I toured Rio Terra Retirement. I liked the atmosphere and the cleanliness of the place. I saw a lot of residents out and about, and they had friendly and knowledgeable staff. The package included meals depending on what you signed up for. It had a lot of outdoor spaces. They had a lot of activities available for the residents. There was a big courtyard and a big area out front where people could sit.

We were looking for a safe, comfortable place for our dad. When we visited Rio Terra, we were and still are just amazed by the great things we saw and witnessed. Smiles, fun and very caring employees everywhere. As soon as they have an opening, dad will be moving in. We also had lunch and it was so delicious! Many choices too.

We visited Rio Terra. The rooms were smaller. I didn't see any activities while I was there. However, the dining area was somewhat better than what's at the other place. They have nicer appointment and such. Overall, Rio Terra was on the same scale as the other place. It was clean and nicely appointed.

I went to the assisted living and the memory care sections of Rio Terra Retirement. It was very nice. The rooms were adequate. Their studio was much larger than other places that I looked at. They were very accommodating. Our doctor highly recommended them, so we're leaning that way.

We saw the main area and the patio area at the back when we toured Rio Terra. They showed us the kitchenette or dining area where majority of the patients sit. They were having an activity where the staff was reading a book to the residents.

Rio Terra was great and had the best vibe; it stood out. We liked that the price was very good and that they had independent living with full kitchens, and the assisted living had efficiency kitchens. The rooms were very nice and had really nice blinds. The marketing director who took us around was very personable and made us feel at home. The people there were very accommodating and welcoming. The overall grounds were beautifully kept, and we liked it.

Rio Terra had memory care and assisted living. The dining area and kitchen were impeccable. They had very nice memory care with a lot of assistance from nurses. The people were happy and very nice. The facility looked very new and very open. They had all kinds of activities going on all of the time. It was a very nice place. Everything was good.

They were nice at Rio Terra Retirement, and they had a special wing for patients that have Alzheimer’s and dementia, but it was too expensive for what we can afford. It was a nice facility. It just won’t work for us right now.

Rio Terra was clean, conveniently close to home and of reasonable price. My mother-in-law had one bedroom with a bathroom and a small kitchen. The staff seemed to have a good attitude and was helpful. They also have medical people there. They have activities that interact with the residents. My mother-in-law liked the people and the place.

We visited the Rio Terra assisted living facility, since we happened to be in the area. We liked the area a lot - and there are plenty of affordable accommodations for family members who visit from out of town. The grounds were spacious and well tended.
We liked the vibe - it was friendly and casual, but still professionally maintained. There was plenty of staff to take care of basic needs and care of residents.
The activities ranged from board games, to discussions, private reading and watching film and TV. All of the areas were pleasant to be in and we could see that the residents thought so, as well.
The indoor areas were all clean and bright. There is plenty of sunlight so that they do not need to use lighting when it is sunny outside. This was also true for the dwelling spaces.
The activities they plan regularly include everything from visiting local restaurant favorites, the public library, movies, theaters, festivals and fairs - to day trips to nearby areas.
The private rooms were decorated tastefully with a homey, light and airy atmosphere. Each unit has nice views of the surrounding area. Bathrooms were designed with safety seats and rails.
The staff is well-versed at taking care of a variety of types of people, from those who are not ambulatory - to people who have memory issues.
Their menus offered a variety of healthy food options. The food we saw looked nutritious, delicious and smelled really good, too. The snacks also looked interesting and healthy with a nice mix of nutritious options.
We also liked that they encourage drinking plenty of fluids for healthy hydration each day.
They have planned exercise classes - but also offer residents to work out any time they wish. We liked that they encourage exercise daily.
This facility seemed very well maintained, with very nice staff and content residents.

I found the staff at McKenna Village to be warm and friendly, ready to assist and answer questions that any of us might have. The facility is new and beautiful. The common rooms are lovely with spacious gathering rooms as well as a dedicated movie viewing theater, a library and computer room, and smaller nooks and corners that people can sit in to visit. The rooms were well maintained and the appliances were all new. I liked the variety of layouts, and thought there were options to accommodate many different needs. The dining room was lovely, with views of the gardens and outside patio. Servers were pleasant, and the food surpassed my expectations. We were able to view both empty (available) rooms, and rooms that residents lived in to see how furniture fit. I especially liked the shelves outside of each room that allows the residents to personalize through displaying seasonal or other decor of their choice. Beautiful art on the walls, and a general sense of calm and pleasantness filled the entire facility.
