Elison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest was very nice. That was the first one we did. The lady that gave us the tour, everyone knew her. All the staff have been there for a long time. They have different size floor plans. One bathroom has a step-in shower, and if it's a two-bathroom unit, then the other one has a tub. They have weekly housekeeping. They come in and clean your apartment once a week. The staff took her time to answer the questions. And in fact, I'm going to see her again in March. I'm going to make an appointment to see her again because I have more questions. They had a nice little luncheon for the folks that were touring the facility and it was very nice. The grounds are clean, inside the building where you come in the entryway, and in their main area where people can sit, read or chat, were just very nicely set up and very clean.

I will be moving into Elison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest. They offer a hot breakfast, unfortunately, it's only served from 7 am to 9 am, but a breakfast anyway. Then whatever you want to call it, from 12 PM until 4 PM or 5 PM, they have lunch or dinner. There's a choice of two or three soups, a couple of salads, and two or three entrees. They do the sheets and the towels. eats in the towers. We're responsible for our own laundry, but they have free washers and dryers. There's a small but sufficient storage room where we can put superfluous things. The atmosphere was very pleasant the day we came there. They did have 40 Christmas trees in the lobby or the main recreation area. It's well-maintained. The staff seems to be in very good disposition all the time. It's hard to believe that we're going to be one of those old folks living there, but we're making decisions while we still can. It was a toss-up between them and another facility. They just offered us a better introductory offer of freezing the cost for two years, giving us one month of free rent. We had to make a decision very quickly to take advantage of that, but we did. I don't think we're going to have any regrets except leaving more stuff behind than we're taking, but that's the way it goes. We're going to independent living, but you can't stay in the same apartment if you transition to assisted care. But hopefully, we'll be okay for a few years. After that, they also have a level of memory care, so we can stay in the same facility and make those lateral moves once we get in. That's another thing we liked about this place. It has an adequate galley-type kitchen, which would have passed through into the main room so that if you had a table in front of the window there, you could move food from there into the eating area. The bathroom was well maintained, they rehabbed the bathroom and put a fresh coat of paint on it. That's another thing, the service they have is they'll also clean the bathroom and the kitchen area. We're responsible for vacuuming the floors. It has a regular-sized refrigerator, not gigantic but more than the dormer, and also with an icemaker which was an added perk. The stove is a little four-burner stove, and a nice microwave suspended above it. It's an adequate kitchen for sure. It also has a dishwasher, which I probably won't use, but at any rate, it's there. The washer and dryer are in a laundry room, separate of course from the apartment. It's all on one floor, everything is on the same level. You don't have to go up and down the steps. It's very convenient. The tour was very well done. The lady who took us through was relatively new and she was doubly careful. But it was a good presentation, and everybody that we met on staff was upbeat, positive, and with a good disposition. The staff, she did really well, her name's Jo. We ate there on two separate days, and the food is like being in a restaurant. You come in, and you sit down at a table with a full-place setting. They bring you a menu, and you choose from the menu. They bring you the soup and the salad first, and then the entrees. There's always a dessert. What's cool is, if you can't eat it all, you can take whatever is leftover up to your apartment. The facility was immaculate. They also have a heated swimming pool, exercise classes, and a crafts facility. The only thing that's hard to get used to is, so many people on walkers, and we haven't gotten there yet. But we'll be in good company while we do. Anyway, no complaints.

Elison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest would have been my next choice. The staff members were all very friendly and efficient. The rooms were spacious enough for a unit. The residents were playing cards and putting puzzles together. It was a fairly active community. They had a very good library and very nice grounds. They also had a balcony or patio, which was one of my must-haves.

We've visited Elison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest, it's nice. It was a very clean place, I like the cafeteria area, and it seemed like a nice place. I liked the rooms, they were kept together pretty well, and clean and nice looking. It was a good experience. The staff who helped me out during the tour was great. She's very informative, she provided me with all the information that was needed, and kept me abreast of all the openings in the facility, and which ones are coming up. The menu looked great and it was very diverse. I wasn't really hungry, but she showed me the menu and all the different items on the menu to choose from. I saw somebody playing with a puzzle and a group of people playing bingo.

Ellison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest was nice. I liked it. That's probably where I'll be looking to go back when it's time to go. They have balconies. They have guards on the first floor all the time. The dining room was nice, and it's a big place. They have food any time you want pretty much. They got all the stuff you need to live. The staff during the tour was great, gave me a lot of information, answered all my questions, was very polite, and nice. She had a nice personality. The rooms were very roomy, and the prices are competitive. I liked this better because they had more selection to pick from than a lot of places. I got a brownie from them and it was very good. The menu looked good and they change it every day. The staff wants me to come back and tour it again, and I'm going to eat then. They have a list of things they do. They take you out on a bus, take you shopping, and take you out for dinners and excursions.

Of the places my brother-in-law visited, Elison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest was the one he's seriously considering. My sister and I were impressed. We thought it was great, and my brother-in-law liked it. It's very nice. The people there were very friendly. My brother-in-law went with his friends yesterday, and they were there for almost four hours. They talked with residents, had lunch, had a tour, and saw what rooms were available now. Whatever questions my brother-in-law and his friends had, the staff took all the time to answer them in detail. His friends were really impressed with the place as well. They had the menu for every day of the week, and it's different soups and different salads. They have different specials every day to keep it interesting. The sample rooms that we saw were very nice; not too small, not too fancy. They seemed very well maintained. They've been in business for over 30 years, but everything still seems very current and in excellent condition. It's very fresh. It feels a little bit like a really nice hotel, and there's nothing wrong with that. It's very clean and very well tended. The rooms were attractive. They have a long list of activities every day. There's always something going on, and they do the transportation thing. It's a pleasant building, and the people who work there seemed very friendly and dedicated to their job. They like their job. They have a whole wall of people who have worked there multiple years. It's another good sign. It's very clean, very well maintained, and very youthful. The first day we went, the main person wasn't available. Somebody else gave the tour, but she explained that everybody pitches in and does everything there. She gave us a tour, and we met other people in the elevator who work there. Everybody really seemed friendly and greeted all the other residents by name.

I visited Elison Senior Living Community of Pinecrest. I liked that it seemed secure and friendly, but it's too large for me. The person who gave me the tour was very friendly. They gave me a meal, and it was very good. The rooms have a stove, microwave, and refrigerator. They had a pool. They had a courtyard. There's a walking trail right nearby, and they have a lot of activities. They do bingo, singing, theater, and religious services.

My parents are doing great here, and they love it. I like the staff very much. They're all apartments there. They go on outings, do crafts, games, and there's entertainment coming in. The facility is very nice.

We went here, it was more upscale, and lots of people were there. Everyone was pleasant. They have all kinds of craft, classes you could go to, and it was very pleasant. They have many excursion trips, off to different restaurants, and trips to different places around. The rooms were adequate, and the staff was wonderful. The food was very good.

It was very clean. The food was good, and the rooms were fair in size. I like the idea where they take the residents to doctors and things like that. The staff was very friendly and very knowledgeable. Location was excellent. It was across the street from a park.

I'm at here and we definitely know that we made the correct decisions because of two reasons. Number one: We're not pressured to do anything that we don't want to do and you don't feel like you're in a caregiver place. Number two: There is excellent transportation available. It's a very good place. I would recommend it to anybody. There are all sorts of activities; they change by the month and there's a pool. Cleanliness is excellent. It's not what I would call a huge facility. It's probably of moderate size compared to the size of the other ones in the area. I think the whole facility is between twenty and thirty years old.
