“My mother has been at the Village at Morrison’s Cove since April and she has had the best care. The therapy department has been wonderful and really good at motivating my mother. All of the staff of have been fantastic and my mom feels like she is genuinely cared for there. I’m very grateful for the care she receives there daily!”

★★★★★Dorothy B. Segura · 2025-03-27 · via Google

“This is a well-maintained, compassionate nursing home. It’s connected to an apartment complex for independent living, along with nearby cottages and houses that help seniors stay close to support when needed. A big plus is their home care services, which extend across multiple counties.”

★Terriann Shoemaker · 2025-06-26 · via Google

“I would not send my dog to this place! If it weren’t for Gretchen, who was an angel, I have nothing good to say about this home. You never see the doctor, and they lie to you straight to your face!”
