Our experience with Merrill Gardens Renton has been nothing short of wonderful. The only thing that fell short was availability, which is outside of their control and a sign that they are caring for their residents who want to stay there. When availability was limited, they referred us to a sister location in Tukwila which has been working out great. Getting our deposit back was easy and prompt. I highly recommend Merrill Gardens in general, with the Renton location being a highlight among their offerings.

Just over 2 years ago I walked into Merrill Gardens - Renton, for a tour. And it happened to be on a Saturday morning which is donut-day. My reaction was a combination of happiness and sadness. Happiness at the sight of the residents lined up and teasing the person handing out the donuts (trying to finagle more donuts) and just the playful banter. The residents were engaging, happy, playful, and friendly. (With me too.) The sadness only stemmed from the thought of my mother no longer living independently. The place was exceptionally clean and not just surface level nor was there any piped in 'smell' to masque anything. You could see and smell the cleanliness. And this was for all areas of the facility - dining, workout room, movie theatre, studio I toured, ... There are always going to be challenges, in any relationship, and we've had a few over the 2 years. In the scheme of things they were minor. I am giving MG a 5 because every issue I've brought up has been addressed, and done so professionally. I also want to give a major shout out to the culture Shelley has created - I am always greeted kindly and everyone always asks about my Mom. They know her by name. The front desk team is incredible. The head chef, no matter what her day is like (and I can only imagine) always has a smile and takes time to engage. The staff in the memory care unit have definitely started operating like a team under the new Director; someone is always engaging with the residents, the main living area where they spend most of their time is very clean and organized, and they often move the seating around to create nooks for those who want more solitude and quiet, and then areas to engage as well for projects or tv/movie/music time. Knowing that mom is well cared for allows me to breathe easier. And it also allows me to be fully present with her when visiting, versus spending time on what I refer to as 'administrative or logistical' issues regarding her care. All of the above is why I also voted for MG for Best of Renton!

My mom fully enjoyed her time at Merrill Gardens. She had a wonderful community of residents, staff & medical providers. The staff is professional, sincere, caring & go the extra mile for each resident & their families. The place is very welcoming, clean, smells good & feels like a very nice hotel. My mom loved her delicious breakfasts in particular, fresh baked goods & fresh fruit cups. She enjoyed the activities too including the Nutcracker, Dollar Store trips, movie nights, bingo & the Renton High School concert during Christmas. My sisters & I were at peace knowing that my Mom was very well cared for & was happy at Merrill Gardens. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you Merrill Gardens for all of your love, support and encouragement while my Mom was there. We are SO grateful to you!

After visiting multiple retirement communities and having experienced a good spot for my own mom elsewhere before she passed, we knew we hit a home run for my sister in law when we visited MGardens of Renton! We visited multiple times spontaneously with different family and each time came away with amazement of how friendly, happy and positive both the staff and residents are! It's a real tribute to the management of Shelly, Debbie and the crew. This community has an established track record of over 15+ years and it is very evident. We couldn't be more pleased. If you are looking you MUST put MG Renton on your places to check out. You won't be disappointed.

We just attended the Thanksgiving gathering/dinner at Merrill Gardens yesterday. It was fun, festive and the food was fantastic. All the staff from the top down are on hand greeting people when they walk in, serving, and circulating saying hello to the residents and their families. I can’t say enough positives about this place. It was one year ago that our family was searching for a new home for my sister. I am so glad we/she landed at Merrill Gardens!

Merrill Gardens is truly a gift to seniors. I’ve volunteered at this community for several years, and every time I visit, I’m reminded of how special it is. The residents often share that their biggest challenge is choosing which of the many activities and events to attendthere’s always something fun and engaging happening! The food is delicious, too. The leadership team has been here for many years, and their heart and commitment really show in every detail. The community is clean, well-organized, and the check-in/check-out safety protocols give great peace of mind. A truly wonderful place to call home.

I just had Easter Brunch with my mother, a resident of Merrill Gardens in Renton, WA. We both had a wonderful time, thoroughly enjoying the great food, beautiful decorations and festive holiday atmosphere that all of the staff helped to create. Shelley and her team always do a great job making all of their residents feel special. I am very fortunate to have my Mother living in such a wonderful, family environment.

My Dad moved to Merrill Gardens about 3 years ago. He was living at home by himself. He is very happy at Merrill Gardens. His health has improved, he is more social, gets more exercise and is very well taken care of. He currently is living independently and it is comforting to know he will be able to age in place and won’t have to move again.

