My parents have lived in Woodland Terrace for almost 3 years in the independent living facility. They were warmly welcomed and started getting involved right away. My dad joined a writers group and my mom joined the resident's board and exercise classes. They both enjoy going to the various music activities and having dinner with their friends.
The grounds and property are well kept. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. My family and I have joined them in the dining room on many occasions and while the food might not be wildly exciting, we always think it is good.
Overall, I like the down to earth feel of the place. Nice without being pretentious.

KATHRYN A. My Mom lived in Vera Springs/assisted living for about 1 1/2 years and has moved into the Arboretum/memory care wing for the past 14 months. She is loved and cared for very well. The staff always calls her by name, gives hugs or do a little dance with her, stop in to visit/check up on her and spend a moment to compliment her on her outfit, hair or nails, which she loves to hear/do and makes her so happy. The staff from VS, the Arb, and management also always stop to say hello to me/family and to let me know when they saw my Mom and what she was up to. The interest, concern, care and honest dedication is there daily. Yes, there are mistakes made but no place is perfect and I know that those at Woodland Terrace sure make the effort to make every day for my Mom a special, caring, and loving one which in my heart is wonderful and a job well done. So glad we found Woodland Terrace!

J. BRENNAN My husband has been a resident at Woodland Terrace for 3 years. I am so glad to report that he is being extremely well taken care of. The staff is friendly and very caring. I have talked to several families who did research in the area and found Woodland Terrace to be the best in the area. We are so grateful for the expertise that is carried through all aspects of caring for the elderly.

P. DEECE Stellar senior community, with openly caring staff, positive residential and staff work culture.... I've worked in healthcare for 25+ years, administrative and operational management, and am so excited for my father to live in such a positive environment. Not sure I've witnessed one any better..... We came here from a bad experience in another local facility, only to have a very warm welcome to facilitate a fresh start.... with extra attention paid to his needs and not even having to ask. The residents seem happy to be there, and conversations they have with staff sounds like old friends. You see smiles and hear laughter between them on a regular. So, reassuring to see and hear in an assisted living unit... on Mother's Day senior leadership was on sight just checking in with everyone. Very nice to see.... thank you for working hard at what you do....it shows on every level Woodland Terrace.
