    However, not all reviews were completely positive. One individual expressed dissatisfaction with the attention they received from the owners when addressing concerns about several issues. They also felt that activities were limited and more geared towards wheelchair-bound residents.

    Despite this negative feedback, most reviews emphasized how much Heritage Creek feels like home for its residents. The staff was consistently praised for being caring and professional while providing excellent care. Many reviewers commented on the delicious food served at the facility as well as its cleanliness.
