The Overlook is a little bit of everything. They go from assisted right up to the end. My mother had a lot of friends that have gone there and I went there for a tour. The common spaces were very modern and up-to-date. There were lots of people being entertained. The apartments were very big and very roomy. I liked it there, but it's a giant place. The staff was very good and very accommodating. The facility was well-kept.

I cannot say enough about how my mother was treated while in the dementia unit at Overlook.
The staff was beyond exceptional.
From the moment you walk into the doors you are greeted by a receptionist who will direct you to where you need to go.
The entire staff is friendly and caring to the visitors but treats the patients as if they were their own relatives.
This place does not have that horrible smell that you find in many other nursing homes, and is kept very clean.
I loved the fact my mom had her own room.
Highly recommended.

I need to update/delete my last review of this place.
My mother was accepted into the Dementia unit since my last review, and God had answered my prayers! She couldn't of been in a better place when she past.
I cant rave enough to everyone on how terrific this place treated not only my mother, but all the residents living in the dementia unit. Not once did I see any staff treat the patients like they were nothing but a paycheck. They constantly sat and talk to the patients as if they were their own parents.
What a true blessing it was to have her placed there, even if it was a short time.

The Overlook wasn’t that welcoming. There was nothing outstanding about it. The staff was not very personable. She seemed like she was in a rush even though we had an appointment. I was so unimpressed with it. I don’t recall any amenities. They just weren’t nice. The room they took me to smelled weird, but they had just cleaned it, so that’s probably why. The Overlook did not have a welcoming feel about it. They need more personable skills.

The Overlook Community has a wonderful facility. It was clean and the rooms were large enough for one. One draw back is there was no kitchenette in the room.
The pool was a big hit with my 92 year old father.

Fieldstone at The Overlook is a brand new facility, and it was built specifically for its purpose; assisted-living, and memory care. It wasn’t retrofitted. The staff is very conscientious, and friendly. There is somebody there all the time with my mother; which is what you needed. There’s enough staff for the number of people they have. They only have between twelve, and fourteen people. The staff isn’t spread in. She has been there almost two months.
She had a large room; I’d say it’s probably sixteen-by-sixteen feet. She is able to have a couple of chairs, a television stand, and she’s got a double bed. The dining setup is a large kitchen area with tables of four, and the food is good. They have regular beverage, and snack times. They have a person that plays the guitar, and sing that comes in once a week. They have an artist that comes in once a week, a massage therapist once a week, and does chair massage type thing.
They played bingo, chair exercises, there’s always puzzles available, and coloring books. They have music practically every day. They listen to music of their era practically the entire day in the public area. They have a very nicely setup living room. I can’t say that I observed anything that they need to improve on. I have had a very good experience.

The Overlook wasn’t as new as the other facility I visited, but it did have the advantage of being able to go from assisted living to nursing care. It is all in one facility, so that’s good. The rooms were of a good size and could be set up however you wanted to set them up, which I thought was a good thing. They have patios, which was also good. The staff was very nice. They have lots of things that you can do, like visiting the library and playing games.
