents did too for their short time there. Their health deteriorated faster than any of us expected and they both needed to be moved quickly into the nursing home. If you meet Moriah, the general manager, (or house mom as my parents called her), she is always dressed to the nines with flawless make-up and four inch heels. When my dad needed to be moved to the nursing home, I noticed she had swapped out her skirt and heels for jeans and sneakers. She and two of the facility nurses pushed my dad down to the nursing home in a rolling recliner to make sure he could be moved comfortably and safely. She did the same for my mom when it was her turn. Moriah set-up the move in days and pushed my mom's wheelchair, this time in her heels, to her new room. If my parents had still been in North Carolina when their health crashed, or in a less accommodating facility, I don't know what I would have done. Every staff member in that place from the top to the bottom did what they needed to do to take care of my parents, and that is an invaluable service when you are dealing with aging loved ones.

The Highlands is an assisted-living facility populated by two groups of residents: a…read morehigh-functioning group, some of whom may need medical/personal. attention at some point but are in most respects independent, a wide range of less capable residents who eat most meals in the dining room, and a group who eat and stay in their rooms most of the time. There is also a large group in a segregated floor for those with dementia and memory loss. Very few if any of the residents are intellectually intact. The staff are polite and competent, some are excellent and dedicated, but turnover and absenteeism are high. Assisted showers are possible but the standard is at most once a week. The food is not the worst institutional fare I have ever had, but when combined with poor service and a toxic social atmosphere in the dining room the result is very poor. There have been at least a dozen cooks in my time, and none of them were capable of cooking a Brussels sprout . Waitstaff were nice but oblivious and untrained. The facility is clean and quiet .

From the moment she moved in, she was surrounded by warmth, friendship, and opportunity. The grounds are absolutely beautiful -- especially the peaceful wooded area in the back, where she enjoyed walking and spending quiet time in nature. Inside, the gathering spaces are inviting and thoughtfully designed, making it easy for residents to connect, relax, and feel at home. One of the things she appreciated most was how intellectually and socially engaging life at Laurelmead is. She looked forward to the regular educational talks, musical performances, movie nights, and the many activities that kept each week interesting and fulfilling. There was always something to enjoy, but never any pressure -- just a wonderful sense of community. The dining experience was another highlight. The dining room is lovely, and she genuinely enjoyed the wide variety of menu choices and the quality of the meals. Dining became a social event she looked forward to every day. Most importantly, she made deep and lasting friendships there. Laurelmead gave her not just a place to live, but a vibrant community where she felt connected, stimulated, and happy. Our family is so grateful for the caring environment and the joyful years she experienced at Laurelmead. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone considering independent living for themselves or a loved one.

It's a beautiful facility and very comfortable. I would have given five stars had it not been for the food. People eat three meals a day 7 days a week here. The menu hasn't really been substantially changed in two years, maybe more. Although the service staff is amazing, the food... sucks. I mean whoever is running the purchasing division just gave up. Profits before quality! Even among the aged residents, it's a joke Food is really all these wealthy folks can look forward to. They're paying a small fortune to be here and the least Atria could do is offer delicious high quality food with a seasonal menu. The food is bad enough to not send your loved ones to live here. I am sure it's a corporate thing, not because of the staff or local management. Give the resident what they pay for...great food and I'll give you FIVE stars. Update: They have a new F and B Director who seems to be very interested n fixing the problems with the food.
