Based on the experience I have had so far, the staff members working there are very helpful and surrounding. However they have some areas they could improve on so on the moment, I would maybe recommend this community to other families.
Summer Village Campus in Auburn, AL

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

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.
