Highest Quality of Care & Welcoming!!!

We were looking for an Assisted Living Facility (ALF) for my Grandpa. After him having bad experiences at other places, we finally found a beautiful, clean, spacious and caring place for him. Just by switching his environment and the staff that actually does things with their residents, his overall well being has improved rapidly! His specialists have seen nothing but positive results in his health to include his diet. Mariella of Grapevine's healthy & delicious diet plans for all their residents have made huge positive changes with his health. Their daily activities and outings are super fun and they always bring a medical staff member for extra support! He has been to more outings in less than 6 months than he has been at his last ALF in 2 years! Super clean environment and the quality of care for their residents is phenomenal! The facilities and staff are loving, fabulous and the price is very reasonable! THANK YOU!!! 5 STARS!!!!!

Awesome Atmosphere!

I am writing this review with my friend that I brought in to tour the facility. We absolutely loved the facility and the staff that greeted us. They were so welcoming and professional. We enjoyed the tour. Everything was so clean and nice. All our questions were answered. This was our first facility to view but I can see it will be hard to beat.

Responsive Staff

My loved one is currently a resident at Dancing River. We had a visit/tour of the facility and moved in within the same week, they were very helpful. I would recommend Dancing River to others looking for an Assisted Living facility for their loved one.

Not what it used to be. :(

My parents moved into Dancing River five years ago. I gave them a 5 star review two years ago so, as you look at the reviews, please note the date. Dancing River was a wonderful facility until new management took over in 2021. The caregivers that are still there are wonderful and caring people, but they are overworked due to the huge staff turnover in the last 9 months. We paid for Level 4 care (the highest level of care) for my father. When I visited him last month his room had not been cleaned all month, his laundry was overflowing (level 4 care includes daily laundry if necessary) leaving only a few clothes in his closet, his room smelled horrible, and there was feces smeared on his toilet and dried urine on the floor. He was getting depressed and no longer wanted to participate in activities. I spoke with [name removed] (acting director/management) about the issues. Unfortunately, my father passed away before we could move him out. Most of his friends were moving out for the same reasons.

Sad decline in the last 6 months

Mom lived there just shy of 2 years and experience was very mediocre due to constant turnover of staff. She was very lucky to have a couple tenured caregivers that were amazing but the lack of staff ended up burning them out. Unfortunately, we recently had to move her out due to medication errors and lack of administrative presence/accountability. Very stressful for Mom to change environments but her safety/well-being took priority

Tour experience

I toured with Dancing River and really liked the facility and the staff a lot. Unfortunately my loved one needed more care than they were going to be able to handle, but it looked like a great place.

tour review

Our family had an in person tour and Dancing River is just a beautiful beautiful community, and you could tell it was very well ran. We really loved the way the rooms were set up and laid out, they have shared suites there but they are still somewhat separated. The overall tour experience and community itself was very impressive

Highly recommend

No place is perfect but we have been very happy with our experience Dancing River. It is pricey but it is worth it for the great care that she is getting. My mom seems happy here, it took her a while to participate in the activities but she is doing great now. She has made some friends, the lady at the hair salon has been wonderful and so helpful and she also loves the maintenance man, they are buds. I would definitely recommend them to others looking.

Our tour experience

Our family had an in person tour and just by the pictures online it was our second choice but once we saw it in person it was our first choice, but they just did not have the room availability we were needing for our loved one.

Help For the Whole Family

I've been very happy with them and very pleased. Everybody is very nice and easy to work with. I think they're taking good care of my loved one. He's more involved and active, and talking more than he was at home. We've had some physical, medical issues and they're always right on top of everything. They always call me with anything they think I need to know. So far it's going very well. And I've already recommended them to others. They've helped me as much as they're helping him.

A good fit for our friends needs

This review is based off of memory care because they do offer assisted living as well. We chose this facility because of the proximity to my work and home. The room sizes here are very good. Overall, we have had a good experience here and would absolutely recommend to others.

Dancing River

I recently moved my father to Dancing River. Both my in-laws had lived there very happily a few years ago. I was pleased to find many of the same wonderful staff members that had so compassionately cared for them. The entire staff has helped make this transition for my dad (and me) easy and fun. Due to COVID they arranged to have his furniture packed, moved and set up for him so when he walked in his apartment for the first time he saw his things set up like home! He loves the staff and the food, and we are grateful that he is in a community where the staff clearly has a passion for what they do.

Not what I expected

Definitely have a camera in the room so that the family can see what's going on with that loved one when they are not there. The biggest problem was the food, it wasn't good, Breakfast was fine but lunch and dinner were the same meal. We chose this community because that had availability and I looked at others and this looked to be best of the ones I've seen. I would not recommend this community to other families.
