Wonderful Staff and Spot
My sister was recently at Homestead. From the first time we stepped inside we were made to feel like family. Everyone was honest, friendly and went out of their way to make her (and us) happy with her placement. The only reason she left was she wanted to be closer to home, otherwise that would have been her "home" for many years to come.

I just walked in to check out this location for a possible new home for Mom. No appointment, not knowing what to expect. Was introduced to the Director of the facility. She took the time out of her busy schedule to give me a quick tour and give me helpful information about the facility. It was a very impressive facility. Clean, beautiful setting overlooking a panoramic view of Lake Champlain. The tour really helped make our decision easy for our family and my Mom. Thanks so much!

Homestead Senior Living is a great facility with great care for their residents. They have so many options for activities that can suit the needs of any of the residents. Through my time being at Homestead I can see that the staff have deep relationships with each resident as they are always cracking jokes and checking in with one another. I have been very grateful for everyone interaction I have gotten to have at Homestead because everyone is always full of joy and curiosity. This is a wonderful Senior Care Facility because of their thoroughness and intention with everything that they do.

Whenever I walk into the Homestead Senior Living facility, the first thing that strikes me is how warm and welcoming it is. I've spent a fair amount of time with residents in the living room area on the first floor and in the second-floor activities area and have always had a wonderful time with residents and staff present. [name removed] [name removed], the Life Inspired Director, is particularly gracias with her time and attention and as professional as they come. I always enjoy visiting and will continue to do so.

A Happy Home
I visit Homestead once per month as a musician entertaining the community. It’s a joyous time and most join in singing with me. Recently, I visited Homestead with my best friend. Her parents are living at Homestead for about a year and I visited them in their apartment. It’s a lovely apartment; just right for the two of them. They are very happy and enjoy the care staff, the meals and the activities provided by the staff at Homestead. They have made several friends and feel as part of the community. They are very happy with their decision.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Vermont regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Vermont regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Homestead Senior Living

Homestead Senior Living offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.
A Place for Mom has scored Homestead Senior Living 9.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
