Pleased overall
We are very pleased except that the medical on site is unreliable and now leaving the building which leaves us in a difficult situation. Staff is great. He says the food is good as well.

99% of the staff is very friendly and helpful. There is just one office manager who is not nice. Activities are wonderful. She really loves her apartment layout, neighbors, kitchen staff, all is wonderful. Just one office person makes her stay a bit of a bummer.

This is a place where your family or friends can feel that you are safe and there is always someone to help. Elmhurst is always clean and has a lot of activities if you want games,living room area where we get together and visit. Parties for birthdays every month. Price is also reasonable.

We were a little nervous about placing our mom in an independent living facility like Elmhaven 2 years ago. Since then, her experience at Elmhaven has been exceptional. She has made friends and been able to participate in a whole host of activities that have kept her engaged and active. We also cannot say enough about the exceptional front office staff. Because we live in florida, the distance was a major concern for us. If we have ever had questions or concerns about your residency, we have been able to contact the front office and they have been the professional, polite and immediately responsive. Their communication is absolutely first rate, and they seem to truly care about the residents. The facilities itself are clean, safe and extremely well maintained. Overall, we couldn't be happier with Elmhaven and the entire staff.

I’ve only been at Elmhaven Manor for a few months but I’m finding it to be a great place to live. Staff is great and treats us with respect, apartment is cozy and charming and other residents are very friendly.

This facility is independent living, 55 and above. You have the choice to participate in things. They have a full calendar of things to do for the month. Some residents still work. About 50% participant in activities. They have a bus which takes them to the grocery store and local shopping centers if you don't drive. The apartments are very nice they have maintenance people to take care of any problems. Staff is very friendly. They have people that will clean your apartment and do your washing if you need them to do so, for a reasonable price. This is one of the most reasonable priced facility in area. The facility has just celebrated its 20 years. There are many residents that have been here for over ten years. The only draw back is the food /meals, there is breakfast on most mornings and dinner Monday thru Friday. You have a full kitchen and can cook your meals for yourself. Only 10 to 15 people eat the meals. You pay by buying tickets for your meals. I like the facility and would recommend it to others. They also have people to assist some residents in things like showering and meds, if needed. If there is an emergency, ambulances and police respond very quickly.

What we like the most about Elmhaven Manor is how pleasant everyone is. It is a very clean atmosphere and the apartments were very nice and roomy. I believe the safety of all the people was in good hands. Thank you for your help.

Busy, entertained, and fun people. Love staff. Love seeing everyone interact with one another. On wed we get free coffee and donuts which we all love. The crafts are always fun and the activity directed always thinks outside the box.

The staff isn't quite as friendly...the person who gave me the tour didn't seem at ease with me. I can't help but compare it to [community name removed]. [community name removed] was offering a special: no activity fee, which would've been about [fee removed]. One thing about [community name removed] , they only require 30 days notice to move the 30 days can be given mid month. This was one of the reasons we were able to move my father-in-law after we realized we needed to save a bit more money. Elm Haven Manor had a move-in special which was first month free. However, you sign a one-year lease as opposed to a month to month lease. If you break the lease before the year is up, you owe a little bit more than a month rent in penalty. Not a dealbreaker for most people, but just a difference that mattered to our family and our circumstance.

I'm currently a resident at Elmhaven Manor. I like it here so far and my apartment is very nice. This facility is a retirement community. They do have housekeeping. What they do not have, if you need it, is constant care. They do have a way of checking on people who may be fall risks. There are help/call pull cords in almost every room. They have multiple activities so you can participate in what you want. The meals are once a day are good and they will deliver to your room. The cost is $13.50. You buy tickets to use for each meal and don't have to eat. Use them when you want. They do control amounts that you receive. The meals are a little high on starch and sugar content. This is a very good facility I would recommend it as long as you are mobile and fairly independent. Most of the residents are over 65 and some have been here as long as 15 years. This facility is not cheap, but in pace with other facilities in this area.

I'm currently a resident at Elmhaven Manor. The cleanliness at this facility is great. The staff are wonderful. I have not attended any activities because I feel that a lot of the residents at this facility aren't friendly. Also, the resident community is not culturally diverse at this facility.

ElmHaven Manor is not assisted living, so if you or your family need that, look elsewhere. But ElmHaven is an exceptional place for retirees. We have a great activity director, and there is always something going on.

They do very well with planning activities, games, and food, but it would be nice for them to put plug-ins in the hallways sometimes there a little smell on the first floor. I love their courtesy.
