Evergreens At Smith Run was one of the cleanest and most up-to-date places we've checked out. It had a swimming pool and a very good exercise room with a lot of equipment. They had a lot of activities, too. They were located in a very good spot where there's shopping all around. Overall, we liked it. They don't serve meals because it's independent living.

Evergreens at Smith Run is beautifully, but there is no help there. My parents have their own little apartment, and they have about 750 sq. ft. of bedroom, a bathroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a little outdoor patio space. It's $1,200 a month. So if you do that and then have help come in for the things they need help with, it's hard to understand why the other places are $6,000 a month. It is lovely, the people who work there are lovely, and my parents are happy. They change their light bulbs when they go out, and they change the air filters in their apartment for them. They're very good. I would recommend them to anybody who does not need any assistance yet.

Evergreens was extremely nice but very expensive. The environment seemed great and the people seemed happy. They have a great room and they were celebrating a party that day; it was a monthly activity. They had a pool and offered water aerobics. They had a 2-bedroom model with a small kitchen and lots of storage spaces.
