The pictures on the Website are nothing like the Place. Run down and if you look in the back some balconies look like they are ready to fall down. They don\'t have a full staff. the staff there are rude and self-serving. When I visited the Janitor was serving lunch, how hygienic is that? No activities! Showed me a schedule, but none of those activities were being done. The couches in the main area were dirty, old and in dire need of replacement. I was shown a menu and it was filled with comfort food and starches. No way would you consider it health. The apartments are small and very expensive for a place that offers no service. Walking down the hallways smoke from tobacco had a strong smell. I asked the lady who showed me around and she said it was a non-smoking community, but she smelled of cigarettes. Speaking with a few residents most were not happy and had a long laundry list of complaints.

We visited Echo Ridge for my mom, and we really liked that one. That was independent and everybody had their own little apartment. There were a lot of people up and about and they were very active. The staff was really good. Everything was well kept up, nice, and clean. They have a dining room, a barbershop or beauty salon, outdoor gardening, a walking path, and a lot of different things to do.

I'm now living at Echo Ridge. I moved here two weeks ago. I'm fine. I'm in a 1-bedroom apartment, which is nice. They offer 2-bedrooms, too. I've seen activities, but I haven't participated in any of them. Meals are good. The staff members are very nice. They have a walk that goes around the building. The pricing is competitive.

I didn't care for Echo Ridge. It's an older facility and I didn't care for the environment or the people. I saw one room, but I didn't care for it. It was old and it didn't fit my needs because it didn't have a kitchen. I walked past the craft room and there were people doing crafts. I think they had some games and things going on.

Echo Ridge was very pleasant for the services they provide. It's convenient. The staff that I interacted with was very knowledgeable and very friendly. The residents there that spoke to me seemed to be extremely happy and satisfied with their services. The calendar was very fulfilling for people in different stages of older age. It's excellent. I had lunch there and the food was excellent.

We visited Echo Ridge. It was very peaceful and surrounded by forests and nature. They also have a little spring of water running through certain places outside of the apartments. I spoke to some of the residents and a lady over 90 years old that they did many research of other places and Echo Ridge is the best one for the money. They had walkways all around which was very appealing to me, you walk around with all the nature. They also have a very nice dining room.

Echo Ridge was a beautiful place with great people, and the director was a wonderful person. I have nothing bad to say about it. The place was absolutely clean, and the rooms and the property were nice. The menu looked really good. I would recommend it to any family.

Echo Ridge is a wonderful place. I'm very impressed with it. My dad's room is nice, updated, and clean. The food is very tasty, and there is a wide range of options to eat. They have puzzles, bingo, entertainment, movies, shopping, and parties. They have balconies, coffee bistro, well-lit areas, covered patio porches, and free internet. The staff is caring, friendly, and go beyond their job. Echo Ridge is worth every dime my dad pays for what he receives.

We visited Echo Ridge, it's nice, however, we did not like the staff member, because she placed too much pressure on us. The location is good, and the grounds were nice. The apartments we saw were very nice, fully furnished with a laundry room and kitchen. We were there for lunch, and the food was good. They always have activities, they have outside entertainment, a library, game room, and just about anything you could want to do.

My visit to Echo Ridge was very pleasant. It's fairly new, I had lunch there, and the food was excellent. I was very pleased with what I saw. The staff was very helpful, very pleasant, and introduced me to the housekeeping people. It looked very well-run, and very organized. They serve three meals a day, and the people are welcome to come in anytime and get food. They do housekeeping, and have transportation in and out of town.

Echo Ridge is a very beautiful place with beautiful grounds. Everybody was friendly and the people we sat with at lunch were very nice. We really liked it. The only thing we didn't like was the traffic getting there. We couldn't afford it because the price it was too high for us. I like the rooms. We looked at a second story room with a nice balcony and a kitchen where the table was in front of windows, which was nice. We loved it.

I visited Echo ridge. I saw a studio and the rooms were small. They have activities -- I saw ladies doing mosaic work and some guys playing cards. They had a library and viewing room for watching TV and movies. The staff was very courteous and knowledgeable. They have a very attractive and well-kept courtyard, and a very clean building.

Echo Ridge was very nice with good amenities and atmosphere. The residents spoke up, too. They had a pool table and a TV lounge. It needed updating, but it was suitable, just not exciting. They had social get togethers and showed us the availability of snacks and coffee. They played cards and billiards, and went on outings to pick up groceries.

I was very impressed with Echo Ridge. The person who showed me around was very friendly and answered all of my questions. I liked the units they showed me. The whole feel of the place was really good with really nice grounds surrounding the place. The price was reasonable, too. They have in-house nurses and doctors available if the residents need extra help.
