What families are saying about independent living in Hicks

Recent reviews for independent living in Hicks

The Bungalows at Fayetteville

3.8
We like our room with its view of a hayfield behind us and our private patio. We are continually working with the food director to provide a quality diet. The size of the room was very important--larger than most other facilities.

Cedar Springs Independent Living in Prairie Grove, AR

4.9
My loved one is a resident at Cedar Springs and most everything has been great. However, it's always hard to get someone from the office on the phone. I feel like calls need to route to someone even if no one is physically at the office.

Village on the Park Rogers

4.5
We cannot rate the quality of care as we are in the independent cottages. Overall what we like the most about Village on the Park Rogers is the friendly people (both the staff members and the other residents). We like the quality housekeeping, the security and most services they offer.
