The Blake by QSL Management

I visit there daily and would recommend highly. They recently changed the dining services giving it more of a restaurant type service with several more optional selections in the event you do not like part or all of what the regular menu is for that day. They all so serve 3 meals a day which when looking for a place I found the other places we looked at only serve 2.

My husband and I love Haywood Estates so much we joked about retiring there! The downside is it's financially not a great option for people who aren't independent. They do contract out caregivers, but unfortunately that gets expensive for someone like my mom who needs a fair amount of help. So absolutely would recommend for anyone who is still independent or needs minimal care!

The whole process was very well done and executed. Very happy with the services available to me. My mother in law is very happy with her new living arrangements. She is very comfortable and we couldn’t be happier with Washington Commons.

I would rate a 5 for each. We have been very happy with Smoky Springs and have zero complaints!! The staff is very helpful and accommodating. They are all friendly and willing to help whenever needed! The room size is good for 1-2 people. The food is delicious and they offer many different activities. They have a shuttle that will take residents where they need to go as well.

Very clean, very friendly and very involved with everyone and everything. Two bed 1 bed and studios available to choose from. My mother was in a studio perfect size. Large for a studio. Large bathroom with stand alone shower with bench.

I really enjoy myself since I’ve been here. It’s everything that they advertise. It could be and I’ve been very comfortable here and the food is good and all the convenience. and real good entertainment.

my mom has had a incredible experience so far loves it. Great resident making her feel welcome along with friendly staff and well cooked meals. placing my mother in a home was a big concern for me and Barkley house has made it very easy.

It's is a very good place. I highly recommend it for loved ones. They are flexible and willing to learn alternative healthcare options for their longevity. They are very open for trying different therapeutic options for the elderly, so it is a very good place! The nursing staff have demonstrated their desire to learn and grow through various challenges when taking care of the elderly. The food is pretty good, but they serve deserts for every meal. Too much sugar isn't good for them, but I think they will be willing to grow in that area.

We picked them because of the accessible location, and the facility was absolutely incredible for the price.

We were very impressed with both the facilities and staff at Smoky Springs. [name removed] and the entire staff are extremely helpful and attentive to all the residents making everyone feel like one big happy family. After our initial visit, I knew this was the right place for my mother.

So far a big 5 for alllll! Everyone seems very helpful, engaged with the residents. And the facility is bright and welcoming. We would absolutely recommend The Blake community to other families who may need a place for their loved one

Now these are my scores, however my dad is the one that lives there and may say differently, but based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend Haywood Estates to other families who may need a place for their loved ones

I have lived at Smoky Springs for 2 years and it’s truly become home. The leadership is amazing, and I appreciate them all…[name removed], [name removed] and [name removed] are so helpful and truly care about us. It takes a lot of heart to lead and they have it here. I would recommend Smoky Springs to anyone. Be sure to contact [name removed] for a tour- you will love her!

I have been here for 5 months and I enjoy my experience extremely. Office staff is very nice and helps with all my issues whenever I need it. Food is good my apartment is spacious. Plenty of things to do to keep my mind active. Laundry rooms on every floor. Family is invited to spend time with me for meals. Residents are friendly and helpful. [name removed] is very helpful in extending her warmth to future residents. I love it here!

I am so grateful to have been referred to Fairmont Retirement community! My octogenarian mother has lived there almost two years, and she couldn't be happier. The team calls every resident by name, knows family members, and rapidly responds to any concerns with genuine concern. I've never experienced such sincerity in caring for residents, nor have I seen the incredible team work exhibited by management! The amenities included in the cost of the lease are abundant. I have no worries that my mother is safe and greatly cared for. If I could choose more than five stars, I certainly would! I highly recommend this center!

This is my 3rd retirement home and my favorite. You are a family member, not just a resident. When the lights in the city went out, the staff went door to door to check on us and escorted us to a lighted area with a generator. When the elevator failed, the staff paid firefighters to carry non walkers up and down the stairs while it was being fixed. It's a great place.

The people here are really nice from the staff to the residents. My mom loves that the housekeepers are 20+ year employees that really get to know the residents. They will even check on you if you don't make it to an event you usually attend (like a meal or bingo).

If you want peace of mind knowing that your loved one is safe and taken care of, this is the place. The staff makes my mom feel cherished. They call her by name and always greet her like she matters. She can now socialize with others. The facilities are beautiful and very clean; one would think it was a resort. The on-premise medical staff means that help is only a press of a button away. There are many activities daily so there is no reason why anyone would be bored. There is on-site physical therapy. There is piano bar, salon, library, chapel, activity room, pool table, coffee and ice cream bar, spacious deck,…too many to mention here. Residences are cleaned and bedding washed weekly by staff; laundry can either be done by the resident or for a fee by staff. Dining options include a daily special or order off the limited menu. Food could be a little more exciting but that will always be a complaint for people. This was a wise choice for my mom and I no longer worry about her safety.

The employee are nice and very professional. There prices are affordable and this a good place to bring your mother or father to live.

Reasonable rates. Very honest administration. They also reach out immediately if there is a concern. Generous sized apartments & elevated amenities!