Journey Home My wife, Joyce, has Alzheimer's. After 3 years of my being her sole caregiver with no support services, we moved to Renton, Washington to be near relatives who wanted to be part of Joyce's home support group. Shortly after the move, Joyce's condition worsened. and we needed a retirement home with a memory care unit. We had no knowledge for picking a retirement home and had a very short window. My business experience said I should look for financial stability, services Joyce needed, close to relatives, and "felt" right. The last criterion was a gut call. And the only acceptable outcome would be keeping my wife healthy and happy, but only time would tell. After a whirlwind tour of 7 retirement homes we decided on Merrill Gardens at Renton Centre. Everyone we met there seemed happy, especially the employees. We visited several times, with and without notice. It always felt right. Merrill Gardens explained everything, even things we didn't know to ask. The premises were pristine. Their two buildings were part of a single first floor structure that made moving from one to the other simple. Their restaurant had a full menu that changed daily with open seating from 7 am to 7 pm. Their activity schedule was enormous. They had two gyms. They had several outdoor terrace gardens and many indoor local gatherings places. I could go on and on, but they can explain it better than I can. The best was yet to come. My wife moved into the memory unit, called Garden House. Within 2 weeks the anxieties that had plagued her during home care were gone. She made new friends and she was happy. Very happy. The 24x7 care and state-of-the-art protection proved to be a game changer. I didn't know what to expect before, but I was blown away by the positive changes in her. Everything improved. Her attitude, eating, dressing, bathing, taking medicine etc. The care givers didn't just take care of Joyce, they interacted with her. They sat with her to get to know her. Made sure she was integrated into activities. They became friends. Joyce had found a new home. There is a PS to this. I wanted to near Joyce so 2 months after she moved into Garden House, I moved into the Independent Living section of Merrill Gardens. I had been very stressed from taking care of Joyce and then downsizing our belongings. Merrill Gardens made my transition as easy as possible. They sent meals to the rental home I was working to empty and close down. They recommended places for donating items. And they recommended a moving company, RR Move, that specializes in moving seniors. RR Move turned out to be the icing on the cake. I had selected an apartment in MG, but dreaded having to move-in and figure out where everything went. Joyce was good at this, not me. The movers were amazing. When I showed up at the MG apartment everything, and I mean everything, was in its proper place. All the furniture was where it should be. Artwork was hanging where it should be. Closets and cupboards and cabinets had the right things in them. Even the dog beds were in the right places. It was like coming home to a cozy place where I had lived for years. It made the transition as smooth as it could possibly be. It has now been several months since we moved into Merrill Gardens and I feel very lucky to have chosen them for our retirement home. Joyce is still as happy as she can be. I haven't changed a single thing in my apartment and love to be in it. If I had 5 stars to give Merrill Gardens, I would give them 7.

I just wanted to take a few minutes to give an honest review of the Renton Merril Gardens. My dear mother in law has been here for the last 5 plus years. It has been a positive experience for her, the outings, the special events, the cleanliness and care they all give is wonderful! Shelly, the head director is such a hard worker and really cares about all the residents, she works tirelessly, and is so kind! Heidi the event planner and working with her is Debbie and Keri, they all work seamlessly together and put all the touches on food and event decorations to make everything feel so special! They have been a great help to our family as we are planning my mothers 90 th birthday party, their love and care for the residents can't be missed. I feel so grateful for all of them and to know that my mother in law is in great hands.

Father's day luncheon was excellent. Favorite was the beef brisket that apparently was cooked by the Merrill Gardens Kitchen staff on their smoker the day before. It sounded like they spent a lot of time to be sure that it came out good, and boy did it ever! It was excellent! Thanks for you focus and efforts to make a special day more special.

Having a loved one develop progressive dementia is heart wrenching. When the time came for our family to look for an assisted living facility, we were told to observe the mood of the staff and residence during the tour. This was the best advise we could have been given. During our tour, nearly every resident and employee at Merrill Gardens Renton appeared happy, and or content. The facility has every amenity that you could want, is clean and well maintained, and the food is excellent. Most of all the staff are very supportive and caring, they are like family to us.

We had the pleasure of being neighbors with Merrill Gardens in Renton for three wonderful years, and it was a truly unique experience. To top it off, my husband started working in their kitchen, which allowed us to get to know their staff even better. Everyone at Merrill Gardens was not just polite, but helpful and kind. They made us feel like a part of their extended family, always willing to lend a hand. It was a two-way street of support and care. We had the pleasure of watching Merrill Gardens grow during our time there. They started with one building, and then they expanded to build another right across the street from our apartment. The growth was impressive, and it mirrored the growth of the warm community they fostered. Our years in Renton, living across from Merrill Gardens, were filled with fond memories and positive interactions with the staff. It was a pleasure to see this community flourish, and we're grateful to have been a part of it. I can't recommend Merrill Gardens highly enough for their kindness, hospitality, and commitment to their residents and staff.

