I recently moved to Brandon Woods due to my husband's declining health. In the short time that we have been here, my husband has passed away and the amount of support that I received from both staff and residents alike was more than I had anticipated. Moving is a big decision and I have been so glad that I decided to move when we did.

I have the best of two worlds. I live in a town house on the grounds of Brandon Woods at Alvamar. Brandon Woods is a senior community just filled with amazing neighbors, numerous adventures, delightful and helpful staff and located in a beautiful wooded setting. Most mornings you will find me in the warm salt water pool (unique to Brandon Woods) located in the main building-lovingly call the Big House. There are daily events to choose from and often adventures away from Brandon Woods. Although not affiliated, an excellent PT staff is on premise. While the residents of the town houses have access to everything available at the Big House, we also have activities of our own. I am truly delighted to be part of this extremely welcoming community.

Dropped in to see if Brandon Woods would be a place for my mother-in-law. Was greeted by Donna as I walked in. She was very pleasant and welcoming. She invited me to take a look around with her sales person. I was impressed with the facility. The people there, all looked happy. I was invited back to bring my mother-in-law in to see if she would like to live there.

My Mom & Dad chose to live at Brandon Woods as they had heard so many good things over the years they lived in Lawrence before that. They lived in a Brandon Woods town home for a while and really enjoyed their experience there. Then when my Dad became very ill, Brandon Woods took as good care of him as they could through COVID. My Mom moved to an apartment and continued to enjoy many aspects about living there - the food, PT on site, Fit For Life exercises, book club, sing along music on Fridays, holiday parties and other excuses to get the residents together! She speaks highly of everyone from the dining hall staff to the activities coordinator, to the gal at the front desk, to the ease of use of the transportation services to the people in charge who go above and beyond to make her stay not just comfortable but "home". I am glad they did their research! They were right! Brandon Woods is/was a great place for my parents and so many others.♥️
