    I have had a pretty great experience with Heatherwood. From my own personal experience of having my grandfather move in to working there for many years as a med tech and concierge, I can confidently say that it is an amazing place. The staff are very friendly helpful and caring and the residents are wonderful. The community is beautiful with a great view outside. The apartments are large and the food is delicious. There are also plenty of activities to keep everyone engaged.
