So much fun

I have been here for a couple years now. This is the best place I have lived in. I would never go back to where I was. I can do all the activities, the food is great and tasty. The lady that takes your monthly rent is a sweetheart, the manager of the building is kind and caring. The maintenance person always puts a smile on my face no matter what type of day I am having. I am very grateful for these people.

Top Notch

This place is out of this world. I couldn't imagine another place for my sister. We have been participating in activities until she moves in as we are in the process of moving her from another state. The staff has been so helpful and helping us through this tough process.

If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Beautiful place in a nice location. The staff is great. The directors are always so helpful and caring. The maintenance director will do everything he can to make sure that the apartments are maintained and up to par.

clean facility

the building is spotless inside. it does not smell like other buildings that i have toured. every corner was very clean as i specifically looked in areas where people normally do not clean and there was no dust or anything. carpets are outdated but clean. the food was delicious and staff was smiling and greeted me well. Nice place.

Lovely Place

Small facility, but perfect size for someone who doesn't want to be in a bigger facility. The staff is kind and takes great care of the residents. The residents are well dressed and always are presentable. The facility smells very good and is clean. Cleaner than any other place.

Wonderful staff and director

A family member of mine is at this facility and i stopped by just to see them. I was so impressed at the helpfulness of the staff and how clean the facility was. Passed the white glove test for sure! But what really shocked me as it being my first time in the Director herself took time out of her busy schedule and left a meeting to personally eacort me to where my family members room was. Also showing me all the facility’s many benefits and accommodation’s. Great beyond great place! 10 out of 10 definitely recommend!!

Helpful caring excellent staff

I show up at all different times to see my Mom. There is always someone there helping and watching. I will always recommend this facility. The staff is top notch. They also have great food. They help my Mom eat when she is having a bad day. The common areas are clean and open spaces. The activities are interesting and encouraging.

Love Vista Lake!!

"I cannot speak highly enough about the care and support provided by Vista Lake. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the staff genuinely cares about each resident's well-being. The facility is clean, and the amenities are top-notch. The personalized care plans ensure that each resident's unique needs are met with compassion and professionalism. The community is vibrant, with a variety of activities that keep everyone engaged and social. It truly feels like a home away from home. I would highly recommend Vista Lake to anyone seeking exceptional care for their loved ones. Thank you [name removed] for being such a great Executive Director!!

Great place for care for a family member in Lake County

Our mother moved into Vista Lakes in July 2023 after looking at several facilities in the Leesburg/Lady Lake/Villages area. This was our choice for her after initial visits due to the interviews with staff and touring the actual facilities (and advice of [name removed], community services liaison). Vista Lakes is not fancy (though they have recently completed remodeling in last weeks which have turned out lovely) but it is a clean and pleasant home-like atmosphere. Our mother is in the memory care building (which is separate from the more independent living building). As in all things in life, nothing goes perfectly smoothly, but it is how you react to issues that arise that determine your reputation. In the events that have happened with our mother, the staff of Vista Lakes has been thoroughly and competently responsive in meeting our expectations.

Compassion is key.

My Grandmother fell ill and was placed was in a bad situation with previous care givers before she came to Vista Lake. My family and I are very limited as far as care giving and finances. Vista Lake gave us an ear, sympathized with our dilemma, and worked with us regardless of the financial restictions we had. The staff went above and beyond to insure that my family did not feel powerless in regards to the safety and care of a beloved family member. My grandmother still resides at Vista Lake and loves the people that care for her.

I'd tell them is affordable for what you get but it's like any place - it's not perfect.

definitely would NOT recommend

This was all based on 2024. Staff changed did not take good care of my mother in law. The food was awful and my mother in law went down to 50 pounds rapidly. They need to hire more people who really care about the patients and it not being "just a job." They no longer encouraged her to eat or even get out of her bed. They are completely understaffed and on weekend might only have two people for both buildings. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

The director [name removed] is a wonderful person and as usual the staff is a reflection of the leader. The food is great and we love that there are alternatives if you want to order something different from that days menu. The rooms are spacious. There is a garden courtyard with bird feeders. There are many activities. The residents go out to lunch or to the park occasionally. There's a medical employee on-site. The hospital is practically across the street. They bring in live music. We're very pleased with this location.

best care in the state

We noticed a review and decided that it was time for us to let you know how happy our mom is at your community. The doors are not propped open. The managers are always there. The executive director travels between two communities but she gives both all of her undivided attention. Every time that i have reached out to her no matter what she has always answered us. (and i am a family member that does not hold their comments back) And yes the managers do work, they work hard to make sure their residents are taken care of, so we don't mind if its a caregiver or a director taking care of our mom, because in the end she is receiving the best care. They go above and beyond. I am always here and i speak to other families and they are happy as well. If i had to move mom all over again, i would continue to come back to Vista Lake time and time again without any hesitation. So before you make a decision on negative reviews always remember that the positives always outweigh the negative
