Everything my 90+ parents were looking for.

Everyone including residents were very welcoming and had only good things to say. By far the most affordable and had the most amenities. This is not the typical (what we might expect) nursing home. Riverstone is more of a resort style community where everything is included. Similar to an all inclusive resort/cruise ship.

Mom is so happy here

5s across the board! Everyone is so friendly - staff and residents. Mom is very involved in activities. Meals are fantastic (especially the salad bar). Ability to ask for something off-menu is a plus. Chef's pantry is great for a quick sandwich if Mom isn't hungry at meal time or is tired and plans to eat at home instead of the dining room. It is more expensive than her previous location, but well worth it when you consider the amenities/activities and that my Mom is so happy there!

Beautiful place to live

Beautiful scenic area. Not on travel street. Spacious rooms and closets. Very close to shopping area. Wonderful eating places close by. Ten minutes from St Luke's North Hospital. Perfect place to live.

Management has met our needs quite well, and in a timely fashion. The chef and dining room staff prepare and serve a variety of good food, in a friendly and sanitary manner. As to the concierge-if a resident is bored-it is their own choice. The residents are friendly and respectful of others. We are please to this home!

I made the right choice!

I spent 8 months looking for the right retirement home for me. I visited 9 locations in the area and found the perfect place for me. The staff is outstanding! The food is wonderful because of the head chef. The dining room is clean and beautiful because the dining room supervisor. The activities are outstanding due to the hard work of the lifestyle director and well attended by the residents. We have live-in managers that are always available, listen and work hard to meet the residents wishes. The wonderful concierges are quick to fill our requests. Our Sr. Living Consultant was so helpful from the beginning and the reason I decided to live here because she took so much time to answer all of my questions and introduce me to residents and staff. I am happy and at home here.

LOVE Riverstone!

Riverstone is welcoming. I wanted to move here after talking to [name removed] once while in Arizona. It felt like home after talking to her! [name removed] knows each resident by name as do all the staff. The staff and residents both have welcomed me very much. This has made my transition here so nice and very easy!
