overall a nice community

Since my mom moved in, she has seemed happier because of her interactions with the other residents. The staff also seem friendly. The few complaints that we have had are that the food and food service could both use improvement, and that the building is older. There have been some maintenance issues, such as the air conditioning being out for almost a week.

The care staff are just incredible. Not an easy job to care for elderly folks who may have mobility issues. The staff are tender, positive, and resilient. When you see other residents smiling, greeting each other, and talking, you know it is a true community. We've been very pleased.

Review for Cottonwood Creek

The medical/CNA staff at Cottonwood Creek are exemplary- efficient, patient, and kind. The meal area is spacious and the folks whom work there are efficient and always pleasant. The administrative staff are all available when requested. The morning concierge Sun- Wednesday is the absolute best there is and the lynchpin of the place

A very conscientious and friendly staff!

The facility is clean except when I've had to dump a few things out at the dumpster it needs to be cleaned up around the dumpster, it's pretty bad! Staff is very friendly and I think the quality of care is good. The administrative staff is very responsive and my mother-in-law of course enjoys the restaurant experience and the food qualities very good. She's also in a knitting group What She Likes I hope she'll start doing more of the activities as there's lots for senior citizens to do there. And I think the value for the money is is good

Successful search for a wonderful assisted living.

We were fortunate to find an available unit at Cottonwood Creek, with the help of A Place For Mom. The facility is really nice, but the staff and all that the facility offers, is wonderful. The food is amazing!

Great caring community

I would recommend it. It is probably better suited for folks who need assistance rather than those who just want independent living.

A nice community

Everyone seemed very friendly and welcoming. The director there was particularly helpful and knowledgeable. The only issue we had, but it did get worked out was working with the nurse on her medications. There was a bit of disconnect there.

Great tour of Cottonwood Creek

I had a wonderful tour of Cottonwood Creek. The residents all look happy and the staff all said hello as we walked around. I loved the lovely ladies that greeted me on the outside benches. When the time is right we will move mom is here.

Cottonwood Creek has been my mothers home for a few years now. She has so many friends, enjoys outings and activities and the food is really good. I am comforted knowing she has care staff available when she needs extra help.

overall a nice community

My brother only spend six days at the Cottonwood Creek community. It just wasn't the right fit for him, we needed a higher level of care than what they were able to provide for him. However, based on our experience we would recommend the community to other families.
