My parents recently moved into an independent living cottage at Covenant Woods. They love it! The home was renovated prior to them moving in and they were able to design the interior (floors, counters, paint, cabinets etc), and it is gorgeous! They will consult on your move and have specialty movers to assist. Maintenance is very responsive and will hang TVs and pictures, etc. The amenities are excellent! They love the food and all the activities. It is a first-class community and we highly recommend it. My Aunt has also lived here for years and loves it as well—exceptional accommodations, services and staff.

My husband, our dog, and I moved to Covenant Woods over two years ago to live in a cottage. It was wonderful to down-size to this smaller space and not worry about the responsibilities of home-owning. That was especially true, because I was care-giving for my husband who has Alzheimer's. About 6 months ago, the inevitable came to pass. Because of his dementia and the wandering that developed, he had to move into Memory Care. Now, he is receiving specialized care and, still in Independent Living, I can walk over to visit him in five minutes . I've been very happy at the way the staff here care for residents and never more so than when our county experienced a Water Crisis, losing all water services with no warning. Somehow Covenant Woods kept us supplied with bottled water and food, though the stores had run out of water, and food prep without water is no easy feat! Personnel including top administration stayed into the nights delivering door to door. The maintenance staff drained part of the pool water and brought it by and flushed our toilets. Can you imagine such service?! Our kids live thousands of miles away, and we don't see them often, so it's priceless to have the kind care that comes from people who are truly compassionate and concerned and not just motivated by their job descriptions. Friendly residents, great food, excellent exercise classes, paths to walk in the woods round out the picture of a space where I am SO grateful to live.

My father has had two stays in the Healthcare facility for step-down rehab. Both times he has been placed in the memory care unit. My husband and I have attended the "get acquainted tour" to determine if their concept fits our needs. The tour was impressive and the facilities they shared with you looked great. However, my recommendation for anyone thinking about investing for the total care concept should observe how the patients are routinely cared for and treated in the memory care unit. I have very quickly decided that when the time comes for us to need 24 hour care, we will hire private duty nurses to take care of us in our home. Due yourself a favor and observe the Healthcare Unit (all individual services offered) prior to making a long-term commitment you may regret.

Response from the owner

We appreciate your feedback. However, we do not provide short term stay or rehabilitation in the Memory Support neighborhood. Residents are given opportunities for moments of pleasure, peace, and purpose through engaging programs and are provided personalized care and services from our dedicated, specialized team of professionals and volunteers. Residents also enjoy interacting with Jett, our labradoodle, who lives in the neighborhood as our household therapy pet.

Covenant Woods is good until you go to assisted living or memory care. They do not follow the medical plan. They do not walk the residents. Residents fall all the time while the CNAs sit in the main room on insta or tik tok. There is only one nurse for 2 floors. They feed diabetics mashed potatoes with garlic bread and give them pie for dessert. Get the picture? I am hiring someone to take care of me in my home when I am ready. None of this.
