Resident & family reviews
4.5 · 11 reviewsI would highly recommend The Homesteads. They were truly a lifesaver for our family. They became part of our family. While my father passed this past November, I would certainly recommend them to anyone who asks.
The Homesteads is great. The Homesteads is truly a 'family' atmosphere and Dad is doing much better there than in a traditional nursing home setting. Although we don't really have anywhere else to compare it to. Dad has settled in nicely and we are confident that he is safe and well taken care of.
This was a great community for my loved one. There were only 4 residents in the community. It felt like a family atmosphere. There were a lot of caregivers available to care for the residents. The meals were home cooked, and they tried to accommodate my loved one's meals requests. The staff were patient with our loved one and making our loved comfortable. The staff communication with the family was wonderful. They kept us updated about any concerns or changes about our loved one.

The Homesteads owns and operates 4 separate homes. Each home has their own name. My mother lives at one of these homes and then there are 3 others with their own staff. It is all family run and it is amazing. they have been in business for 20 years and they are very close knit. Their ratio is one caretaker to 4 residents, never lower but might even be higher on some days according to needs. I would give them much higher than a 5 if I could.
They do a really good job with keeping the community clean. The staff is wonderful. The care is excellent. My mother can be aggressive at times as a result of her condition. The care giving staff does a great job of handling her when needed. At her previous community, they were unable to help her through her aggressive episodes and as a result, didn't do well with her care. The staff at The Homestead has been great and treat her very well. Both my mother and I are very happy with the community and I cannot say enough good things about them. The owner who has had the business for over 30 years has a lot of experience and that is reflected in the care. They always call if there is ever an issue. It is a wonderful place. They even send me pictures of my mother just to show me how happy she is! They also have dogs to keep the residents company. Would highly recommend The Homestead to anyone!
Three years ago when it became apparent that my mother could no longer live alone, I started a search for placement for her. The Homesteads immediately came up. After extensive research, I called and met with [removed], the owner. She is a warm and caring woman who, because of 25 years of experience, knew exactly what my family and I were going through. After touring the home, meeting the staff, and experiencing the warm, family environment we decided to place mom there! She is still there receiving wonderful care and is happy, healthy and safe! I recommend them highly!
I had a great tour of this community and was pleased with how welcoming the staff where to my loved one and I. They had a great floor plan that was east for my loved one to navigate through with lots of great amenities available to all of the residents. Overall it was more of a location issue for my my family and I.
price was good; had two yeppy dogs that would not work for my wife,rooms were a little small. do not think a shared room would work. Porch and yard appeared to be good for walking and sitting outside for bird watching. owner did not appear to be dressed professionally and said hello but then was not available was to be going shopping but then saw he during the tour pass bye. will will revisit in March
