Resort Lifestyle Communities

My husband and I moved here about 3-1/2 years ago. Prior to our decision to move to Creek Valley, we had visited 8 other independent living communities in the St Louis area. Downsizing can be daunting, but after moving here, we knew that we had made the right decision at the right time. It is a great community with friendly and supportive "neighbors". We especially like being in a smaller, more home-like setting which gives us an opportunity to get to know folks. Opportunities for activities are endless and the staff is awesome. Yes, it is actually like being on a cruise ship (without the water, of course).

Been a resident at another senior facility and visited many others in the area. Palomino Gardens is the best value around. The dinning room staff is friendly and helpful and does much more than what is expected of them. Food is excellent. The salad bar is probably one of the best for a senior living facility. It has a good assortment of salad items. In addition to that fresh and preserved fruit is part of the salad bar service. The fruit and salad items are always fresh and have a first class presentation with the items always placed on ice. The house keeping staff does a very thorough job cleaning the rooms and kitchen and bathroom areas. Once a week bedding is changed and beds are made. They do a fine job keeping the halls and meeting rooms in tip top shape. They do this with a smile. Maintenance of the facility is great. Palomino Gardens has frequent entertainment. Pool table and ping pong is on the premises. Many guests enjoy playing cards and other games in the game room.

Variety in food, excursions, activities (cards, games, & puzzles). The concern for continuing good physical fitness includes Balance class, general exercises, Chair Yoga, Dance exercise, and our fitness center has several machines to continue improving our health rehab. Crafts and Musical participation are also encouraged. It is a friendly community and is welcoming to new residents. I wouldn't choose anywhere else to live.

I moved here five years ago and quickly felt right at home. Both residents and staff are relaxed and friendly. Residents are treated with caring and respect, and staff go out of their way to meet our needs. Activities are carefully planned and varied. Residents are encouraged to participate in planning or to start and lead a new group. The food here is excellent. I especially enjoy the delicious breakfasts. I am not always happy with the menu, but there are always alternative foods available. Kitchen staff are friendly and try to please us. I am very grateful to live in a safe and comfortable place where I can live in privacy but have friends and conveniences close at hand.

Choose Savanah Pines after touring six (6) other communities in Lincoln Nebraska. Upon walking in we were welcomed by other residents and knew this was a very friendly and welcoming place to live. Our daughter helped us packs up in Georgia and moved us to Lincoln. We love the managers and staff and can’t image living any where else.

We moved my mom in to Cahaba Ridge after my Dad passed away. She is surrounded by new friends who care about her and include her. The staff is amazing, they are always trying to help and make everyone feel at home. We are so happy mom is there and cannot recommend it highly enough!

We are very impressed with this community! My father lives there and couldn’t be happier. Everyone is so nice, the food is delicious & he felt right at home on day 1. The staff are wonderful & always organizes fun activities.

A good value for the money. There are many varied activities. The place really feels like a home. Most if not all of needs are met. Management does all they can to assist. It gives you a real opportunity to make new friends.

Very quite, friendly, food mostly good but to salty.

I’ve lived at Robinwood for more than two years and loved every day. I have made great friends here and feel like the staff are my family. There are so many things to do here and every day is exciting. We are all family. You should come join the family, too!

I would give a 5 to all questions. This place is really outstanding. Friendliness, food, soft music in the hallways, management support. Yes, I would recommend this community to other families.

Everyone including the residents have been helpful and very inviting during the process of moving into ROBINWOOD. There are plenty of activities to be involved in. It’s very clean, the meals are great. There is pretty much everything onsite that my aunt would need. She will be able to be involved in so much.

Keeping in mind that this is an independent retirement home. It is nicely equipped for retirement. Movie theater, exercise room, large library, general appeal is great and clean. Food service varies, great salad bar.There are for hire, options available for assisted care, I feel that they are limited and need improvement at the level we paid for. Current manager's are very helpful and do a nice job, but the facility is large and it can be a load at times I am sure. No place is without flaws, but this is a lovely option. I would personally live here.

My husband and I have lived at Glen Meadows for 2 years and love everything about it; our spacious apartment, the excellent food, friendly and helpful employees, variety of activities and wonderful new neighbors! We have so many opportunities to socialize. I so appreciate not having the problems and responsibilities of house, yard and garden upkeep; instead have a home with beautiful grounds and flowers to enjoy, can help or not. The RLC communities also have a tremendous travel program; travel to another community and stay in a one bedroom apartment with meals…free! We thank the Lord everyday we live at Glen Meadows!!

From the first hello by the young lady at the front desk ([name removed]), I felt like part of the community. I wasn’t a stranger, my name was in the welcome home sign by the welcome center and that’s exactly how we felt, welcome. Every detail is carefully thought of and the place smells amazing! [name removed] warmth made us feel like we were talking with a long time friend. The managers, were energetic and welcoming also! Knowing that they live on the property gave us some peace of mind. We just started our journey, and honestly our search is over! Carolina Pines is our choice!

Coronado Villa is the kind of place that gives its resident's children peace of mind. My parents moved into the Villa 8 years ago and immediately began to enjoy their clean, well-appointed apartment, meet new people (residents and staff) and participate in Coronado's fine dining experience. I remember being struck by the fact that the residents wore their nametags consistently so everyone could call each other by name. In 2021, my father passed away at home at the Villa and my Mom was immediately surrounded by a supportive group of staff and friends that knew my dad and checked on her daily. Mom continues to enjoy many special relationships and feels safe and secure calling Villa her home. Coronado's "manager couple" have been incredible in more ways than I can describe. I am so thankful Mom and Dad moved to the Villa when they were healthy and independent so they could enjoy all it has to offer.

It's a beautiful facility! Lots of fun activities, full of friendly people, and the staff is amazing. I've been here for 6 months and would highly recommend to anyone looking to live in a retirement community!

In [date removed], my Mom will be a resident there for two full years. The team is smiling patient and always helpful in all matters. The food is tasty, facility clean and a generally good value for our family.

Capital Oaks is a wonderful community. My mom has been here for several years. The staff is always friendly and helpful. There are activities for everyone and it's a great environment. I'm so happy we chose here for my mom!

After my beloved father passed in 2, my Mom said she had no interest in ever leaving her “starter home”. A few falls and one hip replacement later, she can’t stop thanking me for finding Chartiers Bend! She loves everything about it, but mostly the people. As a people person, being alone never suited her and I’ve seen her come back to life in her new environment. She not only takes advantage of the many activities like bingo and chair volleyball, but having her living at Chartiers Bend means that her Physical Therapy and Pharmacy are on site, saving me many trips per week. Being able to pay rent month to month eliminated our fears of locking in to something long term, and having all of her bills rolled in to one monthly payment certainly simplified everything. I had a wonderful feeling when touring Chartiers Bend and now I know why. From the warm smile at the front desk, to the managers, dining staff and everyone in between…Chartiers Bend is, as my Mom often says, “the best”.
