Review for The Pearl at Boulder Creek

We have had a fantastic experience over the last year at The Pearl, and I would recommend it to anyone. The food is delicious, people are open and friendly in the dining room, and there are many activities within and beyond the building. The staff are lovely and supportive, helping quickly upon request. It is also a place where you can move from Independent Care to Assisted Living so that a move is not necessary. Moving away from her Independent Living-only place to come to the Pearl and leaving her friends to was very hard for my mother in law. Join people at The Pearl for lunch and see what a lovely atmosphere it is!

A warm welcome and lots of life!

I highly recommend this place out of all the places in Boulder. [community removed] is also lovely, lower key and sweet. For my social mother in law, the Pearl is heaven. Fantastic staff, excellent food, lots of exercise classes, and a friendly dining room. Two thumbs up!

Our experience

What we like the most about The Pearl is the staff. They are very engaged, caring, organizing variety of programs every week. Residents; diverse and engaged, volunteering, caring, welcoming, and downright fun to be around. We like it here, feel at home. Great location, near CU, downtown Boulder, and Boulder Creek.

Kind and Clean Community

My mother and I took a tour of the facility and were quite impressed by how active the community was. There seem to be a lot of classes and activities offered and the lunch we had in the restaurant was delicious. Thank you, [name removed], for showing us around and recommending nearby sights during our visit.

Not for everyone

If your family member has mental health issues, trust issues or wondering you don’t want them here. Safety is a big issue here. You have staff doing drugs, drinking, residents who get attacked in their own apartment. Clients who are paying for services that are not being done. You have a kitchen server running the resident coordinator.

We feel very comfortable with our decision for our parents to live here.

I love The Carillon. The staff go out of their way to be helpful and find answers to any questions you may have. You're always greeted with a warm smile. They treat the residents with respect and dignity and love. I really can't say enough nice things about the staff. And the people that live there are so kind and welcoming as well. In our family, all six siblings have all been very happy that we made the decision for our parents to live here.

A Very Good Community For Me

The community I picked out for myself is very nice. It is mostly for resident who are independent with some assistance. They are in a good location for me to be close to my family and I enjoy so much that is here for us. It is kept clean, plenty of activities, and very good staff.

Beautiful facility, but not the right fit

It is a beautiful facility, but not the right fit for my Mom. They have great activities, but my Mom has dementia, so she could not really participate in the activities. I think the facility for assisted living is outstanding. The food is very good and the gym was nice. For what they say they are, I think they are a great facility. It would be a great fit for someone that did not need the level of care that my Mom does.

Great food and activities!

Overall they do an excellent job here! The restaurant service is terrific, the food is good and the wait staff are great. They could stand to change the menu a little more often, however. They also do an excellent job with the activities here, they have a good variety and a lot going on throughout the day. One thing they would work on is going a little farther to reach out to the residents to make sure everyone gets involved.

Great so far.

Mom has only been there a little over a month. I hope that as she gets settled she will participate more, which is something she said she missed living alone in her own home. The food is great, there seem to be a lot of activities available, the facility is beautiful and people have been very friendly. Family visits to Mom there have been very pleasant.

I like the photos of how this will look. I think it has a combination of contemporary/retro/Frank LLoyd Wright feel fo it. I also liked the high ceiling option in the 'wings'. I think shey enjoy living with people of higher intellectual ilk. The floor plans offer good options for her and I think she would be able to find one she likes if so minded.

Right in the middle of CU campus. So...

Right in the middle of CU campus. Some great perks, like classes and games on campus. Didn't like the layout of the facility or the fact that they want to do all care within the original apartment. Floor plans were somewhat odd as well.
