Living Environment

Cleanliness & Maintenance: Most reviews mention the building and grounds are well maintained and clean, though a few note occasional issues with odors in memory care.

Atmosphere & Community Feel: Residents describe a welcoming, active environment with many chances to socialize, participate in activities, or enjoy quiet time in their apartments.

Safety & Security: Residents and families generally feel safe, with emergency alert systems and 24-hour staff, though some express concerns about timely communication during emergencies.

Family Experience

Families visiting Crest View often notice a bright, homey atmosphere and staff who are pleasant and engaging. However, experiences vary—some feel well-supported and confident in their loved one’s care, while others report frustration with communication, especially during health crises or transitions in care needs.

Care Approach

Crest View emphasizes round-the-clock support, with nursing care available 12–16 hours a day and a 24-hour call system. Staff assist with daily living activities and medication management, and the community coordinates with outside healthcare providers. While many residents and families feel cared for, some reviews point to gaps in communication and consistency, particularly during complex medical situations.

Value Consideration

With monthly costs starting around $4,800—below the local average—Crest View offers a range of care options and amenities that can represent good value, especially for those seeking independent living with the option to transition to higher levels of care. However, families should weigh the cost against occasional concerns about staffing and care coordination raised in reviews.
