My mother will be moving into Chancellor's Village. I had visited both independent and assisted living because the original plan was that my mom and my father would go into independent living, but my father passed away. It looked like a hotel when you walk in. It doesn't look like the old-style nursing homes where they looked old hospital style. I specifically was looking for my mom and my dad. They wanted apartments; they didn't want rooms. In independent living, they had a full kitchen that had more counter space than most apartments have. When it was both my parents, we were looking at planning on a one-bedroom plus a den, which was really nice that they had that option. With assisted living, my mother won't be cooking, but they still have a good-sized refrigerator and she could use a microwave and she still has two rooms. She has a sitting room and a bedroom along with her private bath. I wanted to put her in the smaller apartment because it was on the first floor. The bedroom was like 9x13. Since my father's not going to be there, she has a twin-size bed and that is enough room for one person. I was not able to tour the dining area in the assisted living because they were changing the carpet, but the dining area in independent living was like a fine restaurant. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained. They had a lot of flowering, ornamental trees, and bushes. That was another reason I went with a smaller apartment, they have balconies and screened porches, which is another thing I like. My mother's view is right in the courtyard. They have an activities director and it seems like there is something always scheduled for them to do. They have a full calendar for both independent and assisted. Natalie is the person who helps you find the apartment, and she was exceedingly helpful because at the time my father was in rehab and we had to meet a certain date for his discharge, she was working on that date. They always change out carpet between each resident and my dad elected to have the plank flooring and put in ceiling fans and she was working on that. When I contacted her that my had died and I needed to change my plan, she helped me coordinate to find the assisted living. She's just very, very helpful.

Chancellor’s Village was wonderful overall, especially the person who showed me around, Vicky, the sales person. Their amenities were beautiful, and it's a beautiful place. At the time, we were looking for my mother and brother, but they didn't offer any two-bedroom apartments, so that was the reason we didn't go with them, but we probably would have gone with them initially. They recommended the community where my mom is now. They have happy hours, bingo, they have people come in to entertain, and they have trips that they take to different activities in the community like the theater and things like that. The dining area was really nice. Everyone that I met there was extremely nice, and I was greeted by everyone I walked by. The place smelled good, not old or icky.

I loved this place. Although we did not choose it because they did not have any 2 bedroom apts. Roxanne was truly wonderful, upfront and honest. This would definitely have been my first choice if they had a 2 bedroom apt.

Chancellor's Village is very modern and well kept, has all the convenience, and is in a very nice neighborhood. It has a chef on duty and three meals a day. They clean your house once a week and have assisted living with 24/7 care. They have it all. The staff is excellent. Everything is very clean. However, the price costs more than I'm willing to pay right now. They have all kinds of things, but nothing I was crazy about. I've seen a studio and a two-bedroom with different layouts. They were small but enough for me.

Chancellor’s Village is my dad’s favorite place and mine too. The rooms were wonderful. It was the oldest building, but it had very nice-sized rooms with a nice layout. It had the largest kitchenettes of the places we visited and had a full-sized refrigerator, which we liked, unlike all the rest that had the end-of-the-counter type. They had balconies or patios for all of their rooms and an extra storage locker room for each resident. Their meals were the best; their soups and everything were made from scratch and fresh, and you can tell from the quality of the food that it was not frozen or processed. I liked that they mix their activities up. So, let’s say, if you like Canasta, one morning it might be at 10 o’clock, and then another time it might be varied to at 2 o’clock since not all of the residents want to get up early and go to Canasta, but they can catch it at a different time of day that suits them better. They have lots of activities off-campus and on-campus. They had the happiest staff and pride in their facility. They wore little name badges that had numbers on them for the number of years they have worked there, and we saw so many people with more than 10 years -- some 20. The only thing negative was that some of these newer places had the bistros so they have these little areas set aside for residents where they could come and get a cup of coffee, some water, and snacks like they bake cookies or put snacks out there and the residents can help themselves. Chancellor Village had a long table with the coffee and the water with the fresh slices of fruit in it and stuff, but it was not really its own little area; it was just like near the dining hall. If they can get the funds in the future to be able to build -- even if it is not on the assisted living side but on the independent living side -- a little café area where people can sit and grab a cup of coffee between meals.

My 97 year old Mother needed assistance and care after she fell and fractured her arm. Her mental health was great. We visited Chancellor's Village and met with Sharon and Roxanne. They were excellent, super friendly and helpful even going to visit my Mother in her home. Within 2 weeks she relocated to Chancellor's Village to a one bedroom assisted living apartment. She is so happy and loves her surroundings, activities, food, the residents and staff and says she is spoiled. It cannot get better than that. Thanks Sharon and Roxanne and Chancellor's Village for making our Mother so comfortable and happy.

My mother stayed at Chancellor's Village for respite care. The staff was kind, warm, open, friendly, and went above and beyond for everything. I can't say enough good things about them. They were amazing. The place was like a cruise ship without the water, like she was on vacation. There were so many activities. She said the food was delicious. They catered to her every need.

I toured Chancellor’s Village for my aunt, and it was lovely. I was very pleased with the woman who took me around. They had independent living and nursing care. They gave me a little gift of a container with home-made soup, so I imagine that the meals are very good. They had a library and craft area for the assisted living. There were flowers, plants, and grass that were well kept and had a nice-looking appearance. They had a separate entrance for assisted living individuals, so they wouldn’t be embarrassed coming in the same door used by people who are more capable. The staff was lovely.

