Have had 15 very happy years here & now in my 90th year, I am still satisfied
5 / 5 ★Have had 15 very happy years here & now in my 90th year, I am still satisfied.
Enjoyed 14 years here
5 / 5 ★Have been here 14 years and enjoyed it.
New complexes, more people
4 / 5 ★New village complexes added to our original building mean many more people to meet & to get to know. Sometimes too many, sometimes I miss the smaller friendly group we used to be! Never mind. One can never say "I'm bored" - so many activities to get involved in, if one has time.
Independent living
4 / 5 ★Since the new buildings opened i think we feel a bit sidelined. ( I hope the new apartments sell soon)
Four Stars
4 / 5 ★Character reference of intending new residents.
Four Stars
4 / 5 ★EDIT (The grounds are so untidy while vacant apartments are empty and then on the market).
Good Sized Apartment
3 / 5 ★Arrange for a less costly security visitor entry. Landline cost of over $700 per year is excessive.
Great Location, Security and Privacy
3 / 5 ★Comment from friend "Entrance looks shabby", and I agree. Garden has little colour year round at Woodlands.
Close To All Amenities
2 / 5 ★There are people that are not at an 'independent living' stage that require ongoing help from other residents.
One Star
1 / 5 ★Don't sell apartments to people who should be in a care facility.
