Great place. Good people. However....Do not put your loved one here or any other INDEPENDENT senior living apartment if they actually need assisted living. I did this only temporarily while I waited out my grandmother's stubbornness and found the right place. It was still a ton of work on my end and it didn't save her much money over where she is now. If you're worried about the cost of assisted and want to do this and hire an aid service or one of the contractors in the building...depending on your loved one's ability and condition, it may not be nearly enough attention or help, and will probably cost just as much as the assisted option. I love the facility, and all the geese. Overall great place. But not what many truly need.

It is a nice facility overall. The best part about the experience was dealing with Connie Pryor. She was so wonderful with my mother and just such an incredibly sweet person. If we do not decide to go with Heritage Oaks, it certainly has nothing to do with her. She was so nice and helpful!!
My Mom and I both love the large one bedroom apartment that she rented. It is very bright with large bay windows and lots of closet space! I feel confident in her safety as there are pull cords in her kitchenette and bathroom with staff on site 24/7. They have recently installed outside security gates which is an added level of security. Heritage Oaks is very convenient for all her VA appointments and they will provide transportation as needed. It is just across the street from a grocery store as well as nearby medical facilities. Many activities are offered for the residents if they’d like to participate. Meals are provided and most she really likes. Her biggest concern has been the service in the dining room which is sometimes slow due to staffing shortages. Hopefully this will improve as the Covid situation improves. I do recommend Heritage Oaks to anyone that is searching for affordable independent living for their loved one.
An extremely pleasant and comforting experience. Would feel comfortable placing my loved one there. I intend to take them there and spend some real time there to get a better feel for the environment. The Director is a warm Christian person of faith who was passionate about her residence. I didn't feel that it was just selling for numbers or to meet quotas. The grounds were good and secure. There was genuine warmth show for me and my need,
My father has been living at Heritage Oaks for two years now. He is doing well even though he is handicapped. So many residents look out for him and each other. Everyone is pleasant. The room is comfortable and has an at home look and feel. Dad recently moved into a smaller room and really likes it. He is very comfortable at Heritage Oaks and does spend time outside in the rocking chair. The rocking chairs in the breezeway area serve as a social gathering. Certainly a place to be for a "breeze". There are plenty of things to sign up to do, anything from games, exercise time, church services, trips to groceries, banks and places to eat so you have time away. The dining hall is spacious and the food is nice. Dining hall staff is very cordial and serves with a smile. Our special lady is "Rosia". Another favorite is "Tina". Amazing lady she is! She does it alis Each room is cleaned by a nice, friendly staff. The management team is amazing. Special mention to Connie and Jean. They certainly run the place with much pride and Grace. Joe greets you at the front with a smile. Come on in, take a tour and know Heritage Oaks can be your next home.
