From the first day I walked in The Summit, I noticed how clean and neat it was and everyone I met was very pleasant and welcoming. As I was shown around I was more and more impressed. They offer many, many services and activities. An excellent retirement community.

My mother lived at The Summit, in Independent Living, for her last 7 years. She loved it there! She was a very social person, and the environment created there was perfect for her. Scott Thomas (activity director) always had various events planned for the residents to participate in. From concerts, to shopping, to various "field trips" - there was always something for everyone. My mother developed a wonderful new "friend network" while at The Summit. She had a beautiful apartment and often entertained her neighbors in it. She also met with friends in the pub for happy hours. Again, Scott Thomas was instrumental in making sure things were set up and ready for the residents when they came to the pub - and always greeted them with a smile on his face. Thank you, Scott!!!

Memory care has been treating my mother exceedingly well. However, and for the reviewers who say the nursing staff is terrible, this is not a nursing home, it is assisted living, and while the care staff are wonderful, they are not set up to have a lot of nursing care. There is always a nurse in the building but I dont know how they remain as knowledgeable as they are about all of the residents. And the food is excellent! Even with dietary restrictions!
July 2020
Im currently an employee at The Summit and I absolutely LOVE my job. As with any job it has its challenges. But Ive never worked in a more caring and nurturing environment. Getting to know the residents on a more personal level and becoming like family to them is the most rewarding part.
May 2020
THE Summit facility and staff are wonderful. From the moment we walked through the door for the initial tour with Quinna, our independent living experience continues to be very positive. Quinna, Latania, Lisa and Henry are outstanding. The food is great too! Resident Chef and Wait Staff provide a consistently great dining experience. Overall THE Summit offers the perfect combination of professional, kind staff and a beautifully maintained facility.

My mother is a resident of The Summit. The care and concern exhibited by the staff has been nothing short of amazing. They are responsive, organized, extremely pleasant and helpful. The assisted living area is beautiful and the wide variety of activities offered is very appealing. I am totally confident that my mother is in good hands.

Lots of activities for residents, and their families, to keep both mental and physical faculties engaged.

I made a trip from Pennsylvania to see my cousin in the dementia unit . There are no words to say that can explain how much I was impressed with the facility and the staff . Not only is my cousin loved and cared for with great professionalism but we were also treated the same . I am a retired geriatric nurse of 45 years and I have worked in many facilities and this is definitely a 5 star.

The staff alone makes the 5 stars a must! So friendly and accommodating. I have worked with some of the dearest residents the past couple of months and I can tell you, it's my favorite class that I teach. Always look forward to coming here.
