“I had an absolute wonderful experience in the Custer Dining Room at Bridgewater Retirement Community. I spent the evening with my family. The waitress we had was outstanding as she is my Niece. If you are looking for a quiet dine in spot to enjoy your evening, I recommend you coming to Bridgewater Retirement Community Custer Room or The Junction. One of the best places in the Town of Bridgewate…”

“The best kept dining secret around is The Junction at BRC; great food, great prices, and the cleanest dining areas I have seen. Pictured is their steak and cheese combo. Priced at $8.43 total 😳”

★Sue Utterback · 2022-10-19 · via Google

“Small pets are allowed but not disabled children should you have one living with you. My husband and I were considering independent care options at Bridgewater Retirement Community but it was made pretty clear that our son would not be welcome there. Beautiful place for beautiful people.”
