I was treated very good and the director answered all my questions and concerns. I was also introduced to some of the residents, which I thought was very respectful. Upon returning home I decided to apply for residency at the Timber's base on my visit and tour, and now I'm looking forward to moving in when a apartment becomes available. Many thanks to the director ([name removed] and her staff)who introduced themselves to me and my daugther.

I found Illahee Hills to be a beautiful 55 and above senior community. Streams of natural light pour into the many common areas. My tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and I loved the way she interacted with the residents we met on the tour. Very clean and well maintained. I saw some of the residents engaged in different activities that are offered.

Loved the little sitting areas throughout and the whole building that have lots of sunlight. There were a number of book shelves with books and puzzles for everyone to enjoy. Wonderful feeling of community. Lots of activities and outings on their schedules to keep people involved and feeling positive.

Excellent Experience

The staff that works there are very knowledgeable about what you need for loved ones with dementia. They are attentive, caring and very much there for their resident. The facility is extremely clean, well kept. The rooms are the largest I saw. I toured 7 other facilities, and this was not in my list. I went at the last minute, and was extremely glad I did. The neighborhood isn't much, but what's important is the people on the inside. I would absolutely recommend this facility for families making the extremely hard decision for your loved one.

My wife and I moved to THE PARKWOOD a year ago. Hardly a day goes by without one or the other mentioning what a great decision that was. We are 90 and 88 years, both in reasonably good health. We are impressed with the staff...always friendly, helpful and diligent in scheduling events which socialize the residents. There's no reason to be lonesome at THE PARKWOOD. Food is always a subject of discussion in a facility such as this, our experience has been very positive.

My parents have said the cooks in the dining hall have been very accommodating to dietary restrictions, and they are very impressed with the food taste and variety
