Merrill Gardens

The staff has been very helpful and respectful. The apartment size is good, just right for mom's needs. I would recommend them to others who are searching for senior living for their loved one.

I have a nice, big 2 bedroom apartment, with 2 bathrooms and lots of windows. It was repainted, got new flooring and new kitchen cabinets before I moved in. The bathroom fixtures are a bit dated, but clean and usable. Food is excellent, staff are kind and pleasant.

Room size was good. We had a 1 bedroom with balcony, large living space, kitchen, large bathroom and closet. They had a variety of planned a activities and many residents got together for games. Food was good but very repetitive. Staff was great and formed a good relationship with my mom. Administrators were sometimes hard to reach but were good to work with. Staff that cleaned the apartments were not great and only did surface clean. Overall, we felt very good about the facility and the care. We would go there again if needed.

The facilities are beautiful. I was introduced to employees as they passed by during the tour. Even spoke to the chef. It was very clean and quiet. Residents all had smiles on their faces and were addressed by name. Each of the rooms I was shown were spacious for the type of room. I was given a list of how the monthly rent is calculated which is appreciated. It was explained about the yearly increase and that you can have overnight guest for up to 5 days which is really nice to know.

The staff is well trained and friendly. Activities are appropriate and scheduled for multiple times every day. The rooms are a nice size and the facilities are very well maintained.

My dad’s time at the assisted living community was difficult because of his health condition. The staff were generally kind, open, and caring, and they made efforts to support him and keep him comfortable during a challenging period. I appreciate the compassion shown to him and our family in his final days.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff We enjoyed our lunch……. Great hospitality Room size was nice [name removed] and [name removed] spent a great deal of time offering support and advice I am close to making a decision of facility Many things to consider

People were very welcoming and nice there. We had a great talk and they had some good other options for me to consider. A lot of good insite and I so appreciated it.

My sister and I visited on several occasions. Each time, [name removed] greeted us with a smile and was always willing to sit down and answer our questions. Also, each time we visited, the residents also stopped us to chat. The facility is like walking into a nice hotel. After touring several other facilities, I always came back to Merrill Gardens for their nice and welcoming common areas, staff, and residents. Also, Merrill Gardens pricing was always little lower than other facilities which was great too!

My mom and dad moved into Truewood and the staff has been amazing. They are so helpful and caring, from the maintenance to the caregivers and the security that makes everyone is safe. Every time my mom needs something they are there to help. [name removed] was the person that contacted us and helped us so much. He has gone above and beyond to help me and my parents. I would recommend this place to anyone and ever to everyone.

The Truewood team has been wonderful - friendly, welcoming and incredibly helpful from the start. We were truly impressed with how well kept and inviting the community is. The pricing was affordable and includes 3 meals a day, cable, some transportation and a wide variety of activities, which really adds to the value. So far, my sister absolutely loves living here. It's comforting to know she's happy, engaged and well cared for. Highly recommend!!! My sister is still very very happy here.

I have been coming to Turners Rock for over 4 years now and I come to visit friends and dine with friends. I also now really enjoy volunteering with the activities department and love working with the people that I volunteer with at Turners Rock. The residents here have so many opportunities to get great care, great food and meet new friends.

Our knitting group has had the fabulous opportunity to meet in the Sky Lounge at Merrill Gardens at Wright Park. The facility is beautiful. The staff are warm and friendly. The Sky Lounge has a stunning view of Commencement Bay! Located in the heart of Stadium District the location is outstanding. If you are looking for yourself or a loved one you need to check this place out.

My sister was in Assisted Living and is currently in the Memory Care Unit at Mission Ridge. The atmosphere is very welcoming and warm. The staff are great. My sister has been through a journey and everyone has been so kind to her through her latest transition to Memory Care. I would highly recommend Mission Ridge.

Turners Rock is an amazing place!! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. It truly feels like coming home. The atmosphere and activities can not be beat!! I love volunteering at the Happy Hour. We have a great crew. The residents tell us living here is like living on a cruise ship. I could not agree more and I highly recommend.

The staff and the care given here at Turners Rock is top notch. It feels like home for most of them. The food and activities keep all of the residents engaged. Its the place to be. I volunteer weekly here because my mom used to live here and I really enjoy coming back into the community to see all these friendly faces.

I visit 2 friends there regularly and both have nothing but positive comments on the staff and the facility. My experience has been very positive as I support my friends. Everyone is willing to go the extra mile with all of the residents and it makes a difference. The facility appears to be very clean and the staff are all very supportive.

staff is friendly apartment size is very adequate, clean he likes the food and the food schedule cable television is included my father is happy

After being my husband's full-time caregiver for several years, I knew a change in lifestyle was imminent. I moved to Merrill Gardens at Wright Park to have the security and comfort of knowing others were nearby. Following my husband’s passing in 2025, I chose to stay. The staff here are genuinely kind, helpful, and caring. The food and dining staff are exceptional during daily dining, holiday buffets, and special events. Additionally, the building is beautiful and well-maintained by patient maintenance and housekeeping teams. The water and mountain views, along with the sunrises and sunsets, are stunning. Wright Park, located just across the street, offers safe walking and entertaining events through the Tacoma Parks Department. Whether you are looking for independent living, assisted living, or memory care, Merrill Gardens at Wright Park does not disappoint.

Merrill Gardens at Wright Park is a top-notch facility where you can trust your loved ones to be cared for. I moved my mother in 18 months ago and both of us have been nothing but happy. The building is beautiful and clean. It doesn't have a shade of 'old-folks-home'. The staff as well as residents are all so nice. I think they like being there too! The food is great and they even have an amazing, roof top sky terrace where extended family can gather by reservation. I recommend it to all my friends whose parents may be approaching need for assistance but want to live independently.
