I love this community ❤️

Although I just moved my mom into Sable Lodge a few days ago, I am really impressed by the friendly and attentive staff (especially the new live in managers, Rachel and Rick). And the food is 10X better than the food at The Enclave in Scarborough. Great start!

I saw Sable Lodge. I like the kitchen and the apartment. I like the fact that there were different places to gather. I like the fact that you could have company and have a section where you could eat. I felt like I was on a cruise ship. Definitely more spacious. Obviously, I prefer that one. When we walked through, it's like they were surprised and they were celebrating birthdays, so we were able to see that. There was a little bit more activity going on at the time. There was a possibility to put a washer and dryer.

It has been tough here since the lock down since were were a very congenial group of seniors who liked to get out and about. With no trips out or indoor activities including dining it has been hard to stay connected. Our Lifestyle director Angie has tried her best but their is something about "facial feedback." I myself like to look at a person's face when I speak to them and just cannot abide a mask so I stay apartment bound unless I have to make a mail run or go off campus. During this time my husband passed, so it has been twice as difficult. I will say that is and I can hardly wait to get back to eating off of real plates and forks.Surely there is some thing that can be worked out where we can use the real dishes. The care of the building has gone down a notch in the last couple of months, both inside housekeeping and landscaping on the outside. It is almost as though as long as you do not have to show off the building, why keep it at top notch for the residents. Just saying.

This is my dad's home. He loves it!!

My daughter Elyssa Johnson loves working here and all your awesome residents!
