Overpromised & Undelivered
Last one mostly a 3 because mom usually only eats dinner, which is good most of the time. They have changed chefs & staff many times. Management has changed at least 3 times, very disappointing. All have seemed to not know how to manage SR, almost like this place (SR) is a training center. We think they over sell the facility. They have a "Chef's Pantry" that is not well stocked. They do not have an ATM there. Hair salon has doubled their prices. My mom pays almost $5000 a month now for her three room apartment with a view of the highway. She does have a lanai. She spends $125-$175 a month on groceries. Mostly cheese and crackers and breakfast items. Things she can share with Neighbors when they get together. Also, it seems they don't deliver meals to the rooms anymore. They have a guest apartments for visitors to use. I have tried several times to rent it when I've gone to Florida to visit my mother. They are never available, seriously. I have called months in advance and I've been told they're not available. And I found out there's only one apartment to serve that purpose. There are many people there is not enough.

Did my homework. Visited 3 Independent Living communities. At 83 years old, I was tired of maintaining my home. I choose Stone River. It is more superior than the 2 other communities I visit 2. We have many activities during the month, the meals are wonderful and the staff is always variable with your concerns.

Been here 4 months good experience
We are in our early 60's (63&62)we are the youngest couple here. A lot of wheelchairs and mobile scooters. Average age is more in the 80's. Some times feels like a nursing home. Staff are top notch. Professional, friendly and helpful! Food is great good choice. Management are amazing make residents and staff feel valued. On the pricey side.

Stone River Experience
[name removed] was the BEST! I believe she was a big reason our nephew chose Stone River. She was and still is so helpful to us.
Room size is ok since meals are prepared downstairs.
Amenities like the movie theater, store, salon, make it nice. My nephew doesn't use a lot of those- kind of keeps to himself.

Couldn't be happier!!
1. Wonderful 2.very clean.3.extremely friendly residents & staff. 4.SR is independent, not assisted. But we have legacy PT & Visiting Angels on site. 5.Food is usually very good. Always a meat & fish or pasta, plus 2 or 3 hot veggies & a homemade soup & salad bar at lunch & dinner. Except Sunday supper. 6. Lots & lots of activities. Sometimes 2 or 3 different choices at the same time. Exercise classes every weekday, bridge 4 times a week, bingo 2 or 3 times a week, painting, coloring, puzzles, card games, scrabble, dominoes, poker, church for Catholics and Protestants, movies every evening, & much more.7. The price seemed high until I realized the inflation going on on the "outside world". It's month to month. But your rate is locked in for one year, no matter how much inflation goes up.

Amazing place for a retiring senior!
From the onset of our family's search for a retirement home for our love one, we sought out a place where he could regain his freedom and dignity as an aging adult with failing health.
Upon coming to Stone River Retirement Community, there was something very different about the overall atmosphere. The staff was extremely authentic and very accommodating. Unlike other establishments, there was a genuine concern and interest in our delima, which was exemplified by our first point of contact [name removed], on to the upper management personnel.
Up until our visit with Stone River, my brother, had not exhibited any reaction to any other place we had gone, yet he appeared to come alive subsequent to the visit here at Stone River. He became overly expressive of his delight in the facility's cleanliness, the exceptional dining experience, the kind and compassionate employees and staff. Etc...
It appeared as though we had found John's new home, a place he could find peace!

Stone River - great fit for our Mom!!
We are so happy we found Stone River! We visited and reviewed other senior apartments, in our area, so we could make the best decision for our Mom. Our goal was to make Mom feel happy and secure, provide nutritious meals, and have activities that could fill her days. I think we found all of those things in Stone River. The staff has been so welcoming to all of us and I believe she feels secure and has activities that she likes. She also likes the meals- we can tell because she has gained 10 lbs.!! Thank you Stone River!

A New Home For My Mom and Brother!
Stone River has been a great place for my mom and my brother to call home!
They can be in their apartment to eat breakfast, watch sporting events on tv. and have family and friends come visit them.
They have their privacy when desired, but can go to great meals in the dining room, go to church in the theatre room, get their nails done in the salon. It wasn’t easy for them to leave their forever home but thanks to the staff, they are both very happy living there!
