Five star all around
reviewed on: 05/28/2013 by A happy customerWe chose the Highlands because of it's location, it's close to family members. Also, because of ratings given above - it's five star all around.
Availability right away!
reviewed on: 02/20/2014 by AmieFThe staff at Highlands was very nice. The staff was friendly. I was unable to see what activities were offered. What I liked the most about Highlands is that I knew there would be a spot in that community when I needed instead of finding out two weeks prior if there would be availability for a respite.
Very Happy New Resident
reviewed on: 07/18/2013 by Happy New ResidentOverall at least a four. I'd give them a five for cleanliness. They've just done an extensive remodel. I couldn't say much more, I just moved in a couple of weeks ago. I've been in pool exercises twice a week, which is what I was looking for. They have a very good system for taking us shopping to local grocery stores, which I find is excellent.
Only approved for 1 bedroom...
