It's never easy to make the decision to place your mom in assisted-living but finding the Eldercare Cottages made it easier. It became really clear to us that our mother's needs were greater than we could meet. We started the difficult process of finding a great place for her to live.
We felt so fortunate to find the Eldercare Cottages. She has been there for awhile now and the Staff has been phenomenal. From Cathy the top Administrator to Chrystal the Clinical Nursing Supervisor to the wonderful Staff of Caregivers we couldn't have found more competent caring people.

I have been working as a professional in this community and have been thoroughly impressed. All of my co-workers comment to me that the care provided is so compassionate and loving and they would trust their loved ones life under the care of Elder Care Cottages. Not only is it family owned, it is also a very intimate care setting.

My grandfather, who is dealing with dementia became difficult to handle. The cottages didn't want to deal with him so they kept trying to kick him out. This is why he is in the cottages, because they should be trained to deal with this, but no. They then said he had a fever and difficulty breathing and labeled him with Covid. This sent him to the hospital and now he can't return. They got rid of him alright. They also have not informed anyone else in the cottages that someone had covid there. How did he get it? No one can visit, so it had to be the aids. But are they informing other families that

Elder Care Cottages has allowed my mother to be the very best she can be in this season of her life. The day-to-day caregivers are dedicated, hardworking, sensitive and willing to adapt to the individual needs of their residents. It wasn’t easy to find a facility that accepted Family Care Medicaid funding without first being private pay for years. Another feature that was not available at other facilities was the secure locked buildings. This works both ways, to keep residents safe from wandering and for staff to be aware of who is visiting. We always feel welcome. It is truly a home for the

My siblings and I cannot believe the incredible change we have seen in our father in such a short time since he’s been at the Elder Care Cottages, specifically the Rosewood Cottage. Our father struggles with Alzheimer’s and this is the happiest he’s been in a very long time. He is now talking, very animated and engaged in conversation with all of us. He was clean, shaven and just so happy. He was so excited to tell us about the “nice girls” helping him and the wonderful food he ate. He also had a new friend sitting with us which was so wonderful to see him actually socializing and making

My Grandmother has been here for almost a year now, she has dementia and being that this place lists itself as a memory care place, my family thought that she would be safe here. She has fallen multiple times and hit her head at least twice on two separate occasions. The first was within the first few months and the most recent was on the 1/2/19. They have threaten on multiple occasions to kick her out unless we paid them more. The price Started at $4,000 a month and now they want to charge us close to $6,000!? For as many times she has fallen, they shouldn't even be asking for 4k, and I wonder

I have had the opportunity to volunteer at Elder Care cottages several times. I love it there. The thing that separates them from others, is the open concept. The long community table dinning table is right next to the open kitchen, opening living room area. Everyone can see and is near everyone else. Talking, chatting.....at the same time. Activities was a highlight, fun easy projects...As caregivers walk through the area, they stop, say hi, hug....no separate rooms to go to, love it, love the people there.

When our parents were ready to be cared for by assisted living we looked high and low for the right fit. We were so happy to visit Eldercare cottages. First as you can tell by there name it is centered around cottage living, a small home like atmosphere with very personalized attention. It is located in beautiful peaceful surroundings. Functions are held in the central community room with large kitchen in each cottage. Meals are all home cooked by a chef that prepares the most delicious food. We are always impressed by the wonderful meals that are being served three times a day. Residents and staff

My Dad, with dementia, lived at Eldercare Cottages this summer until he passed on. The facility is recently built, clean and well maintained. The staff was friendly, caring, concerned, and responsive to Dad's needs. Dad seemed happy to be there. The staff kept me informed of issues as Dad's health declined. I'am grateful to everyone at Eldercare Cottages for their care of Dad.
