The Landon at Lake Highlands

My mother has been at the Landon since July 2024 and I can't say enough good things about this place. It is extremely clean, the food is wonderful, the activities are plentiful and the staff is incredible. In particular, Mark Sheets has been a wonderful person to work with. From the beginning of meeting him during the touring process, he worked diligently to make sure he showcased why the Landon would be the right spot for her. After touring 9 different independent living communities, it was because of Mark that I realized the Landon was where my mother needed to be. He continues to show both my mother and me extreme courtesies every time he sees us. His willingness to continually go out of his way to make sure she is enjoying her new home puts my mind at ease to know that we picked the perfect place for her. Mark is without a doubt a true asset to the Landon. Whether one is dealing with Mark or any of the other staff, please rest assured that your loved one will be taken care of at the Landon.

It's difficult to put into words how much this place means to me. My Dad has multiple conditions that make living alone at home untenable. He is a proud and strong man who has achieved a lot in his life and leaving the home he has known was difficult. The change that has occurred in the 2 weeks since he came to the Landon has been like the dawning of a new day! Even in the context of "independent living" there is SO MUCH support here! Breakfast with the gang in the morning, supervised exercise and engaging classes in the early afternoon, field trips to wherever the consensus decides, cars available for reservation for errands, the quiet environment, capable security, chef prepared meals, on-site exam room for doctor visits, on-site salon, and the welcoming atmosphere for family and friends are just a few of the many features. It is like Dad was "awakened" and is much more engaged in life, is happier, and spreads joy to to others! The support has turned back his clock by years! If you have the means for this place, it will be a bargain to offer your loved one a space here. I look forward to my own eligibility for residence here!

I knew the first time I walked onto the property, this was a quality facility. Mark Sheets went over and above to address every question and concern. He and I toured the campus and discussed what it would take to move my mother out of her home of over 50 years. I knew mom would need to be close to the dining room, so location was critical. A recent vacancy was to be ready for viewing in about a week. I viewed the same floor plan further down the hall and felt it would be adequate for mom's needs. When mom and I looked at the apartment, there was immediate interest in exploring this option further. Mark then offered us to have lunch and experience the food first hand. That closed the deal! The food is delicious, the residents are friendly, the few pets residing there are adorable. Mom has not been this happy and comfortable in a LONG time. She is walking more than before for her three meals a day as well as her two happy hours a week. Mom says- " I feel like I am on a cruise!" We can not wait until cooler weather to sit out on her beautiful balcony and watch the sunset together.

I never thought my mom would be so happy. From day one the staff in the entire place have been outstanding. Her apt. Is lovely, the surroundings are beautiful, the maintenance thorough, the food better than a 5 star restaurant - everyone aims to please. The confidence of having her in such a safe, wonderful place is an answer to our prayers.
