Too In The City. Not Enoug...

Aparments are the right size
reviewed on: 07/09/2013 by TerryI am really enjoying being here at Forest Ridge. The food is wonderful and just taste very good. I only have the noon meal and cook the rest of my meal in my apartment, but it is always a good meal they provide. The apartments are the right size for me they are not too big but not too small. I am really enjoying living here and would recommend it to anyone.
Great Activities
reviewed on: 11/11/2013 by Healthcare ProfessionalIt's wonderful. I have been there several times. The atmosphere is great. She has a physical handicap but she is in independent living, and she has her own apartment. There are a lot of activities like cards, Wii bowling, etc. There is a big spacey area that everyone can get together an do activities.
It's clean and the staff is friendly.
reviewed on: 08/14/2015 by AnonymousIt's clean and the staff is friendly. They offer a catering service for food. If they added on any more things, a kitchen would be nice, since it's getting bigger and bigger. They could add a few more activities. It's affordable for someone that has a fixed income. I really appreciate that they have a chapel onsite, and offering a spiritual aspect to the community. They have services for different faiths. When I walked in it was an answer to my prayers.
The place was awesome, it's fantastic!
reviewed on: 01/10/2014 by Linda CefaluThe place was awesome, it's fantastic! It is an absolutely wonderful place. The place is extremely clean and at least twice a month they provide transportation to and from outings. She didn't want to go there but she has adjusted very well. They are all in one building the laundry and cafeteria, her hairdresser is in the same building, even a little store inside. She doesn't have to leave the building to do any of her day to day things and this takes a huge weight off of my shoulders. Mary the manager there is very quick to let me know what's going on with her. We love it! I would move there myself one day.
