Another reviewer with a family member who eats in the dining room several times daily described disappointment with taste and variety for the cost.

Memory care training concerns appear
A couple of reviews raise concerns about Memory Care readiness.
Two reviews specifically criticize Memory Care training for dementia and Alzheimer’s care, including de-escalation and communication techniques tailored to residents’ needs. In both accounts, the authors also tie their concerns to broader breakdowns in medication management and communication. These comments stand apart from many other reviews that describe Memory Care staff as caring and well coordinated.

Pricing feels high for some families
Some families feel the overall value doesn’t match the cost.
A few reviews describe the community as expensive or not good value, even when the facility itself is described as attractive.

Pricing is also positioned as above county and state levels across unit types.
