Oak Grove Inn in Montgomery, AL

Based on the experience I have had so far, the staff members working there are very helpful and surrounding. However they have some areas they could improve on so on the moment, I would maybe recommend this community to other families.

The Harbor At Hickory Hill in Prattville, AL

4.9
The staff members there are great, they really do seem to care and that it is not just a job for them. The residents are always kept so busy, the activities are wonderful. It is such a bright, cheery, and welcoming atmosphere

Summer Village Campus in Auburn, AL

4.8
I really liked the triplex design rather than a multi-storey apartment building. I have a much larger apartment than most I looked at, with a garage. The food is also better than some I sampled. All in all, it was just a good fit for me.
