Sommerset is the best
I find Sommerset to be a very nice place to live. The apartment I live in is very comfortable. It is cleaned weekly and the bed linens are washed and returned. The food is quite good for a facility like Sommerset. There are numerous activities, trips and weekly entertainment.

Sommerset was chosen by a relative for me and after hearing stories of other retirement communities that were terrible and didn't offer half the activities Sommerset offers, this was the right choice. I am really pleased with the staff, the activities, and the effort that is made to make my permanent home as pleasant as possible. The food is plentiful and good.

Menu's need to be changed so its not the same thing every week! Need a variety of different things. Pizza should be listed not just for lunch, but every other week. People are getting tired of the same thing every week. Change is what is needed. I am telling you like it is.

Wonderful life at Sommerset Retirement Community
My mom moved into Sommerset in [date removed]. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff and how attentive and helpful they have been. My mom has the meal option, and enjoys a several-course served meal each night of tasty food. She loves conversing with the other residents at her table. This has been a great independent living arrangement.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Sommerset Retirement Community

Sommerset Retirement Community offers 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Sommerset Retirement Community 9.8 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.
