Merrill Gardens

Legacy at Bear Creek has a wonderful atmosphere and incredibly friendly staff. The front desk staff are spectacular! I look forward to all of the family events. So much fun to attend with my mom!

I looked at several wonderful communities before choosing Merrill Gardens I felt right at home when I walked in and they let me visit 2 full days to see if it was a good fit for me. They have a weekly town hall meetings to listen to our needs and wants. There are tons of activities daily I have been asked to be on the Library committee, there's dominoes, nightly movies and lots more just so nice to have an independent active lifestyle. They come in weekly to clean and the staff is just so friendly and helpful. The food is great with weekly menus you receive on Sundays. They have a garden that they use for our food and a beautiful rose garden to sit and enjoy. I've made so many friends and would recommend this to anybody.

Merrill Gardens has been very positive so far for my father. The place is brand new, only 6 or 7 months old, and they work very hard to keep up the new appearance. The grounds and the inside are kept very tidy. The meals are great, the staff is friendly and accommodating, and they have plenty of activities to keep residents busy like arts, crafts, a movie theatre, and a van for off campus trips. It is also centrally located and just a five minute walk from places like the drugstore and the library. My father really likes that. I’d definitely recommend the community to others.

I find everyone but particularly [Removed], to be accessible and genuinely interested in the residents. It is a pleasure to live here.

I find that the community is a wonderful and perfect place. I would tell anyone to feel free to go there and take your parents to see the community. I believe the staff want to see happy residents.

This looked like a fabulous community when I toured it. The people I met were nice. This community does have some nice common areas and they seem to offer some nice activities. This community was a little more expensive than what we were looking for.

We liked this community when we visited. This is a larger community with several buildings and several stories high. The community is beautiful and the people we met were really nice. This community is a little more expensive than we were looking for.

everyone friendly, food is good, cleaning people friendly do a good job & much more. Too soon to say much more.

My father is doing well since his move into Sheldon Park. They try 3 times 3 people to encourage their residents to join activities and interact. The medical technicians are very on top, they are watching my father constantly and call me with any concerns. I also like that they have lectures and comedy acts, it is kind of interesting. I really like the facility and I like the openness. If you have a concern, they don't get offended. I would like the incontinent care to be tighter. The facility is always clean. I am assuming the staff are paid well and treated well here because they genuinely seem like they enjoy being there and really care about the residents, it has been a very good experience.

Just started my search for help for my parents; I was immediately impressed with the friendly staff and pleasant environment. The residents sitting in the lobby looked happy and even answered some of my questions. I did not have an appointment and they still took the time to give me a tour and offered lunch.

Mom has been a resident of the Syringa Memory Care unit of Willow Park for 3 1/2 years now. Very pleased with the medical oversight provided to all residents as well as solid recommendations for additional services such as physical therapy, speech therapy, etc. [Removed] is an outstanding nurse, always completely focused on the well being of those in his care and it shows. [Removed] does an amazing job lining up stimulating, fun activities to meet the needs of all residents, regardless of their abilities. The kitchen routinely turns out nutritious, home cooked meals and provided numerous special dining occasions for every holiday. Food quality is top notch. My mom's quality of life has increased immeasurably. She is always clean, well dressed and I've witnessed how much she enjoys the wide variety of activities and outings. She has gone from living alone and rarely going out to a very active life with great friends. The staff has truly enriched her life and provided me with great peace of mind. This is my second experience, also having had my mother in law in the assisted living area until her passing. Such a great feeling knowing your loved one is surrounded by such loving people and capable staff. Thank you Willow Park.

I couldn't pick a better place for my loved one. I love how the staff treat the residents like family.

The Merrill Gardens was a very nice place. The staff was very attentive and responsive. They have continued to follow up with me and answer any questions I have. The reason why we did not choose it was because they did not have a memory care unit.

My loved one has been doing very well at the Bay Park. He is very involved in activities and group events. The apartment that he is in is great, he has a lot of room and natural lighting. He likes to go outside and feed the wild turkeys. The place may not be perfect, but it is pretty close to it.

We think the caregivers at Sheldon Park are genuine. The place looks more like a hotel, and the atmosphere nice. Have heard good things about Sheldon Park, have known friends and neighbors who have lived there, and now experiencing with our own family member. Thank you!

I have a spacious apartment with a washer, dryer and full kitchen. They clean my apartment once a week. The staff are delightful and quick to respond to your needs. They offer restaurant style dining and the food is excellent. There is a mixed group of interesting residents and I would recommend this community.

Great place.Cant say anything bad about it. The staff is fantastic,they really just get it.The food is great to,mom loves it there.We can't ask for anything better for her.

Finding Willow Park has been a blessing. Truly a care facility. All the care givers have been kind gentile with my parents. After the passing of my mother, my father had to move into memory care, the staff suggested we use there bridges program to help with the transition, it was seamless and smooth. I can't say enough about everyone at Willow Park. They have helped at every turn with my parents and family.

This senior retirement home. Is a truly a five star facility,excellent food, programs, service and a beautiful place to live in. c B and D H

We moved our in laws into Willow Park almost a year ago! Wow, we had no idea how impressed we would be. The staff is so amazing. The employees are not just "working" there but are like family to all of us. Each of them takes special care to connect and love on each resident. We feel so blessed that we chose Willow Park as a home away from home for my in laws! Cannot recommend this place enough! So compassionate and above and beyond our expectations!
