I toured the independent living side of Gold Country Retirement Center, but they also have transitional care if you need it. I liked the tour guide very much. She's been there for quite a number of years, and she was very pleasant and very nice. She has called a couple of times to follow up to see where I stand. I don't know how old the facility is, but it is definitely older than the other one we checked out. I didn't know who chose the carpeting, but it must have been a long time ago. It was a drawback. However, it was very well kept, had nice garden areas, and seating areas outdoors. I liked the floor plans. They even had a full kitchen, whereas most places do not. They had a dishwasher in them, and they were in the process of upgrading some of the rooms. The people that were at the counters that I passed by all made contact and welcomed me.

My parents are staying at the Gold Country Retirement Community. The apartments are not fancy, but nice and spacious. I don't have a lot of experience with the staff personally, but my mom said they are very good. The food's gone downhill, that's why we were thinking about moving him. They had a bus that would take them on field trips and shopping. They also have bingo, a pool, church services, and some more games.

My mother in law has lived in an Independent Living apartment at Gold Country for almost 10 years. She loves her small apartment and that she doesn't have to do housework or cook. She still raves about how much she enjoys the activities (on and off campus) and how much she loves the staff. We visit once a year and in the past have stayed in their guest rooms when they were available so we've eaten the same food and walked the same halls as those who live there. The facility has always been clean - except during renovations - and that is understandable. The dining room is beautiful and we really like their new, restaurant-style menu. Although I do wish we could convince her to move closer to family, she loves living at Gold Country and the relationships she's built with her neighbors and the staff. I love that they maintain a Facebook page. When your loved one is far away, being able to see them enjoying life eases some of the worry.

Gold Country Retirement Community was wonderful. The staff who toured me around was good. The inside was perfect. The dining room was big and had a good selection of delicious food. They had an exercise group, movies, and games.

Gold Country Retirement Center had varying degrees of assisted living. They had apartments where you could take your pets and senior activities. They drive you to shops and take field trips out to shows. They have three meals a day that you can eat cafeteria style. They will come and do your laundry. If you want to do pill administration or medical administration, you have to get help from an agency that works in conjunction with them because they do not do it there. The food looked extremely appetizing. It looked restaurant style and you could order off of a menu.

Gold Country is OK. My mom has been there for four years in the independent living, but she has personal care. She has a clean two-bedroom, two-bath apartment with a kitchen. They have outings, an exercise room, and church.

You walk into Gold Country Retirement and the floors are filthy. I wouldn't recommend anybody being in there. The staff was very helpful, and I thought they were fine, but I just wouldn't put anybody in there. The dining room floor was filthy, and that was the first place I walked into, so I wasn't too impressed. The bedrooms were a good size, but they only had a sink and a vanity area in them, no kitchenette or anything like that.

I think this was a great facility for aging adults. It offers a great variety of activities for the residents and visitors/families of residents. The facility also offers a great variety of nutritional meals for the residents.

Gold Country Retirement is a very compassionate and caring facility. It is obvious they really care about their residences. They maintain a positive attitude at all times. They call residences by name and remember their family members and visitors. They provide three meals a day in a pleasant setting and treat you like a guest. The quantity is more than ample and the quality is good. The food is delivered to your table while still warm. Your choice(s) of drink are also delivered. They have numerous special events such as Friday evening happy hour, exercise classes, stretching classes, and bus transportation to various events. I have met a good number of the staff and have never been disappointed. The apartment-style living quarters are of ample size and adequate housekeeping is provided weekly. They have a system for determining if you have left your apartment on any given day and check up on you if you have not. They can provide assistance if you fall and call for medical help or an ambulance when needed. They also have a separate assisted living facility that I toured. It houses two guests per room in a hospital-type environment. Again, I found the staff excellent and the available activities numerous. It is obvious they are as concerned about your mental health and well being as your physical health and safety.
