Swimming Pool!

The current manager of the property [name removed] is very good at what she does and is a very helpful asset to the community. The staff is amazing at helping you work through issues whether they are monetary or hospital stays, etc. I would recommend River Commons to others looking for independent living.

I toured this community and it was really nice, but the rooms were pretty small compared to several other places. Everything else seemed great!

Friendly staff and a nice community

Our loved one was only there for a couple months for respite care and she really enjoyed her stay. We live out of state so we never laid eyes on the community but she never complained about the cleanliness of the place. She was very happy with her room, but the only complaint she had, had to do with the mail. There was some inconsistency with receiving mail sometimes and not receiving mail other times - but we think since she did not have a permanent room there she did not get a PO Box like the other residents did. She seemed very pleased with the meals and dining service and really happy with all the different activities.

Great staff

The staff has all been incredibly friendly and helpful. They are very responsive when you call them if you have any questions or concerns. My loved ones say the food can be hit or miss. They are doing boxed dinners on the weekends and they do not like those very much. Overall I would recommend River Commons to others.

This was a smaller community and we were looking for a community a little bigger and wanted more activities for my loved one to do.

Good community, could've used more cleaning in the community and the residents not as friendly.

River Commons

So far our loved one is doing okay, she is starting to have some memory loss so we may have to move her eventually since this is only independent living and they don't have nursing staff to check on residents constantly. However she has became friends with her neighbors, and she has a group of people she eats the meals with and does activities with. She is loving it so far.

I have been living at River Commons for almost two years. I feel safe and happy here. I've have lots of activities ; from things like exercising, bingo, entertainment trips, book club, chorus, shuttle to the bigger stores and to doctor visits etc. Cards church services, arts and crafts. Our manager {name removed} is always planning new activities. I love my happy hour.

My mother has been a resident of RC for a little over a year. She is 93 year old and this facility and staff have been a blessing to my mother and my families peace of mind. {name removed} ensures she provides the needed care of the residence that reside at RC. My mother feels loved by all RC staff and they all go out of their way to take great care of her!

My mother lived at River Commons for many years. The quality of life, sense of community and general atmosphere of positive support were always excellent. The surrounding grounds are beautifully and always maintained. All services meals and other practical matters were consistently of high quality.

River Commons review

Our loved one is doing fine at the River Commons community, she has acclimated very well. Everyone seems to be very very friendly. Sometimes she says there isn't anything to do over the weekends, but we have to remind her that the workers also have their own lives so sometimes the weekends might just be a little slower.

They do offer a lot of activities, but because of the virus they have not been able to have any. We would recommend this community to others.

Lots of construction

They are doing construction across the street that will last for years. So it is loud and messy. The pool is not usable for residents. The food is terrible. The room sizes are a little bit bigger than average.
