Review for Walnut Grove Retirement Community

It's okay - had 3 managers and 4 temporary mgrs in less than 2 years - management could improve - above average workers except for maintenance.

Wonderful Experience

There are so many ways for her to interact with others without having to leave the facility yet she has her privacy when needed. The meals and dining as well as the activities gets a 5+. It's just a fantastic community. My mom is so happy.

great community

We really like that this community is in the same neighborhood that our loved one previously lived it so she was very familiar with it. So far she has had no complaints when it comes to the meals being served, and we would recommend this community to other families.

Great Community

The food could be hotter, I think they could use a new steam table. The food is good, the temperature just needs to be improved. I am comfortable and the community is very pleasant. Some of the activities available are bingo, family feud night, corn hole, movies, church services, card games, puzzles, and more for the residents to participate in. There is a beauty shop on site.

This community is nice but the location was an issue and I went with another community that was closer to my home. That was the main thing that made me go with another community.

Definitely a winner

We are very pleased with walnut Grove. Everybody here from the people who gave us the initial tour to everyone she sees on a daily basis is fantastic and have welcomed her with opened arms. They have incorporated her into anything and everything. They have soft serve ice cream that is available all day long and my mother in law absolutely loves that. We would definitely recommend them to others looking.

We toured this community and it was very nice. The community has a neighborhood feel to it but the parking was not the best. The pricing was higher than other communities in the area also.

A Nice Place

It is a decent place. They try to cooperate and do things for the residents. The food is good. Room sizes are good, the layout of the community is good. They have outdoor space. They have garages for residents. They have a bus to go to doctors' appointments and shopping.

Great Location

The food is not good. We have a new chef, things started off good but not really that good now. It has really changed in the last few years. They are taking folks with higher care needs. This is an Independent community and it feels more like Assisted Living. I like the staff. I like the layout.I have a deck on my unit. The location is wonderful, close to everything.

I feel good knowing mom has support

My mom moved from her single home of 50 years to her apt 3 months ago. It took time for her to settle in. She is keeping much more engaged with all the activities. She is eating much better than she was when living alone. Housekeeping being provided is huge for her. Her being able to keep her dogs was a major consideration. All the onsite amenities have made her life easier. A great place that has improved my mom's life. I highly recommend Walnut Grove Retirement Community.

A First Class Establishment

I cannot say enough about what a sensational job [Removed] are doing at Walnut Grove. They are caring, professional, and excellent communicators. My loved one's dementia was unfortunately worsened when we had to move her from her home, but [Removed] went above and beyond the call of duty seeing to it that she was safe. She was so good at assisting us in moving my loved one out of her house. Walnut Grove was head and shoulders above the other communities we toured, and I would enthusiastically recommend the community to anyone. It is a first class establishment.

My Dad is very happy here

Dad loves it here and he’s adjusting well. The building is kind of set up like a cruise ship, each floor is open to the bottom level, and it feels like you’re on a vacation. Everyone is friendly and welcoming the second you walk in the door. There are lots of activities for him to participate in like bingo, blackjack, and even bean bag baseball. There are tons of lively people to socialize with and he’s already made a lot of friends, which is great. The facility is kept very clean and housekeeping comes by once a week to dust, vacuum, and clean the bathroom. There’s even a concierge that will bring Dad his car if he asks them to and he has his own garage. Overall, I would definitely recommend them.

A great place to look at

This was one of the best communities we visited. The people I met were friendly and helpful. They seem to offer a lot of great activities and amenities. This community had some rules regarding smoking and they would not work for my loved one.
