Steeplechase Gracious Retirement

I was looking for a place for my cousin who was in assisted living but really didn't need all the restrictions they provided. Steeplechase was a perfect fit for her. The atmosphere was so homey and the food was delicious. We were immediately welcomed by the friendly, helpful staff. She got a place on the first floor with access to a small patio outside. She is involved in several activities and appreciates having the salon on site for haircuts. The freedom provided by the van transportation services is great. They are very accommodating when she has appointments or wants to shop. I just spoke with her the other day and she expressed how grateful she is to have found this place to live.

Hessler Heights

The biggest concern has been the food quality. The vegetables are often too mushy and the meals tend to be overly salty. We spoke with the chef, who mentioned that corporate switched to a lower-cost food distributor, which unfortunately shows in the quality. As a result, the meals are not as good as we had hoped. On the other hand, the activities are excellent—this is one of the standout features. There’s a wide variety, and my mom truly enjoys participating in them. Another challenge is the dining structure. My mom doesn’t eat breakfast and occasionally skips dinner, though she regularly attends lunch. It would be much more practical if there were a flexible meal plan—something like a college-style system where you have a card with a set amount of money to use as needed, with the ability to reload it and roll over unused funds. As it stands now, unused meals feel like wasted money that could otherwise go toward rent. That said, we really do love the community overall. The staff and residents are wonderful, my mom feels safe, and she truly enjoys the activities and amenities.

Grateful

Mom's move in was delayed due to a medical emergency. The staff had everything ready for my husband and I to prep her room for her. They delivered her meals to her until she was able to come to the dining room on her own. The admin staff checks in with me every time I come in to ensure her needs are met. The few maintenance issues have been addressed and corrected quickly and the staff chatted with mom and made her comfortable when they were in her room. We could not be more pleased and grateful!

I toured Heatherwood when they first opened (2014 I believe) and when I toured last week the facility looked as fresh as I remembered. The residents and staff are very friendly and there is a real "homey" atmosphere about the place. There are lots of activities and outings planned for residents and the best thing is it's all planned for you. I firmly believe this will be my new home once I have pared down my belongings.

I recently toured Scholl Canyon Estates while searching for an independent living community for my mother. Overall, I was very impressed with both the environment and the staff. The facility is exceptionally well-maintained and clean. It has a peaceful, generally quiet atmosphere that makes it feel like a true home rather than a "facility." The standout feature, however, was the staff. Every person I met was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and informative. They were patient with my questions and provided clear details about the transition process and the services available. While my mother ultimately chose a different community based on her personal preference for a specific layout, Scholl Canyon was a top contender. I highly recommend it to any family looking for a friendly, tranquil, and well-kept senior living option.

Lovely place

The staff here are truly exceptional. From management to the kitchen team to the serving staff, every single person is attentive, friendly, and clearly committed to creating a welcoming environment. Their professionalism is matched by a genuine warmth that makes a real difference day to day. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know several people here, and the sense of community is something special. The connections I’ve made have been incredibly enjoyable, and there’s a real feeling of belonging. This is a wonderfully “alive” place—there’s always something going on, and the interactions among tenants create an engaging, vibrant atmosphere that’s hard to find elsewhere. Maintenance is equally outstanding. Whenever I’ve needed assistance, the response has been prompt and reliable. It’s clear that care and responsiveness are a priority here. There’s almost always a game to be enjoyed. Whether it’s a round of cards, Rummikub, canasta, or bingo, there’s a wonderful variety of activities that bring people together. These moments add so much fun and camaraderie to daily life and are a big part of what makes this community feel so lively and connected. Overall, this is a place where people truly go above and beyond, and it shows in every aspect of the experience.
