Cameron Hall of Canton
4.6
It's been a good experience.We chose Cameron Hall because it was not "all fluff". She doesn't need high ceilings and wide open spaces-too far to walk, and unnecessary. They spend their money on important things for residents, not "visuals" for the visitors. Very comfortable and home-like
