Newly Renovated

This community was very nice we liked it.Since it was just recently renovated everything was new and clean very updated. On the tour, the staff was helpful and nice. My husband took time to talk to the residents and any of their family members to get a sense as to how they liked living here and everyone seemed to agree it was a good place. They seem to offer quite a few activities to keep the residents busy.

Didn't meet my needs; too large and I think my mom would get lost. The assisted-living bedrooms were nice and I was impressed by their dining area (2 entree options at meals and very flexible dining hours). Toured the Memory Care secured area, which my mom might eventually need, and that area felt depressing.

Considering the community is far away and it was not as nice looking, this was not the right fit. From the outside it looked like a dungeon but when you got into the building it looked nice. I noticed that it seemed crowded and I was not connecting with the atmosphere.

Overall Pleased with My Move

So far I'am pretty pleased with my move to this community. It is a nice community. I would suggest that they have some type of orientation to the community. Other than that issue everything seems to be working out well. I've met a nice residents that are willing to show me around the community. It is a well-kept community. For the most part they do a good job with the cleanliness. I'am still getting adjusted to the routine around the community, but overall I would recommend this community.

The assisted living building was beautiful!

When I toured Heathers Manor, I thought it was very nice. It was much nicer than the independent living building. The reason I did not chose this community was because I was looking for a place that had independent and assisted living in the same building.

Not a good fit...

AlmaVia was a nice facility, but they were not for what we were looking for. They could accommodate one but not the other. We wanted my aunt and uncle to stay together as of we chose this community they would have to separate them because of their different levels of care.

I had a nice view of the community. I got to see empty apartments and met the people there. The apartments were nice but not as huge as I wanted. When I came for a tour I got the feeling I was buying a used car and the staff were more interested in the sales than me.

It is fantastic the environment suit my mom very well. It's nice and well taken care of and they have a bunch of activities going on all the time in the great room. We like the nice indoor pool that is heated open to family members. The family can come to swim especially since being in Minnesota. The staff are welcoming every time we visit.
