Merrill Gardens

When we were first moving in, there were some miscommunications, and a few issues with paperwork, but I think it's because Merrill Gardens is so new. After move in, everything has been very smooth. The staff is kind, caring and attentive, and the atmosphere is really positive. The food is top of the line, and they have such high standards. They only use fresh foods, and they have a great menu for the residents. They also have happy hour every day, a pool, tai chi in the mornings, outings, and live entertainment. The place is very clean, and I feel my loved one is very happy here. I would absolutely recommend Merrill Gardens

Legacy at Bear Creek has a wonderful atmosphere and incredibly friendly staff. The front desk staff are spectacular! I look forward to all of the family events. So much fun to attend with my mom!

I looked at several wonderful communities before choosing Merrill Gardens I felt right at home when I walked in and they let me visit 2 full days to see if it was a good fit for me. They have a weekly town hall meetings to listen to our needs and wants. There are tons of activities daily I have been asked to be on the Library committee, there's dominoes, nightly movies and lots more just so nice to have an independent active lifestyle. They come in weekly to clean and the staff is just so friendly and helpful. The food is great with weekly menus you receive on Sundays. They have a garden that they use for our food and a beautiful rose garden to sit and enjoy. I've made so many friends and would recommend this to anybody.

Amazing community. I love the mixed community feel of this location.

Merrill Gardens has been very positive so far for my father. The place is brand new, only 6 or 7 months old, and they work very hard to keep up the new appearance. The grounds and the inside are kept very tidy. The meals are great, the staff is friendly and accommodating, and they have plenty of activities to keep residents busy like arts, crafts, a movie theatre, and a van for off campus trips. It is also centrally located and just a five minute walk from places like the drugstore and the library. My father really likes that. I’d definitely recommend the community to others.

I find everyone but particularly [Removed], to be accessible and genuinely interested in the residents. It is a pleasure to live here.

I find that the community is a wonderful and perfect place. I would tell anyone to feel free to go there and take your parents to see the community. I believe the staff want to see happy residents.

This looked like a fabulous community when I toured it. The people I met were nice. This community does have some nice common areas and they seem to offer some nice activities. This community was a little more expensive than what we were looking for.

We liked this community when we visited. This is a larger community with several buildings and several stories high. The community is beautiful and the people we met were really nice. This community is a little more expensive than we were looking for.

everyone friendly, food is good, cleaning people friendly do a good job & much more. Too soon to say much more.

My father is doing well since his move into Sheldon Park. They try 3 times 3 people to encourage their residents to join activities and interact. The medical technicians are very on top, they are watching my father constantly and call me with any concerns. I also like that they have lectures and comedy acts, it is kind of interesting. I really like the facility and I like the openness. If you have a concern, they don't get offended. I would like the incontinent care to be tighter. The facility is always clean. I am assuming the staff are paid well and treated well here because they genuinely seem like they enjoy being there and really care about the residents, it has been a very good experience.

It had been a slow adjustment process for my mother with her move to this community. However I do feel we are starting to make some progress. I'am satisfied with her move to this community, it is a nice place. The staff have been attentive, and responsive to any concern I have had. The meals are good for the most part. There are plenty of activities available for the residents. Everything is working out well, and I would recommend this community.

Just started my search for help for my parents; I was immediately impressed with the friendly staff and pleasant environment. The residents sitting in the lobby looked happy and even answered some of my questions. I did not have an appointment and they still took the time to give me a tour and offered lunch.

We were all set to move my loved one into Siena Hills, but we found another community that fit her better. I do not remember much details but I remember it was very nice and we would have definitely gone with them If I had not found the new community.

Siena Hills was actually our first choice. We preferred it over the community that we chose for my loved one, but they could not accommodate his level of care. The facility was clean and very nicely set up.

Mom has been a resident of the Syringa Memory Care unit of Willow Park for 3 1/2 years now. Very pleased with the medical oversight provided to all residents as well as solid recommendations for additional services such as physical therapy, speech therapy, etc. [Removed] is an outstanding nurse, always completely focused on the well being of those in his care and it shows. [Removed] does an amazing job lining up stimulating, fun activities to meet the needs of all residents, regardless of their abilities. The kitchen routinely turns out nutritious, home cooked meals and provided numerous special dining occasions for every holiday. Food quality is top notch. My mom's quality of life has increased immeasurably. She is always clean, well dressed and I've witnessed how much she enjoys the wide variety of activities and outings. She has gone from living alone and rarely going out to a very active life with great friends. The staff has truly enriched her life and provided me with great peace of mind. This is my second experience, also having had my mother in law in the assisted living area until her passing. Such a great feeling knowing your loved one is surrounded by such loving people and capable staff. Thank you Willow Park.

I couldn't pick a better place for my loved one. I love how the staff treat the residents like family.

The Merrill Gardens was a very nice place. The staff was very attentive and responsive. They have continued to follow up with me and answer any questions I have. The reason why we did not choose it was because they did not have a memory care unit.

This is a pretty nice place. It is better for my parents, they have a lot of staff there helping my parents. I like the way it is set up and my parents can pick their own schedule. The meals are good with enough variety. The neighborhood streets are wide and simple for my dad to drive through. When I toured, they took you right in like a guest. We did what everybody else was doing. It was more friendlier and warmer and they are looking out for the family. Once we were there we knew it was the one.

The Village is clean and comfortable. The staff is willing to work with you and your loved one. Memory care patients are carefully monitored and adjustments are made to accommodate the patients.
