3 Independent Living Communities in Beverly, Massachusetts

Alison

My in-laws are residents of Colonial Gardens Gracious Retirement, and it's a wonderful place. It has a spacious dining room, lots of activities planned, activity areas, and a garden space. They've have singers come in, play bingo, do crafts, go to a movie theater, and so on. The staff members have been super sweet and very supportive. My in-laws were really excited about having moved there. The meals are really wonderful and have a wide variety of options.

Theresa

We visited and it's a great facility for working-class seniors. We saw the rooms, dining rooms, and the common areas. There seemed to be plenty of space. However, the staff didn't initiate contact, and there were too many floors.

Paul

My wife is at the memory-care unit. The staff members are typical caregivers from any other senior places we've looked at. The facility location and the rooms are fine. They have three different-sized rooms, including a 2-bedroom and 1-bedroom. Some are a little bigger than others. My wife is fine with it, but it's not that mentally stimulating.

Sherry

It was very nice. I liked the way it was set up and the fact that the community was not too big. The staff was very knowledgeable and nice. The dining area was also nice.
