My mother lived at CherryWood Village for three years - first in Independent Living and then in the Royal Anne wing (Assisted Living). We chose CherryWood because my mom used to do visitation there, so she was already familiar with it. They cater to vegetarians like my mom and provide church services on both Saturday and Sunday. She also had friends living there. We trust Cherrywood and we knew it would be a good place for her. The management and staff at CherryWood were very nice and had positive attitudes. CherryWood has lovely buildings and sidewalks where we went for walks. It also has a courtyard with lovely landscaping and my mom had a designated garden raised bed of her own. My mom enjoyed the activities at CherryWood, especially travelogue programs, weekly bus rides, and crafts. On the con side, CherryWood Village is in a somewhat declining area of Portland. It can also be hard to find a parking spot for visitors. I moved my mother away from CherryWood because she needed a higher level of care, so even though CherryWood also has a Memory Care unit, it seemed like a good time to move my mom closer to me.

What our family likes the most about the Paradise Village are the variety of different activities they have going on for the residents there. Also we really like how everyone at the community is very friendly. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to others.

Based on the experience we have had so far, some suggestions for improvement would be to expand the communication to the residents via email and/or texts.

What we like the most about this community is the staff team, they are wonderful! All issues we have had are addressed immediately and things are kept so clean. Based on the experience we have had so far with Paradise Village, we would recommend this community to other families.

My husband and I live in Carmel Village at Clovis Senior Living. Everyone knows our name and is super helpful. We are in an Independent Living Cottage, but I have met many residents in the Assisted Living Facility and they seem very satisfied.

We toured Montage Creek when searching for an Assisted Living Facility for my loved one. This facility is gorgeous! Our tour was great. The cleanliness, friendliness, and staff were all great, also.

The employees are very friendly and helpful. The building is very nice and keep spotless. Lots of open space. There is always something for the residents to participate in. My relative even though she is younger than most, the residents have alway made her feel welcome. Inviting her to sit for dinner with them and when she passes someone while getting around, they always say hello. She has joined a club and is very happy.I am so impressed by this community that I would live there when I feel it is time.

We give a 5 rating on all areas so far. The staff is good but they need more help usually. We live in the independent cottages and they are perfect size for us. I would recommend Montage Creek to others looking.

Location, facilities, staff. My loved one got very good care from the staff and Hospice. Also, my loved one was not there very long before they passed. I appreciate what they did for my loved one.

It's a very warm and inviting place. Everyone there is great to work with, it's just a really good place.

My loved one has been at Carmel Village at Clovis now for almost 3 months and it has been a great experience so far, we have no complaints. This facility was our first choice and it has turned out to be a great one. I would definitely recommend the facility to others looking.

This is a very nice place for an elderly parent to be. We feel very confident in their care that they are providing our loved one. We couldn't have more peace of mind with the staff and our loved one being in their care. My loved one has had a nurse check on them a couple of times. The meals are good and a variety of meals offered.

They wouldn't take my loved one due to medical reasons.

Our tour with Carmel Village was great! They offered a lot but we felt the facility itself was too big for our loved one and the size made it feel less homey.

I can't say enough about CherryWood Village. It's the most amazing place I've seen. My loved one had pretty severe dementia, and all during Coivid, the care they gave her was just incredible, even during an outbreak in the facility. They were able to keep the Covid cases isolated, and my loved one never contracted it. They provided visits through the window. They made it the best they could, as good as it could possibly be under the circumstances. When she took a turn for the worse, we brought in hospice. So I was able to go in and be with her during that time. I have never seen more compassionate, caring people in my life, taking care of her, trying to feed her. The one thing I felt at all levels from the manager to the staff, is they preserved her dignity all through the dying process and made every accommodation they could. I would have absolutely no reservation recommending CherryWood to anybody who has a family member with impaired memory. Even during Covid, they managed to have activities and kept people engaged and tried to keep them as vibrant as they could. The food was really delicious, and I was impressed with how they presented the food and helped the residents eat. It's a private, family owned business, which makes such a difference compared to the larger corporations we experienced previously. CherryWood has a lot more attention to detail in keeping the residents comfortable and maintaining compassionate staff.

Given Covid, there were no activities, and little visitation. But that was outside the control of the community. Overall, the care they proved my loved one was incredibly sensitive to the fact that she had dementia, and was completely non-judgmental. We had been in previous non-memory care communities that viewed dementia behaviors as problematic. As soon as we moved to CherryWood, they were like, "Oh that's just dementia." They were very supportive and did everything they could to meet her where she was.

We chose Cherry Wood Village because my mother walked in and looked around and said I love this place. I talked to the support staff and they were very friendly. The care staff were very diligent and loving. She absolutely loved the food, there was a chef on site who prepared meals. They had 2 dining rooms, one for fancy and the public and one for casual for the residents only. The facility itself was very attractive, it looks almost like an ocean liner inside. It is located a block away from the hospital as well. I would recommend the community.

I was given a tour of the facility as well as an overview of the care given. A counselor answered all my questions. Best of all, the residents I encountered seemed very happy there. They had good things to say.

[Name removed] was amazing. She answered all my questions and showed the best cottage living home. It would be perfect for my parents BUT they ARE NOT ready to move at this time. I tried but dad says they are fine where they are for now. We are still talking to them. Thanks for the suggestion Best one yet.

We placed my mother in this facility and she could not be happier. [Name removed], the GM, is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. The food is outstanding, and the facility is very clean. My mother has found a new family, and now that she is in her final few days, the people care for her like she is their mother, not a resident. Do yourself and your loved one a favor and go tour the facility.
