Place is beautiful. Staff is wonderful. Meeting new people all the time.

Come and see for yourself. Experience is the best knowledge. The staff is very pleasant and can’t do enough for you. They want you to feel that this is your home. Friendly, inviting and worth getting up for in the morning.

Review for Highland Trail

I like the privacy of my room the staff not involved in your life. I like the quietness. I seem to be happy here on an individual basis. After living in three individual independent homes, I find that Highland Trail as by far the best food it's very clean well controlled. I love Highland Trail.

Highland Trail

Friendly and helpful. It is a very quiet home. Activities are not pulling in many residents and I have heard feedback from multiple residents that they want more activities, happy hour and more active things to do - outdoor pickle ball or some more movement related things. But in general everyone has been very nice and attentive. Servers are very sweet. . I am really pleased with Highland Trail for my dad. It fits him perfectly. I mention the other items because I hear from residents

Review for Highland Trail

Based on what my mom tells me, I would give them all 5s so far.[name removed], who helped my mom get signed up, was very easy to work with, so that was a good start. The facility feels more updated than most places we looked. My mom really likes the meals they offer as well as the exercise classes and other services. So far it has been a very positive experience for her.

Seems good fit

This is an independent facility, they have no medical staff. I describe it as an apartment for seniors either amenities. [name removed] was extremely helpful in considering this facility. Had a great tour, offered lots of room options. They have a large variety of room sizes/styles. Have studio, 1 & 2 bedroom rooms & very few are like others due to the shape of the building. Even the balconies sizes vary. Mom has been there a month & thus far seems that this facility offers what Mom was looking for.

Highland Trail review

What I like the most about Highland Trail are the activities they offer and I can easily talk to the staff members. I would recommend this community to other families based on the experience I have had so far.

Outstanding Staff, Residents and Community.

Holiday Highland Trail is a great place. My parents did ok there. I'm sad to say my parents passed away within 30 days of each other over a month ago. It's a great community and wonderful staff and residents. We would 100% recommend this community to other families.

Clean facilities, terrible experience. Save your money!

My parents moved a couple of months ago. That place is a total mess. Management was kind of awful to my parents. The food was horrible and never served what they said they were going to.

Best experience at Highland Trail

The best part of Highland Trail is the staff!! They should be commended for their patience and friendly service every day! They are always willing to provide a helping hand or an ear to listen. They are constantly coming up with new and exciting new activities and events. [name removed] and her team are the best in Broomfield!

Great place overall for my parents

It's overall a great place to be. The food, however, is not reliable in quality or what they post, which is extremely frustrating. Overall, I would recommend to other families.

Think twice

My mom really likes the residents here, but overall it hasn't been a good experience. We will probably be moving her soon. Yes the facility has a lovely atmosphere and is in a nice neighborhood, but there are issues that are concerning. They are so short staffed. The staff they do have is sharing duties (housekeeping, dining, etc) just to keep things going. They never answer the phone in the kitchen for take out/delivery orders. That's a huge issue for us right now, mom is quarantined and cannot leave her room. We've tried to call and order food several times and get no answer. I finally called the main facility phone number and asked why no one has checked on her or brought her food. Their response was that they can't go into her apartment while she's quarantined. I understand that, but she still has to eat and should be checked on, why aren't they at least leaving food outside of her door for her? There's no kitchen in the resident units, so it's not like she could make her own. Not to mention, the food is horrendous. So many of the other residents have said that also. When my sister brought her back from the ER, she was told that they were in the middle of dining and couldn't clear an elevator for her. She's sick, but had to wait in the car until dining was complete and all residents had left the dining area before she could get to her room. I would not recommend them to family and friends.

My review of Highland Trail

This community was just really expensive for my loved one and on top of that the food was horrible. We heard a lot of complaints about the food in this community from others also. Just because people are old does not mean that they do not want good food and will just eat whatever.

friendly, accommodating and wonderful so far

everyone at Highland seems to be very friendly and helpful. they've allowed my dog to move in with me; they offer self sufficient accommodations for my dog to go outside in a safe environment without a leash. I do think it's expensive, but the benefits and amenities offered are tremendous. I have not found anything wrong with this community so far and have already shared my experience with others. I'm excited to be moving in soon!
