All around great place

The staff gave off a great first impression they have been so warm and caring to our loved one and family. The dining experience from what we can see looks great and our loved one says the food is good. For the value its great because he gets a lot for the money and based on our experience we would recommend Applewood Retirement them to other families.

Stiffed

Sapphire is permanently closed now. About a year ago, [name removed] moved out and his apartment there was immaculate and spotless. They would never respond to our requests and didn't refund [name removed]s $[removed] deposit.

You get what you pay for.

The touring and move-in process was absolutely excellent. They got me in same day when I was in a bind. If you need a place fast, they were great. But if you want something that's more long-term and cleaner, I would pay extra and go somewhere else. This was the cheapest place I could find, but you get what you pay for. The food is not that great, and they don't have many options for those with dietary restrictions. But the staff are all really nice there.

Wonderful Experience!!

My mother has recently moved into this community and so far we are pleased with the care that she is receiving from this place. The staff where very helpful upon move in and have taken the time to get to know her on a personal level. She is really liking her apartment and all of the amenities that it came with. Overall she is pleased and that is what is most important.

Applewoo Retirement

I enjoy living here very much. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. Also, all of the other tenants are lovely people. The staff works very hard to accommodate all of the tenants needs. They provide room service, have a van to take tenants where they need to go locally and are always there to give support and assistance whenever needed.

We Love It Here

We absolutely love it here, they are caring for us very well. Everybody has been very welcoming and kind. It is a very clean community, they keep the facility very nice. The staff has been great, they are always willing to help. They do offer great activities and nice food. I've had one problem and that are there is no covered parking. Other than that we love it here. I would recommend it.

Everyone was nice and it was clean, but just a little too casual.

Everyone was nice and it was clean, but just a little too casual. I saw people walking around in their pajamas and didn't want her to get in that habit.

Lots to offer for the price

The manager Lisa Wagner was very friendly and helpful, she is one of the reason we decided to move to this community. They offer a variety of services for the price they are charging. The location of the property is close to my family. We are very excited to move into the community. Overall it is just a very good community.
