You can spend days and weeks looking for the right place for an elderly friend or relative, but once you look at Tockwotton, the choice is obvious. Challenging perhaps on pricing depending on one's means, but it's worth it to me to place my mom in an environment that makes her WANT to live (and eat and engage) and not have her in a 'cost-effective' facility the makes her NOT want to live. And Michael and Monica have been outstanding. We are just starting the process and are hoping it all works out. But bottom line is, if she ends up somewhere else, Tockwotton was our first (and really only) choice. Anything else will be second and not what we hoped for. Tim

My mother truly loved her time at Laurelmead Independent Living, and as her daughter, I couldn't…read morehave asked for a more welcoming or enriching community for her. 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.

I have lived here for 11 years and I have been at two other Assisted Living facilities prior to…read moremoving to Autumn Villa. The type of care is outstanding. They are a family operated facility and staff and administrators and nurses are also very knowledgeable and helpful with any issues you may have. It is the cleanest facility I have been to. Meals are excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to have a parent come and take a tour. They take several forms of payment including Social Security. They have med technicians that distribute your medications so you don't need to remember to take them. There have 24 rooms with 2 to a room usually. I am happy that they found me in a rehab facility after an extended hospital stay and they interviewed me and took me in.

It's clean, the staff is caring and the food is decent. I would put my mom here if she was still alive. The only drawback is it's not on a bus route but we have our own 14 passenger bus and we go out often to shop and have other trips. Logisticare is on site and they provide free transportation to doctor's appointments. It's a nice place to live.

For an assisted living, I was really impressed! I've toured a few places. & this was by far the…read morebest I've seen. We transferred my dad from another assisted living to St. Elizabeth's a little over a month ago. Every time I come here, the staff is always smiling & friendly, the place is clean, & my dad looks well cared for. Administration is very helpful as well & very prompt handling any concerns. My dad likes the food too, which is great! He barely ate at the last place because the food was terrible. The building is in the old side. Seems to be a bit of delay transitioning from heat to AC when the weather warms up, but I'm told this is common for most facilities. It's been maintained well, but the windows definitely need to be replaced. Besides that, my dad's only complaint so far is the room size, but he opted for the smaller room & it IS bigger that the room he had at the other place; larger ones are available. The have a lot of places for family to gather. They also have 2 kitchens the residents can use to cook/entertain, a small gym-like room, a chapel, snack area, 2 sunrooms, a salon, & lots of TVs if residents want to get out of their rooms. And other rooms that I know I'm forgetting. Very happy so far.

As far as housekeeping every time I am here someone is cleaning something. The place is immaculate. It's as beautiful as a hotel with an old country feel. I've been told by residents that reside here that the food is fantastic, and I would have to say they're right. If you come here around any mealtimes you will be greeted by tempting aromas. They're always doing something to keep they're residents engaged. There's always activities, outings, and people coming to perform. They even have someone bring baby goats. But the most important thing is people are happy here and they feel safe.

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.

Since she is the first person one usually sees when they enter your lovely facility or speak to on the telephone, she has a great responsibility to portray Victoria Court in the best light. She does an extremely exemplary job in her role. From my first introduction to her, I was impressed by her demeanor, which was so kind, genuine, and patient. I immediately felt reassured that our mother was in good hands. I am beyond touched by her ability to embrace and welcome everyone who approaches her, including the residents, as well as, visitors and staff. She is truly a beautiful and pure soul! I hope and pray that Anna will always be a constant at Victoria Court. I also want to commend the entire staff for the excellent care our mother receives each and every day. They are a dedicated group who go above and beyond to guarantee our mother's care is exceptional. Thank you to each and every one of you!
