The Commons at Elk Grove

Debbie

My mother will be moving into The Commons at Elk Grove. My husband and I went together, and I've been there a couple of times since then. It was great. The independent living and assisted living levels are kind of combined, so we visited everything but memory care. What we liked most was the staff was very warm and friendly, they answered all our questions, and they showed us everything. We just felt like the priorities of The Commons really matched what we were wanting for my mom. They're very interested in helping the seniors transition and having them be really engaged in what's going on, and they had lots of activities available to them. We really liked the whole energy of the place. It was very, very clean and fresh with a nice decor, light, very warm, and inviting. They had all kinds of services, like a salon, a theater room, lots of fun activities, a really nice central courtyard/garden area, and a patio with a barbecue. They encourage families to come visit and have a barbecue out in the courtyard. They had lots of options available to the families. It was really charming and inviting. We didn't eat anything, but everything looked nice. My husband was really impressed with the kitchen. He said it really was a state-of-the-art kitchen; it was clean and well coordinated. We had cookies from there, and they were good.

Business Response

We really liked The Commons at Elk Grove and it's what my mother is most interested in. We were very impressed with the people and the place. The room was fine, and the person during the tour was wonderful. We went to the dining room and we saw people playing Bridge, we talked to some of the residents, we saw the activities they have to offer, the movie room, the gym, the outside, and the popcorn. There was a lot going on, and we were very satisfied. The food menu was good.

My husband moved into the Commons at Elk Grove, and I can't say enough good things about it. It's wonderful. The people are very kind, very helpful, and the food is excellent. It's run beautifully with plenty of activities. They have bus trips out in the area, picnics, and a barbecue the day before Father's Day, where family can come. The manager is very kind, and he took us to a medical appointment yesterday. They have a bistro where they can go at any time during the day for popcorn, fruit, and water. They have an exercise room, a computer room, library, theater, and activity planned every day. I think they do a great job.

I had a very nice lunch at The Commons at Elk Grove. It was very homey, but it seemed more assisted living than senior living. They had activities. It was very clean and very nice.

The Commons at Elk Grove was very nice, but it was very small, and it felt a bit tight. The grounds were very small. My aunt wants a bigger, dedicated kitchen, but unfortunately, they don't have those. They just have kitchenettes. Other than that, it was very nice. The staff was great. We saw people participating in ongoing activities when we were walking through. We also saw areas where people were congregating and playing board games.
