Moving Mom Easy

My mom visited a couple of places in the area she wanted to live, and liked Winding Commons best because it isn’t too big, the residents and staff are friendly and the price fit her budget. The move was super straightforward and she likes it more as time goes on.

We love our new home and so will you!

All of the above are a 5. I love Winding Commons. Everyone is friendly and helpful. It's clean. The food is really good. The staff genuinely cares about the residents. It has given our family peace of mind knowing that my husband is in a safe and lovely place.

Care when needed

We are happy to have someone to help with the care that when it is needed. The community is clean and she enjoys living here with other nice residents. This community will help and do small errans when asked for. She likes that she is able to cook meals on her own. We would recommend this service and the community to other families for good care.

A good tour!

I toured many communities and one being Winding Commons. It was a very nice community. All of the staff were welcoming and the tour guide that took me around the building was knowledgeable and friendly. It was a good experience, but not the best for my loved ones.

Housekeeping

My housekeeper does an outstanding job. I believe she goes above and beyond. Don't have to ask her to sweep balcony, she just does it. She is speedy and very efficient. She is very special.

So far so good!

Everything seems to be going very well with my grandmother since her move to the community. The place is very clean and the staff is all very friendly. The food, for the most part, is very good but there are occasions when it could use some improvement. Other than that, we are happy ith our choice.

Review of Winding Commons in Carmichael, CA

I moved into this community 3 years ago. The first time I saw it on a tour it felt like home, and continues that feeling to this day. Staff is extremely helpful and takes care of all my needs. The dining room is well run and caters to special diets. The grounds are lovely and well-kept. I can't imagine living anywhere else. Our activities director keeps us busy with fun activities.

GREAT +++

At age 84, my wife 79, and I need to be aware of living choices so we have visited Winding commons many times since it is near our home. Winding Commons is a very friendly and fun place to spend an hour at their Open House. Dance Band, Singing Groups and Social Hours. The Staff and Residents are all so Friendly and it seems to be a JOYFUL community of Seniors!

Review of Winding Commons - Carmichael, CA

My mom and dad moved in here two years ago and they just love it. We looked at several communities and when we found this one we just loved it. The activities here are great for them and the food is great. We found that the monthly rent was also more reasonable.

We have lived here for years and found this ideal place for seniors. The atmosphere is very pleasant. People are like family - many activities for the residence to participate in. Ford is great and the place is always clean. The staff here are the greatest.

I've toured the community with my family, everyone at the community was very friendly and welcoming. We really enjoyed the "art gallery" event on Sept. 19th, it was very noticeable how hard the staff worked to set-up this event.

great place

The first day my mother moved in I attended a meal with her. They called her by name, greeted her kindly, and made it clear that she was welcome and at home there. It is really great place and I would highly recommend Winding Commons.

I think it's great! It's clean and the staff is friendly. They are pretty responsive, and I think they have a good amount of activities going on. Other than that there really isn't anything else that I have any concerns over.

Nice looking place, but not what we needed

This was a very nice looking place. It was very clean, and the staff we met seemed friendly. However, this location was solely independent living, and my loved one was in need of some care. We would definitely have considered this place if we were looking for independent living options!
