The place is very pleasant to view, but the care is somewhat lacking, even when you are paying $900.00+more for extra care that my Mother often does not get. The length a person has to go to get them to assist you or change their standards is often very upsetting because you are already having to deal with a family member slowly lose her life. I do feel that some of the patient care givers try very hard, but some just don't know how, or don't give a damn. We already realize that we have to take what Mom says with a grain of salt, as her memory is failing, but the things we can see with the open eye everyone should be able to see, and we have told them we will pay more to get her all the help she needs to keep her comfortable and as happy as she will allow herself to be....She is now on Hospice, and I hope things will improve. (She does not participate in the activities)

Sadly, Dad is not happy here but the staff are doing their best to get Dad motivated. The community is doing their job at caring, keeping things clean, and provide activities. They even set up a casino trip because my dad wanted to go to one. I would like to see more interaction or companionship between the staff and my dad.

My father is no longer at the community. This is a decent community, but they have a lot of residents with high care needs. The staff was very busy often. I had some issues with the lay out of the community. They did provide nice care, and I was pleased with the food. It was just an extreme environment, with a lot going on.

My wife is now in hospice care at this community. My experience in this community has been okay. The staff is very good and they are caring for her very well. The community looks great, they keep everything nice and clean. They do offer nice activities for the residents. The food is nice, she enjoyed the meals. I am happy knowing she is being cared for the right way.

They did well in trying to care for my Father-In-Law. He was a difficult person as far as his eating habits. We supplied sheets, towels, clothes, and an expensive mattress cover. A lot of these things came up missing. They need to do a better job of keeping up with the residents personal belongings.

Bozeman Lodge is a friendly place, located community in Bozeman, which mattered to me and ultimately, it helped me make a decision to go with this community. It is a new facility that is also well kept. Another plus for me, because I do not have to replace or repair things. The community is really clean and friendly.

Rachael the marketing director was very nice and more than helpful. But the rooms were to small to accomodate my mothers wheelchair and bed. I do not see how my parents could share the space.

I only knew this one in Portland. They are understaffed. They promise things they don’t deliver, but the activities are wonderful. The staff is wonderful. Food is not healthy- it’s high fat and there are no fruits and vegetables.

Found the facility clean and the staff very pleasant. The one draw back is no kitchens so if you like to bake or cook some of your meals you are out of luck. Apartments were bright and quite spacious. The food so so, and not a lot of choices on the menu.

They have been making a lot of mistakes and there seems to be a lot of issues going on. I just don't feel that my loved one is safe. They have had equipment failures and seems like the biggest problem is a lack of communication between the staff. The food here is not great and our loved one does not like it here.

Studios only in Tualatin, no openings in Beaverton, no vegetarian food

clean, quiet, modest therefore more manageable $ wise. I was surprised that the room comes empty, but not a show stopper. They have 2 private rooms available. I was also surprised by their business model: they charge a base rate + they charge u for every little thing: diapers, shower help, feeding help, medicine dispensing help etc etc. Also they have the RN on site only 20hrs/week, which they say is legal. The RN has been w them for 10yrs, this is a plus. Bathrooms are shared w other residents.

Visited 5/28/2010. Dogs allowed. Internet may be free as in Tacoma, but on edge. No air conditioning in the room, only in the hallway on the top floor. Residents seem to be comfortable, enjoy the staff and living there. Staff were very casually dressed which seemed to fit. No kitchens, but they provide a small refrigerator and microwave. Amenities only seemed to exclude telephone. Building needs significant upgrading inside and out. I was surprised to see that director supplied a two page list of additional places in Tacoma to visit.

Looks good,can't find any photos of facility.

A very nice facility and exceptional staff. I found that the complex being of an older design did not provide apartments with an adequate kitchen area... small appliances and in a closet so no real kitchen that would provide for an easier transition from a home to an apartment.

Nice facility. No Dr that visits the site.

Basic rate $ move in fee, 250 pet.

worth a second look if need be was nice

For the amount of money we expected more. Folks never followed through on requests for fixes to items in the room, walker failures, etc. Room was dark and depressing. The assistants were very pleasant. Because of COVID, did not expect many activities..

I toured Sweetbriar Villa. I found that the community was nice and clean, but it felt too cramped, and I thought that a wheelchair would have a hard time fitting comfortably in the halls and doorways. The place just wasn’t as open and bright as what I was hoping for.
