Review for Parkrose Chateau
A few things we like about the community is they listen to their residents desires, even when that is a challenge. With our current state of high food expense and difficult staffing, they are clear and kind.

The staff have been great for the most part. Just wish people wouldn't keep leaving! The food is terrible and mom says half the time she doesn't eat dinner because it's gross. I do wish the refrigerators in the rooms were larger. Overall the experience of moving mom in was great. The person who helped us understand what the offered and the amenities was especially awesome.

I like the different outings they do the other activities they have at the center and not so much that can improve

I love our cottage with a yard and garden. The landscaping is very pretty The turnover of employees is constant so everything is changing all the time. Food service is sometimes so slow we just leave and eat in our house

My sister lives there and seems to like it well enough. The facility is kept up in good condition, and the staff is friendly and helpful. She sometimes says the food is so so but then I take it with a grain of salt as she doesn't have to prepare the food. I sometimes don't like what I fix for myself!

From the moment I learned the residents voted to move their main meal to noon, I knew this place was different, listening to the residents. There is no institutional feel. The food is very good. The emphasis is on social connections.

Respectful, inviting, clean, well managed, enjoyable community. I moved in the beginning of March this year. I have a lovely studio apartment at Parkrose Chateau Gracious Retirement Living Community.

Be sure to negotiate with them. I found out others got a much better deal than we did and better upgrades on their units. If the quality of the meals are important you may want to cook for yourself. The main reason we picked here is that our unit is a cottage with a fenced yard for our two dogs. The space is good it's a three bedroom with a garage.

We shopped around for my sister for a good place for her to live independently and were very pleased upon first seeing Parkrose Chateau. Since my sister has moved in, we have been even more impressed. First of all, she seems to be thriving, which means everything to us. Second, the staff is wonderful (kudo's to [name removed]!), the food is good, there are great on-site and off-site activities and the cost is very reasonable. I would not hesitate to recommend this place for someone who is looking for independent living. 5 Stars!

Parkrose Chateau ownership changed last year and was purchased by Hawthorn. Since then everything has gone downhill quickly and dramatically. I have sent dozens of emails over the course of the last nine months due to concerns, with zero response from management. My parents have experienced black mold, mice, ants and no housekeeping service for over three months (they are supposed to receive weekly cleaning services that is included in the rent). The food is very spotty because the facility is unable to retain employees for any length of time, including the chefs, maintenance, dining hall servers and housekeeping. My parents were displaced for over nine months due to a black mold issue in their cottage. A high level manager had the nerve to suggest that my parents were at fault, which is disgraceful. We were told directly by the mold experts that it was caused by a slow leak below the flooring. So much more to write, but character limit here! AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE!

The overall experience was friendly, helpful and all questions answered. Cleanliness is excellent, staff is very friendly and ready to help. Quality of care is excellent. Meals are wonderfully prepared and there is a great selection of food served. I've eaten there a couple times. I went on one activity with my sister and enjoyed it immensely. The driver is excellent, the residents who went were very friendly. Value for cost is excellent. My sister has a beautiful room with a small patio on main level. All meals are provided, plus cleaning service is provided to include changing her bed and giving her clean towels, plus there are several varied activities she can participate in. She seems to be doing well there.

This is a good place for a loved one. The staff are friendly and the community is affordable. The staff are attentive to the residents and willing to assist with questions or concerns. The food is good. Right now there is no activities director in the community, so activities are off and on.

Multi-year experience with an elderly friend we were responsible for. Facility is somewhat older but has been remodeled and upgraded as it presents well and is very comfortable. Food is well prepared and contains a nice variety. Lots of activities and entertainment. High point of this operation is the Management and Staff. They are friendly, attentive and appear to truly care about and for their residents. Would and have recommended Parkrose Chateau several times.

Out of all of the facilities I looked at, this one was my favorite. The building is beautiful and open. They had just been bought out by another company when I was looking.

Our sister tour the facility and she said that it was not quite as friendly as another place we looked at, and the value was not an al la cart options. It was like a take it or leave it value.

I've had a good experience here. They try really hard and listen to what you want. They have lots of activities, and we went to the museum the other day, which was a lot of fun. My apartment is very good, and perfectly adequate for one person. A lot of places are a lot more money, so think it's a great value for the money.

They're a great place. It's extremely clean. The staff is incredible. They're all really nice people. I've really enjoyed getting to have relationships with them - pretty much everyone I've met - the director, the sales manager, the general manager, the front desk staff. Unlike almost every other retirement or old folks home that we went to, it doesn't have a smell to it at all. It's more like a resort than a retirement community. The only thing they don't have is a pool! They always have a great selection of activities offered. I've really enjoyed it. I would want to retire here when the time comes.

If your looking for a place to take the worry away you might need to look a little harder. The facility itself is clean as well as the outside. However, the communication amongst the management staff is very poor. That’s not to say that it can’t change but from my personal experience it needs to be Seriously addressed. If you are not constantly calling You don’t get any answers and when you do get answers They’re usually not followed through on. Anyway, it could be a lot worse but it also could be much better. The staff is nice but Management could Definitely be better with it’s communication with residents, residents family’s and especially with each other.

My 92 year old Mother has been at Parkrose Chateau since July of 2015. In that time we've seen a lot of change. From locally owned to now owned by an investment group in Florida. More rollover in management, housekeeping staff and especially Chefs since the change of ownership. Things seem to have stabilized now just in time for Covid-19. Parkrose is one of the more reasonably priced communities in the tri-county area. I pray there is no rollover in the current managing staff, housekeepers or chefs for a long time to come. This outstanding group of people have kept the community entirely Covid-19 free since the pandemic began through strict adherence to health guidelines, cleanliness, and adopting new computer technology. As my Mom's caregiver I can't emphasize enough how hard they have ALL worked to make my life and that of the residents as pleasant and interesting as possible for people self-isolating in their rooms with no visitors or trips outside the building allowed.
