The Best Choice for Independent Living

Overall experience is extremely positive. It changed my mother's life. She was living alone, lonely and although we did our best to take her places and care for her, living alone wasn't good for her. We found CG and all immediately fell in love with it. My mother has been there for about a year and a half now. She is very involved with activities, has made many "dear friends" and is healthier and happier than we can remember. She is always busy - when she chooses to be. Has quiet time when she chooses to. CG is immaculate. The facility is always festive, bright, sunny and gleaming. The landscaping is amazing. Very nice. Always refreshing plants and flowers. Her in-room housekeeping is consistent. She loves her house cleaner who is thorough and comes as often as needed. The staff that we have dealt with are very engaging, hard-working, responsive and caring. My mother doesn't need a lot of medical care. Knock on wood. But her apartment is set up with all the safety tools available to her if needed. The meals are healthy and plentiful. Good selection. She eats what she wants when she wants, which is typically once per day. The waitstaff are pleasant. Always clean tables with fresh tablecloths and flowers. The dining experience is positive and her main social interaction. On the rare occasion that she has asked to take food in her room, they accommodated her with a nice big bag of food to be picked up or delivered. For holidays, they offer big spreads for family visits. Other family members attended and were impressed by these dining experiences. There are always activities! They announce via intercom, letters, posting on walls and elevators. They offer everything from field trips to crafts, bingo, trivia, musical performances, holiday fun, book groups and exercise class. She does exercise class daily and will partake in others that interest her as they come up. As a Catholic, she enjoys a weekly virtual mass and also weekly communion. Huge deal for her. Overall value. My mother is very budget conscious but believes that CG offers a lot for the money. She has a top floor unit with a huge balcony overlooking gardens. She knows she has the best real estate there! I have heard family members say that this is the best decision we have ever made! I agree. I was involved with meting with facilities and researching costs and found that for an independent living facility, CG offered the best amenities at a competitive rate.

Nice People, Great Facility-Wish the Food was Consistent

The people that live there are for the most part very friendly, supportive, and welcoming. They have had occasional management turnover which at times is challenging. The facilities staff is terrific and very helpful. The food quality varies based on who is cooking.

Camellia Gardens Review

My father in law is very happy here at Camellia Gardens, so at the end of the day, it was definitely the right choice for him. But the chef has turned over 3 times and I was not keen on the cleanliness of the picnic restrooms and kitchen area. But again my father in law loves it and that is really all that matters.

Camellia Gardens had a feel of commercialism. I didn’t choose it because I didn’t feel the same personal attention that I got from the place we choose.

Checked all the boxes and more

We chose Camellia Gardens because of the convenient location to me so I can visit often. The facility itself is so new and aesthetically pleasing. Because of how it is built, there is an enormous plaza in front of it and has everything she could need which is a super plus. They have a variety of apartment sizes depending on what you need. The activities are plentiful and displayed well enough for anyone to see. I would definitely recommend to others looking.

Camellia Gardens great place for your loved ones

Our loved one has had no complaints so far, and due to covid the activities are very limited but we really appreciate the effort and energy they are still putting into them to keep the residents active and engaged.
