Reviews LaurelHurst & LaurelWoods
August 2026
We have just had my Mom there a short time. However, the care has been above and beyond. The Memory Care unit is so clean and has the most creative experiences for the patients. It is a home life environment, but safe and secure for Dementia and Alzheimers patients.
July 2026
I frequently visit my Mom who moved in over a month ago. The staff is so nice and takes such good care of my Mom. I would highly recommend LaurelWoods for family members who need extra care! The price is reasonable, the food is excellent, lots of activities, and the facility is clean and decorated to bring cheerfulness to the residents and visitors. Very happy with our decision to choose LaurelWoods!!
June 2026
I've visited people in more than a dozen senior living communities over the years, across all types of settings, and Laurelhurst in Columbus, NC stands apart from nearly all of them. What makes that especially remarkable is the context. Columbus is a small, rural community in Polk County with no significant population base to draw from for staffing or resources. Yet Laurelhurst consistently delivers an experience that puts larger, better-resourced communities in more cosmopolitan areas to shame. The staff is genuinely attentive, and it shows in ways that matter. Activities are plentiful and thoughtfully organized. Transportation to medical appointments and shopping is offered generously, which is no small thing for residents who depend on it. The management team navigates an enormous amount with grace, and that tone flows through the entire building. The dining experience surprised me most. White tablecloths go out for the noon meal. Silverware is wrapped in cloth napkins. These are not small gestures in an institutional setting, and whoever made those decisions understood something important about human dignity. The meals themselves are generally fresh, thoughtfully prepared and generous, often with a genuinely good dessert option. Cooking for a full community means the occasional off night is inevitable, and anyone who has spent real time in facilities like this one knows that a missed soup course is not a crisis, it is Tuesday. The consistency here, given the staffing realities of a rural community, is something to be commended rather than nitpicked. Speaking of staffing, anyone who leaves a critical review without accounting for the reality that a small rural operation must prioritize assisted living and memory care residents first, and that a single person taking medical leave can ripple across an entire shift, is not offering a fair critique. Chasing perfection in this environment would require a staffing ratio that would make the costs unmanageable for the families who rely on this place. The value here is genuinely unrivaled. The location is idyllic and more convenient to healthcare and shopping than the rural setting might suggest. It is, without question, a hidden gem. To every person on staff, from the kitchen crew to the maintenance team who always seem to have a kind word and a smile: the families of your residents see you. We see what you work hard every day to accomplish. When someone has a difficult moment or a hard day and you are the one in the room, that is not lost on us. What you do is meaningful work, and the paycheck, while deserved, is nowhere near the full measure of it. My loved one is fortunate to call Laurelhurst home. Our family is grateful beyond what any Google review can properly express.

My dad and his girlfriend moved into the independent living apartments. The staff is so amazing and helpful. The apartment if far nicer than any we have visited in Henderson and Polk county. They had a very bad experience at a place in Hendersonville. But this facility is amazing and so much better than they experienced in the past. And far better than we expected. I am so happy they have been met with open arms and treated so well. The facility is so nicely decorated and clean compared to others we visited. I highly recommend Laurelhurst and LaurelWoods.
October 2025
Staff truly cares about their residents; I was proactive in the care of my Mother, and Laurelwoods was accommodating in every aspect. Excellent communication from all levels of management. Facility is clean, and well decorated. Food was excellent. I now consider the staff as family. Thank you for everything Laurelwoods!

Good. Making my dying grandma as comfortable as possible during her transition
May 2023
I just can’t explain how much I love and appreciate the staff here. To be honest I wasn’t happy about putting my mother in a facility and it weighed heavily on my heart until I came here and saw for myself how amazing every single staff member is. I hope the staff realizes how important that is to the family of the residents. I simply can’t explain how it lifted my heart with so much joy. I am truly grateful to each and every one here and you all will forever hold a special place in my heart. I pray God will bless you ALL always. Thank you so much for being so great to the person I love most in this world. Mary Jan Evans, Connie Nodine daughter.

I love visiting my grandpa, but the place could really use some music! It's so dreary and nobody talks to eachother during meals. Some music might make it better.
June 2022
Krystal, Amanda & Paula were wonderful throughout the entire admissions process. We had heard nothing but good reviews before admitting my mother recently, and Laurelwoods live(s) up to its reputation. The entire staff is friendly, helpful, supportive, etc. and my mother loves the food! The residents also are very friendly and inviting, my mother has made friends quickly and is settling in nicely. I can't thank everyone at Laurelwoods enough for providing such a lovely community. God bless you all for what you do day after day .....
November 2021
Krystal and staff at LaurelWoods have been nothing short of exceptional. They're always quick to respond, patient, and compassionate-- all critically important traits when transitioning a family member into assisted living.
August 2021
I continue to be overjoyed at the care my parents receive at LaurelWoods. Communication is always forthcoming and I feel assured the smallest details are tended to for not only their physical well-being but also their emotional well-being. Not an easy feat given Covid restrictions! My parents are healthier than they were when they moved in. They are also comfortable, content and quite attached to the staff which has quickly become extended family. I am so grateful!
June 2021
Great people and great food! My mom is very happy there!
March 2021
I would like to commend the Activity Department on all the fun, out-of-box activities that are offered to the residents. This is not your typical retirement community only offering Bingo and sing alongs. The drive-by parade featuring family members was a fantastic idea! Thank you for keeping the residents engaged and active during such a difficult time.
July 2020
My dear, close friends moved there in May and I'm so impressed with the loveliness, the cleanliness, the attention to care and safety, and the kindness and professionalism of the staff.
July 2020
Krystal has been so helpful in helping my Uncle Mack make a smooth transition from his home to Independent Living. All of the staff there (Rebecca and Billy) have been so helpful and accommodating.
June 2020
This is a place that feels like home. I love being on the side of a little mountain at the beginning of the Blue Ridge. The rooms are nice sized, lots of light. I love my third floor apartment, which is literally in the treetops. The staff here is caring and go the extra mile. The maintenance and housekeeping staffs are very warm and friendly. They are accommodating. I like that this community is small and everyone is friendly. It’s just great to live here!!!
March 2020
The staff was very helpful when we moved our mothers to Laurelwoods. The nurse and dietician met us when we checked in Saturday afternoon. They fixed a late lunch and asked questions to help with the transition. The director stopped by and has helped get everything arranged and connected to help make everyone comfortable. We are very happy with the positive environment.
February 2020
Beautiful buildings in a great town. The staff are exceptional and really care about their residents. I have seen first hand the loving care that is provided.

Beautiful facility with wonderful staff. There’s not one negative thing that I could say.
December 2019
Moved my mom in recently and was extremely impressed by the care and compassion shown by the staff. My mom loves her apartment. It's cozy, safe and extremely well maintained. Highly recommend.
December 2019
I couldn't be happier (Mom too) with the facility, the food, and more importantly the people. This could have been an incredible nightmare of a transition from Mom living at home with us to moving into an assisted living facility. With Laurelwoods staff - it really has made this into something completely manageable given the difficulty of the situation. I couldn't recommend them more.
November 2019
Beautiful building with friendly staff. You walk in feeling welcomed. Smiling faces every where you turn. Clean with a modern feel. Food is amazing.

One of the best assisted living facilities in the area. The staff is truly dedicated to the residents and take care of their every need.
