Merrill Gardens

I think I already reviewed Truewood. I was really impressed with the whole experience. The size of the facility, smaller and in a peaceful community. The food was great, the people were friendly, and esprcially [name removed] who took me on the tour. I plan to retour with some family soon. I plan to put my house up for sale after the first of the year.

Very pleasant experience. Staff very pleasant. Facility was nice and very clean. Residents looked happy.

Employees were very friendly. Mom and I were invited for lunch with the administrator. Residents were really happy. Community was immaculately clean and grounds maintained nicely. Cost is reasonable. Apartments are spacious.

I was very impressed with Merrill Gardens. Lovely atmosphere and friendly workers and residents. They had a dog show and lovely lunch. The residence were very friendly and fun. Merrill Gardens is at the top of my list for a senior residence. I am just not ready for that move.

My husband moved into Assisted living at Turners Rock in April of 2026 after having a stroke. We toured other communities in the area but Turners Rock felt like home. The staff was friendly and the facilities were clean. The food choices are by far, better than any other place we looked at. The health care staff are helpful and truly care about the residents. Daily activities are fun and engaging.

Very kind, wonderful people always willing to help. My husband and I have lived here for over 2 years and love it!

I love the convenience of everything here. The food is good, the people are great. I've made a lot of wonderful friends. The activities and entertainment keep me busy. All the staff are great! If you ever want or need anything they are always willing to help. I highly recommend Mission Ridge.

[name removed] and I have lived here for two years now. My sister has lived in memory care for twenty-three months. This is a wonderful place. The best thing about it is the staff. Every staff member wants to work here. The care we get is first-rate. My sister is thriving. The food is plentiful, and everything is kept clean. It is a joy to live here. I sometimes wish I could complain about something, but I can't.

The food is good here. They provide transportation to doctor visits which is nice. The great room is always busy. I love it here! Everybody is very helpful with any questions. I’ve met a lot of wonderful people here.

Well I won’t be moving anytime soon. I am here to stay! I enjoy the friendly people. And everyone is very helpful and gives you attention. And I especially like the managers. There could be a fee more activities.

Mission Ridge provides a safe, happy environment for its residents. Exceptional staff support makes this place the greatest. I would recommend Mission Ridge as a great place to retire and to call your new home!

Very good visit learned a lot [name removed] answered all our questions. We will make arrangements with [name removed] to go to lunch some day with residents. I'm leaning the way this this might be where I go. Thank you for arranging the visit

Nice place and will feel comfortable in placing mom in their memory care. We've been on their wait list for 2+ years. Don't delay get your name on the list if you feel this is the way you want to handle life's challenges.

Truewood is a wonderful, caring place for your loved ones! The staff is compassionate and caring and very attentive to the needs of the residents that live there. Plus, the dining room has wonderful food and choices at all of the meal times. Overall I would highly recommend the facility to anyone looking for assisted living accommodations. You will not be disappointed!

The facility is clean and the staff is knowledgeable and kind. The resident is given great value for the price per month. They make the residence feel at home.

When I entered the community of Merrill Gardens Hillsboro, I immediately felt at home. I was warmly greeted by [name removed] at the Front Desk and [name removed] , who would tour me around the facility. It was then, and continues to be, a nurturing and friendly atmosphere, and every staff member is outstanding. This is my “forever” home.

Absolutely the nicest staff. This beautiful facility was so clean, the air wasn't unnatural smelling. Great activities for all to enjoy. Best place for our Mom in time down the road.

I've lived at Mission Ridge for almost 3 years and I love it here. The people are all really nice and the food is wonderful! I would highly recommend it and know anyone who lives here will be happy.

My mom is in a studio apartment with a huge closet and her own laundry facilities on the 6th floor with a fantastic view of both Mt. Ranier and Commencement Bay. The staff has been very supportive and all know her by her first name. She likes the food and finds the other residents friendly and inviting. She engages in activities and has thanked my sister and I several times for finding such a wonderful place for her to live. They have daily exercise classes, games and craft activities, trips into town, weekly entertainment. The list goes on and on. We think it is of exceptional value. She is much happier here than she would have been if she had continued to live in her own home. She is happy at Merrill Gardens at Wright Park and the family is also happy that she is there.

My mom was one of the first to settle in the newly developed facility. She just turned 95 and the staff, as usual, was helpful, courteous, and "above and beyond" in making it successful for her. She absolutely loves living there... from the manager, [name removed], to the activities director, [name removed], and all those who serve in dining and cleaning. They are respectful, kind, and watchful. I'm so glad after five years that my mom is surrounded by such a supportive community.
