Perfect for my Mom

My Mom moved to an independent living apartment at South Grove Lodge Senior Living Community in February of this year and she absolutely loves it there! Mom had given up driving a few years ago and was starting to feel the effects of living alone and being housebound. Having meals with others at SGL has added dimension and happiness to her daily life. In addition, she is enjoying many of the scheduled activities and social gatherings such as Mahjong, bingo, ice cream socials, and happy hour at the pub. My mom loves to walk and has found the long climate controlled halls at SGL to be perfect when the weather outside keeps her in. The staff is welcoming and helpful, always ready with a smile and a warm hello. Even though my mom loved her home, she is so happy to be at SGL where she is keeping busy, interacting with others daily, and feeling safe and secure. Both my mom and I highly recommend South Grove Lodge Senior Living Community.

Peace of mind

Very inviting and understanding of the situation. Most people don't want to leave their home, they understood that and made it feel comfortable.
