Terra Bella is a great place for my parents. My mother is in memory care and my dad is in independent living. I am pleased with the community and the directors. Of course every place is not perfect but they have a staff who is loving and concerned with the care of my parents.
Brookside Commerce

The Director went out of her way to help get my dad in quickly. He is in the cottage and it is huge. I can't believe what all he has for the price. I'm really pleased with the whole experience so far.
