Our experience

[name removed] is amazing. Unfortunately I dont remember her last name. She is the first person you deal with. She is very honest and tells it like it is. [name removed] will also still help you even when her part is due. It is very clean. The food is ok but depending on when you get served it can be anywhere temp wise. They provide light housekeeping. I would derinately recommend it. We looked at several places and are very happy here. [name removed] was amazing and made the whole process very easy.

My experience

My overall experience is okay. Most of the staff is nice and also friendly.. however when something needs to be done in your apartment it could take a long time and nagging to get it done. I don't believe they replaced the activity director or (don't quote me on this) but some residents have taken charge of activities. Meals are a source of complaints from the residents. The meals and food are repetitious and not all that. great either. People do say that the breakfast is the best meal of the day. I was told they had transportation to doctors and stores when I signed up but apparently there were problems with the transportation bus and I believe that it's just getting straightened out. I almost sold my car but I'm glad I didn't because I would have felt like a caged tiger since my studio apartment is very small. I'm not trying to bring the place down but there needs to be improvement in those areas.

Diamond Ridge review

The staff is great. The food not so much. Too much rice and chicken. The place is very clean and the lady who cleans the apartments on my floor is a sweetheart. I live in a studio which is very small with too little storage (at least for my taste.) Otherwise, there's a walking trail that goes around the buildings which is nice for getting outside and taking a walk. There is parking for your vehicles.

My wife and I visited on behalf of my mother who is 89 years old. We met with [Name Removed] a lovely woman, who spoke enthusiastically about Diamond Ridge and what it could offer my mother. We were then taken on a tour and shown the main features of the residence and we were shown a few of the apartment options. My wife and I were both impressed by the staff, activities offered, facilities such as the library and activities room and by the cleanliness of the building. We were happy that we went and I am comfortable that the facility would provide what my mother needs. We will return in April and take my mother along for a tour to see for herself that this would be a nice place for her to move into. Thanks[Name Removed] for the lovely tour. Bob and Karen St. Onge

This is a very nice place. It provides everything a person needs in one price. They have 3 meals a day, doctor transportation, shopping transportation and even light house keeping. The rooms are a little small but there are planting of lounges and activities. They even have a church

A Friendly Quiet Place

Unlike [community name removed], the hot food is always hot. It's quiet here and people are friendly. There is also a service here for people who need extra care like assisted living. It is separate from the regular cost but it is very affordable compared to assisted living in Vermont.

Diamond Ridge

No care needed - don't know about others. Staff are wearing too many hats - they need more staff - lots of stuff not getting done in a timely fashion. The meals and dining is horrible most of the time. Very few choices of what to eat. Occasionally it's good. Activities are no better than those provided at an assisted. The rooms are very nice but I do not feel I get my moneys worth in the food category. Overall I would not choose to be here - when my finances are stabilized I will probably look for a place elsewhere

Review for Diamond Ridge

I don’t take part in many activities and usually stay in my room. I like it here, and [name removed] has been wonderful and helpful. I’m most comfortable when I’m alone and at peace.

Would not recommend

Little or no security, bus keeps breaking down, ONE maintenance man for the entire bldg, housekeeping inconsistent, no outside activities, garbage sometimes piles up in laundry room, this place is nothing like their website or what was promised during initial tour. Many residents stay in their apts, only coming out for their meals, many have serious mental and physical challenges requiring MUCH more help than Independent Living would provide, stolen items from mail room, little socialization. I've given it a year's trial, but now I'm leaving for another senior facility that will "fit" my needs and my personality.

Our families experience is great definitely friendly staff very nice community!

The experience was very good. Sue reached out, inviting us to tour and have lunch. But most of all my brother in seems very happy there and is doing more then he's done years. He's gone from laying in the bed most of his day to Socializing, going down to the dining room daily, making friends. He even travels out and about. We've really seen a change in him. So to sum it up I'm so glad we found Diamond Ridge for him!

Slowly becoming a Nursing home

I been here for over a year now & I used to love it here but I am not happy here anymore. I stay in my apt & keep to myself. The only thing I like is my apt & my patio. They aides here to take care of those who can’t take care of themselves. One aide has to hand feed an elderly man his pills in the dining room & I see more & more people who need to be in a nursing home, they are not independent at all. They don’t turn away people because they want the money. The food is atrocious & is not edible most of the time. This is not what we’re paying for & if we need them to deliver meals we get charged for it, I think they charge $[removed]. For what we’re already paying for. Allot of times it’s way too salty & overcooked. The veg are like mush. I’m paying almost $[removed] a month. I’d love to move again but I’m not up to packing up again at my age. It is definitely not an independent community anymore. If anyone is looking to live here, please turn around & look somewhere else.

A nice community with friendly staff

All fives. I'm very happy you found this place for me. What I like the most about Diamond Ridge is the friendly people, good food and the price. Yes I would recommend this community to other families. There are support services here that make living here comparable to assisted living but at a fraction of the price

A great, quiet community to live in

It's very peaceful here. I'm from the country and this is closer to country life but with the conveniences of the city life. Meaning you don't have to travel fast to go to a store. Everyone knows everyone and watches out for one another. My apartment is very roomy for me and my pets or even a couple, can manage. I have a studio with a patio to take my dog out as many times as he wants or needs.

Not what we hoped for

My aunt is not happy there and is moving out. Staff is very shorthanded. Almost everyone complains about the facility. We have found the maintenance staff to be very helpful. I know they are trying to correct some of these things.

Great Place

My Mom's experience there has been wonderful. Three meals a day along with housekeeping once a week is great. There are a lot of activities to do. Great staff and nice residents. They are doing renovations to make a nice place even nicer. My Mom really loves it there.
