There are interesting activities and great entertainment to keep you as busy as you want to be - or not. I am so happy to live here.

The staff is friendly and always available to help. The kitchen serves good meals with a variety of choices. It is nice to have a choice of what we wish to eat. There is a range of activities you are able to do as much or as little as you want!

Both my dad and grandma have moved into Merrill Gardens, so we have become familiar with both the independent living and assisted living areas. We have had an excellent experience, from the management on down to every single staff member we have interacted with. Further, the residents there are all happy, and have really welcomed my own relatives. In particular, I want to call out the manager (Rob) as well as some particularly helpful folks in the kitchen including Chef Brandon, and waitstaff Jeff, Lilly, and Charlotte. These folks have been helpful and friendly every single day, and went above and beyond for a family birthday celebration for my grandma's 99th. Highly recommend this facility!
