October 13, 2025We enjoy life at The Manor. We have a separate Dining Room where we can eat if we want to. We have a fully equipped kitchen and individual clothes washing. We also control our own heat and A/C. People are very friendly here and there are activities that we can participate in. There is also a bus that takes us to various places around the area.Review from Apartments.com

June 5, 2025Over the past three years as a satisfied resident at Manor2, I've much appreciated the "quiteness" of my apartment (location). Overall I'm pleased with the productivity and kindness of the staff members. In this community of about 250 residents, several staff members remember and call most (all) residents by their first names!! The amenities are excellent with all utilities except phone included in rent. I've always been impressed with the quality and variety of daily activities that residents ...can participate in!! Dorchester=Manor is an impressive community for Seniors to reside at. SR 06-04-25Read MoreReview from Apartments.com

May 26, 2025Nice place to live. Activities are great. Staff is very good . Personal is so good to me. All activities keep us going . So many things offered to enjoy in dining room. Wish dining room was open on weekends. When you don’t drive not easy to have food available to eat.Review from Apartments.com