We’ve decided on Chancellor’s Village. It’s only about five or six miles from where we live. We have friends who mentioned the fact that they knew people up there. So we went up, and looked it over. We were satisfied, and in fact we're satisfied enough that we've decided to go there.

Chancellor’s Village has all the bells and whistles. Even the waiters are well dressed, and the women had their hair done. It seemed a little bit over the top. It was as close as the period of where my mom has lived all her life. It was on the top of our list. The rooms have a stove, washer, and dryer.

Chancellor’s Village is very nice and clean, but it didn’t have the stay-in care my dad will need if he were to become bedridden, and he would have to be moved to another facility. The staff is very friendly and very knowledgeable.

Chancellor’s Village was very clean and friendly. I liked the way everything was set up. They had a room there where it looked like they were playing bowling on the Wii. I think they had movies. There was a schedule there where you could go and do activities. They did have a wait room in case you wanted to go in and do a little exercise. They have a little lunch room where you go in for your meals. They have a little library where you can go in and read and have some books. They have a bus that will take you to doctor’s appointments if needed. I was very impressed.

Chancellor's Village was a very nice place. They had an excellent dining area and a very good menu, and the apartments are of different sizes and were very clean. They had an exercise room, PT, and OT available, and activities in the afternoon like bingo, TV, and music.

I liked it very much. It is actually closer to where I live, and the services looked about equal to the other place I visited, but they didn't have a two-bedroom available. They were very friendly, and I actually know some people that have been in Chancellor's Village, so it came highly recommended. It's not so new, and the bedrooms were a little smaller but not a deal breaker. Then they had a little patio, porch, or balcony. They had some activities there, but they provided transportation to movies, bowling, churches, and other places.

Chancellor is more upscale, and they offer a lot of built things that you didn’t get at the other facility I went to. The nicer thing about this facility is that there seemed to be a lot more personnel, and what I didn’t like about this facility is that it is a multilevel facility, but I would recommend this place.

so happy I visited chancellors village, staffed on the weekend. Clean, beautiful. Mom will be moving soon. Thank you Roxanne for answering all our questions. You are so kind and patience.

Chancellor's Village was lovely. The staff members were so nice. Everybody was so nice and very helpful, and everybody was doing something.

The Chancellor's Village was wonderful, but they were way out of my price range. Everything was beautiful, just tip-top. I had an opportunity to meet the people, who were very accommodating. The apartments were very nice. In fact, they were remodeling some of the apartments. They had many activities, and they took care of everything; every step you took, they took care of it. I think they were tops, but like I said, they were out of my price range and they had a very high entrance fee. To anybody who has the money, I would recommend it.

We've placed my mother in Chancellor's Village. It's very nice. They have great food. The staff is very good, very caring. Mom's room is adequate; it's very nice. The security is very good; you have to sign in and out. There are lots of activities there, but she doesn't do any of them.

Chancellor's Village was a very large community. They had two people there who were blind. I didn't feel like my aunt would be watched as closely as I would like for her to be, but otherwise, the facility is very nice. The staff was very personable. They got the message to who I needed to get it to. They follow up with me with e-mails, letters, and phone calls. It seems the residents who live there are very personable as well. I think you need to be a little more mobile at Chancellor's than what my aunt is. It was a very nice facility, very up to date, very open. They had a little garden area out there, but it didn't hit me as far as what I thought my aunt would need as far as care.

I was looking to move my mother from her Assisted Living home in Florida to have her closer; after this past winter, I should consider moving down there instead. Last year, I made an appointment at Chancellor’s Village to speak with Lara, the Sales Counselor. She was amazing. After only about 10 minutes of questions/answers back and forth, I’m sure she realized that my mother could not afford to move to this area but she continued to answer my questions and concerns about handling my mother’s affairs long distance. She gave me some great advice and has even continued to stay in touch to see how things are going. Bottom line, if my mother could afford to move to the Fredericksburg area, I would not hesitate to move her to Chancellor’s Village.

Chancellors Village is tops! Mom went there for what would of been a two stay for respite care while we went out of town. She is now officially a new Resident ! The facility is gorgeous , clean and can't say enough about the staff there. The dining experience is like being at a resort . Mom loves the linen table cloths, great menu to order off of and a wonderful wait staff ! The apartments are beautiful and well maintained as the grounds. The transition from visitor to surprise resident was such a easy transition with the help of Lara ! Thank you CV! Conner family

Chancellor's Village was very nice and very impressive. We had supper there with some friends who are there and the food was quite good. Overall, the visit was a very good experience.

Our mother, now 90, has lived at Chancellors Village for 15 years transitioning from independent to assisted living. The staff is first rate, always pleasant, attentive and patient. Daily support (eg. medications, bathing assistance, etc.) is well organized, efficient and very dependable. Assisted living apartments are very clean and well maintained. Private apartment with one bedroom, bathroom, living room (with full size refridgerator, cabinets and sink), and private porch provides comfortable living. Dining room (3 meals per day), with menu and special diets, allows residents freedom to eat any time during serving hours. Chef and full wait staff is available at every meal. Daily activities are always an option (field trips, movies, hair dresser, exercise, guest speakers and other entertainment). Sunday transportation to religious services and other transportation is available for doctor appointments and shopping during the week. Assist living lobby and entrance (front desk, sitting room, staircase and elevator) is bright, clean, and cheerful. Birds and tropical fish in sitting room an added plus. Overall, management and staff set Chancellor's Village apart from all other facilities.
