What families are saying about independent living in Lee County
Recent reviews for independent living in Lee County
Summer Village Campus in Auburn, AL
4.8
I really liked the triplex design rather than a multi-storey apartment building. I have a much larger apartment than most I looked at, with a garage. The food is also better than some I sampled. All in all, it was just a good fit for me.
Summer Village at Magnolia Place in Auburn, AL
4.6
The Summer Village community has made our loved one get more socially involved which we very nice. So far our loved one has not complained about the food, so from our understanding its pretty good.
Valley Park Manor
4.1
What we like the most about Valley Park Manor is that it is a smaller facility and the staff members there are easily accessible. Based on the experience we have had we would recommend them to other families
