    Very nice place for Seniors to live....with the exception of the changeover to new service providers for phone/internet/tv DISRUPTION, which has/will create much confusion among older residents....all of which was un-necessary to begin with (jmho)

    Over 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 ...

    Nice 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.