I just moved my mother into Merrill Gardens. I chose it after visiting 5 properties over the past couple of months and it felt right. (It was well maintained, they had lots of activities, the employees were so nice and seemed to care about the residents, and most importantly, the residents seemed happy.) My mother has been made to feel so welcome this first week from adding her photo to a big display with the other new residents to escorting her to meals and finding her groups of people they thought she would get along with. They have also been so supportive and helpful to me over the past few weeks as I have slowly moved her belongings in. It really feels like a home.

They are always available to help when needed or just to chat and make you feel better. The surroundings are beautiful but comfortable. There are always friends in the large open living room either playing games or just enjoying the ambiance. The food is good and the dining room is open all day so one can eat whenever.

Merrill Gardens at Renton Centre is truly a blessing for the peace of mind I have for my mother. She has been a resident there for 2.5 years and I am grateful for the abundance of personal loving care the staff at Merrill Gardens show towards her/residents. I appreciate how Shelley and Lilia keeps family informed of everything that goes on activities and other pertinent information especially during this time of COVID 19 since I/we are not free to enter the building now. They have been so good at making sure that their community is free of any cases of the virus asking that we all follow protocol as needed.

My mother has lived at MG Renton for over 5 years. During that time she has transitioned from being fully independent to needing quite a bit of assistance with tasks of daily living. Throughout all the staff has been very caring and helpful. When things do come up, they are very responsive to my questions and concerns. It's a very welcoming place and I really feel that all the staff have the welfare of residents at the forefront of their approach. They have been really careful during Covid and their precautions have successfully kept the whole facility safe and virus free!

My mother just moved into Merrill Gardens about a month ago, right after my father recent passing. Lilia was the one who helped us and greeted us to Merrill Gardens. We instantly felt a connection with the staff there. Everyone made it feel so warm and welcoming. We could not be more happy with choosing Merrill Gardens. I feel extremely lucky that we found this place for my mother. I know this is somewhere I can see her living for the rest of her life. It has a sense of community, so many activities, walking distance to just about anything you need, trails along the Cedar River, the food is good, the personal communication between the staff and myself,.. I can not find one single thing that I would change or give it anything less than 5 stars for. I would give it 10 stars if I could. There is No place better. Top notch!

My mother lived at Merrill Gardens Renton Centre for 11 years. It was a very good senior residence choice when she first moved in, and has has continuously improved over time. When she moved there in her early 80’s she was independent, still driving, shopping, visiting family and friends, etc. She just wanted to downsize and simplify in preparation for the future. Over 11 years time, existing and future aging and medical issues would gradually slow her down and reduce her mobility and independence. But the many friendships she made over the years, both with residents and staff, sustained her quality of living. She passed recently, but was able to stay in familiar surroundings in her apartment through hospice care. The care and support given by the remarkable staff during this difficult time, from top to bottom, was amazing. We are grateful to all the staff at Merrill Gardens for the dedication and compassion, and love, that they consistently bring to work every day. They richly deserve a Five Star rating.

I have many relatives living here and whenever I visit the staff are so friendly. When we are here for brunch, you can tell they put a lot of time and effort into making it inviting for all of us. They greet my grandma with genuine sincerity.

After much research on assisted living facilities from Seattle to Bellevue, NewCastle to Kirkland and finally to Renton my siblings and I have placed our mother in a temporary facility while waiting for availability at Merrill Gardens in Renton. Our mother has been living at MG at Renton for 4 months now and we have no regrets except praise for Shelley, Lilia and their wonderful staff. The location is not far from the center of Renton yet tucked away on a quiet street. The environment is extremely kempt, spacious, functional, invitingly attractive but most importantly there's a very warm and homely feeling. A resident could take long walks outside for fresh air on the second floor patio all within secured railings and without going outside of their compound. Their versatile monthly activity list includes something enjoyable for every resident. Each holiday or season would bring special events, i.e., live performances. There is no set time for meals so residents can choose when to have breakfast, lunch or dinner between 7am - 7pm without having to worry about missing a set scheduled meal time. Their food is made of fresh quality ingredients and there is an abundance of fresh fruits for the residents at all times. The chief chef, Heidi, polls for likes and dislikes from the residents and works hard to prepare and serve palatable meals. All staff members are well trained on being service oriented so you won't find a a discourteous staff member. My siblings and I are grateful to the team that runs Merrill Gardens in Renton as we know our mother is in good hands. Thank you very much.
