Recent reviews for independent living in Thornwood

Bellaire at Stone Port in Harrisonburg, VA

4.5
The major factors were the size of the community. It is small enough to not be intimidating. The other huge factor for my brother is that it actually has a decent size group of older guys who eat together, watch sports events together and keep each other company.

Gypsy Hill Place in Staunton, VA

4.8
I would recommend this community. The value for our loved one was there. The community has all retirees and a bus service that comes to the door of the residents. The meals needs to be improved due to price. The community changed ownership about a year ago, and they were making changes.

English Meadows Harrisonburg Campus

3.7
Experience has been, for the most part, good. I still have some things that I need to figure out or speak to someone about, and honestly, I would love it if there were a community much closer. I would definitely recommend it.
