Our families experience is great definitely friendly staff very nice community!
The experience was very good. Sue reached out, inviting us to tour and have lunch. But most of all my brother in seems very happy there and is doing more then he's done years. He's gone from laying in the bed most of his day to Socializing, going down to the dining room daily, making friends. He even travels out and about. We've really seen a change in him. So to sum it up I'm so glad we found Diamond Ridge for him!

Would not recommend
Little or no security, bus keeps breaking down, ONE maintenance man for the entire bldg, housekeeping inconsistent, no outside activities, garbage sometimes piles up in laundry room, this place is nothing like their website or what was promised during initial tour. Many residents stay in their apts, only coming out for their meals, many have serious mental and physical challenges requiring MUCH more help than Independent Living would provide, stolen items from mail room, little socialization. I've given it a year's trial, but now I'm leaving for another senior facility that will "fit" my needs and my personality.

Slowly becoming a Nursing home
I been here for over a year now & I used to love it here but I am not happy here anymore. I stay in my apt & keep to myself. The only thing I like is my apt & my patio. They aides here to take care of those who can’t take care of themselves. One aide has to hand feed an elderly man his pills in the dining room & I see more & more people who need to be in a nursing home, they are not independent at all. They don’t turn away people because they want the money. The food is atrocious & is not edible most of the time. This is not what we’re paying for & if we need them to deliver meals we get charged for it, I think they charge $[removed]. For what we’re already paying for. Allot of times it’s way too salty & overcooked. The veg are like mush. I’m paying almost $[removed] a month. I’d love to move again but I’m not up to packing up again at my age. It is definitely not an independent community anymore. If anyone is looking to live here, please turn around & look somewhere else.

A nice community with friendly staff
All fives. I'm very happy you found this place for me. What I like the most about Diamond Ridge is the friendly people, good food and the price. Yes I would recommend this community to other families. There are support services here that make living here comparable to assisted living but at a fraction of the price

A great, quiet community to live in
It's very peaceful here. I'm from the country and this is closer to country life but with the conveniences of the city life. Meaning you don't have to travel fast to go to a store. Everyone knows everyone and watches out for one another.
My apartment is very roomy for me and my pets or even a couple, can manage. I have a studio with a patio to take my dog out as many times as he wants or needs.

Not what we hoped for
My aunt is not happy there and is moving out.
Staff is very shorthanded. Almost everyone complains about the facility. We have found the maintenance staff to be very helpful.
I know they are trying to correct some of these things.

Great Place
My Mom's experience there has been wonderful. Three meals a day along with housekeeping once a week is great. There are a lot of activities to do. Great staff and nice residents. They are doing renovations to make a nice place even nicer. My Mom really loves it there.

Comfortable and affordable
My one bedroom apartment is very comfortable and it is cleaned on a weekly schedule.
I pay no utilities and have air conditioning and comfortable heating.
The dining is down home cooking and tasty.
I’m very, presently, happy living at this location.

Review for Diamond Ridge
If my friend was in a wheelchair or used a walker I'd say they would fit right in. The facilities are kept nicely and it feels like a comfortable place. The meals are good quality but it is removed from any community center so unless you can walk(which my brother does) you have to take their jitney bus to go shopping or to pre-scheduled events. It's nice but not for every lifestyle

Affordable Independent Living
Although short staffed, they work hard to keep the residents happy. It is an independent living facility that is affordable, yet nice. My mother seems to like the facility, staff, and residents - although she is quiet and will sometimes miss out on things she wants. The recent renovations were nice, however, the staffing shortage is unfortunate (and certainly not limited to this facility). Hopefully their continued efforts to improve will continue to refine the experience.

Our Experience
My loved one is currently a resident at Holiday Diamond Ridge and overall it has been a good experience so far. They are currently redoing the common areas, so those should be nicely updated. If the food improves, which they are working on, then Holiday Diamond Ridge would be great!

Not recommended
My loved one was previously a resident at Holiday Diamond Ridge and the experience was okay. However, in my opinion, it is not worth the cost. The value for cost is not good. I believed that it was initially, but I do now. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this facility to others.

Still recommend but disappointed in the new management team
It was nice in the beginning when [name removed] was there now that she is gone the staff has gone down hell they are not friendly anymore. The GM that they have now is not on site as much as they need to be and they are not friendly to any of the staff or the residents who live there.
My mother stated the other day that they are running out of food, not being hot, the same stuff almost every day, and not much to choose from since the beginning of December.

Nice Place...Could Be Better
My loved one is a resident at Holiday Diamond Ridge. The staff is friendly. The grounds are beautiful. The housekeeping has been excellent, they even make the beds once a week. However, the food needs to be improved and there should be a basic choice always available (ie: hamburger/hotdog). I think more activities need to be offered for the residents. Also, repairs need to be done in a more timely manner.

Been here a month
We enjoyed our visit to tour Diamond Ridge. [name removed], the sales manager, was very welcoming and worked hard to make us feel at ease. We were pleased with the grounds which are well-kept and the units we saw were a decent size compared to other locations we had visited. Ultimately, we did move our loved one into Diamond Ridge based on location and budget. We have been there about a month. We would recommend those with loved ones that are still mobile and very independent or that can hire a private aide to assist. The two things that might need consideration, if they are important to you, are the fact that there is no overnight personnel and the food service is not great. Overall, we are pleased with the unit and the move, the assistant manager, [name removed] has been kind and the sales manager, [name removed], continues to be a positive highlight to the place.
