One of the first things that is impossible to miss when you walk into this community is people gathering. Friends talking and neighbors connecting. I was warmly greeted by a front desk receptionist (I believe Jackie is her name) and given a tour of this community by the amazing Kelsey. It was warm, it was friendly, it felt like a brand-new community but in the heart of Auburn. I don't think I could have had a better experience. Excited to come back and visit again!

I don't live there I never have but I live across the street from it. It's a senior apartment building but do not have any unit laundry facilities. You have to go take your clothes down to a laundry room. Not my cup of tea if I can avoid it. They seem okay. I know somebody that moved over there, but have yet gone inside of an apartment. Just going by others telling me what's there and from the outside and looking in. Seems to be ample parking though which a lot of these places don't always have. Edited 01/22 26 I wish I could have just replied to the owner of Merrill Gardens. I went back and read my "review"... And so when you invited me to come see the homes you have, I literally said out loud .... 'touche'! Lol. Let me say first off I did a review like this because of Google badgering me for a review 🤦🏼‍♀️.. I walk my dog so it thinks I'm going there a lot 🙄 😮‍💨 I thought it would leave me alone ... Also I wanna say I'm sorry... I only mentioned the laundry facilities because if ,like I said, from people telling me this.. I am actually upset with the gal that told me this when she moved there 2, maybe 3yra ago. That's not cool. Well, again I really apologize for how I came across... I was upset with Google, and should have realized these ratings are a big deal. Or I am assuming they are. I have yet to do the one here where I am🤷🏼‍♀️, though I was asked and said I would. 😬😒 Our manager started @ October 2024, so it's time. 😊 I may just have to take you up on that tour !! I will have been here 6yrs May 1st. Lived in my last place 10&1/2 yrs. My rent is almost 500 more than when I moved in in 2020. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I hope I made more sense this time. I gotta figure out how to get Google to leave me alone lol. I hate these devices. 😂🤣 Take care.... Nice to meet you! 😊

My mom lives at Merrill Gardens Auburn and loves the community. The apartments are beautiful, the staff are so welcoming and friendly. The lobby and dining area is just gorgeous - feels like you are in an upscale hotel. We couldn’t be happier knowing she is living in such a nice environment.
