I happen to take care of the maintenance for this building. Its a great place to work and i love the residents.
May 2024
My mom, who is 99 lives at Meadowlark. It is a caring, involved community. If I could give them 10 stars, I would. If you are thinking of a retirement community, please check out Meadowlark. It is what all retirement communities should pattern themselves after.
April 2024
My mother spent her final weeks here and grandmother, her final months. I have nothing but positive things to say about every aspect of the facility and the staff. The food is delicious. I found myself excited to eat lunch with her any chance I got. The activities, the support from fellow staff and residents, everything. If you LOVE your loved ones, even if they may not have much time left, consider Meadowlark. I am forever grateful for the compassion, comfort, and care they have always shown. It's hard to find a place that cares so deeply for our elderly these days. This facility is unmatched. She made it just past her 101st birthday.

My grandpa moved into this facility recently and he loves it! Moving to a new place was a little hard but after getting a tour and being invited to all the activities while waiting on a decision made his choice so much easier! Andrea has gone above and beyond to make him feel at home and I know she is a major reason why he chose this place over all the others. Meadowlark is TOP tier and is such a beautiful place! I can't imagine my grandpa being anywhere else! Thank you meadowlark for welcoming him with open arms!

I am their mail carrier. The staff makes sure the residents are taken care of, while providing a healthy & happy life. I have never seen such a happy group of adults, second childhood, maybe. I hope that I enjoy my retirement years as much as these residents do!

After one month, I am very happy with the experience my mom has had at Meadowlark. The staff answers all our questions promptly and are happy to accommodate any adjustments to make things easier for my mom. Outstanding meals and fun activities that my mom was hesitant about, but now looks forward to, have made all the difference. The social time at meals is priceless, and my mom is enjoying the company more than we anticipated. My mom feels safe and happy, and pampered, like she lives in a luxurious hotel! Thank you Meadowlark.... you have made this transition wonderful for our family.
March 2023
I have been delighted to live here for the last 2-1/2 months. The facility is spacious, clean and well maintained. The best part of being here is the staff. They are always friendly and helpful. The training and performance of the wait staff is truly jaw-dropping. They take individual orders from the diners and accommodate with a smile any possible menu alterations requested. The friendliness of the staff is mirrored by the residents. The relationships have developed into an atmosphere where the residents appear to enjoy their lives and care about one another. I would definitely recommend Meadowlark to anyone 55+ who is seeking a stress-free living experience with plenty of activities throughout the week and scheduled transportation for special events, appointments or just shopping.

My dad moved in last summer and it has been percent positive for him! He lives the food, the activities and the new friendships. The people there are kind and have created an made an amazing community.

My parents have so many great things to say about this place after almost 5 months here. That means A LOT coming from two people who had to transition from 63 years together on the farm. They love how light and bright the decor is in both their apt and the shared spaces (fresh paint and carpet, BIG windows in every room, wide hallways for walkers, beautiful and comfy furnishings in shared spaces). They are deeply appreciative of how much the directors Richard and Carol, along with Bob and Heide, are committed to the perspective "This is your home," and not "You are our tenants," and care about making a consistent, reliable space for all while remaining flexible to feedback and residents' individual needs. My folks have also been impressed with the cheerful care and hard work ethics of every single employee they interact with. Impressing my parents with your character and work ethic is no small feat. Our whole family is grateful for all the ways Meadowlark has welcomed them to their new home.

Meadowlark Estates has been the best for my mother! The staff is always friendly and happy to help the residents. The place is extremely clean and the food is exceptional in my opinion! Far better than other locations I’ve visited
September 2022
My Mom lived at Meadowlark from August 2020 to December 2021. I can't say enough good things about Meadowlark! Mom loved living there, from the amazing staff, beautiful building and grounds, great food, and worry-free lifestyle, her experience was outstanding. The family never had to worry a bit about Mom's safety or wellbeing. I recommend Meadowlark to all my friends. It's affordable and the perfect setting for gracious retirement living.
June 2022
Moved my in-laws there about 6 months ago, both about 90 yrs old. Can't say enough good things about the place and people who manage it. Decent prices, beautiful facility, clean & well-kept, bright & open with lots of natural light, tastefully decorated, great food, lots of practical amenities, great activities for social engagement and exercise, and over all of that Richard & Carol and Bob & Heidi are fully engaged, caring managers. The staff are consistently well-trained, friendly and interactive with both residents and guests, and genuinely caring and respectful. They want the living experience there to be positive, and it certainly has been for my in-laws. The experience of working with Richard and Carol and the staff there has been equally positive. We're so grateful for this facility and its caring staff!
April 2022
Meadowlark is truly a community where the managers and staff are caring and invested in the residents and there quality of life. There is a wide range of activities for different interests including outings provided on the bus. The food is delicious and there is a wide variety. There is a family like atmosphere and everyone watches out for each other. It's a great place to live and work.

If I could give Meadowlark Estates 10 STARS, I would! My father lived at Meadowlark Estates for several years. The facility is bright and cheery and the staff are amazing. They go out of their way to make their residents feel at home and they were like family to not only my dad but to myself as well! They encourage residents to interact and engage in activities and you couldn't ask for better amenities like the hair salon, laundry, theater, game room, etc. My dad's situation recently changed and he needed more long term care or I'm sure he would have lived out his remaining years at Meadowlark! If you are looking for a great place to live for yourself or a family member, I encourage you to check out Meadowlark Estates...you will not be disappointed. Thank you Bill, Kim, Carol, and Richard for all you do for your residents! You will be missed by my dad and by me as I move him into the next chapter of his life.
January 2021
My Mother lived at Meadowlark Estates for 2 yrs before we had to move her. This place is 5 stars out of 5. Great environment, good food, alot of outings. Bands come in to play music. Residents are treated with utmost respect. I recommend you seriously consider them if your looking for your loved one or yourself. We will miss Meadowlark always.
December 2020
My parents moved to Meadowlark in June 2019. Both were 91. After a month there, they both commented they should have moved earlier. The atmosphere is friendly, the food is good, activities are plentiful, and the hospitality is outstanding. Richard, Carol, Bill, and Kim including all of the staff do a wonderful job of running and managing the complex and go out of their way to make sure your needs are met. Not only that, but everyone looks out for one another so its kinda like a big family. I highly recommend Meadowlark Estates as a place you could call your retirement home.

Good amenities, fine food and plentiful.
