Independent Living Community in Yorktown, Virginia

Colonial Harbor was clean. The 1-bedroom apartment was fine and clean. The staff who showed us around was very helpful. The dining area was clean, and the food was great. They had an activities calendar, a fitness room, a rehab, and a library.

I like Colonial Harbor, but it's over in York County. The lady I know has a very nice room, and the dining area looked good, but it's too far from me. They have a lot of activities, and the residents were very nice. It was decorated nicely and kept clean.

Colonial Harbor was very nice. The person who showed us around was very nice too. My father and I were very impressed. It was clean. The people were interacting with one another. We really liked the small apartments. We felt very positive about the place. They always clean the rooms, and they're all independent living. They said they have different kinds of activities that go on regularly, like movies and bingo. I liked the fact that they're trying to keep the people involved. They talked about somebody who was missing at lunch, and they went to check on her; I really liked that part. The staff was very good. He answered all of our questions, and he was very helpful. I liked this place. You can see most of the rooms from downstairs so that they can keep tabs on people, which is what my parents really need at this point.

Everything was good at Colonial Harbor including the outside of the building. When I walked to the door, I was greeted. The dining room was over toward to the right and I could see people eating. We've come right in the middle of their meal, but that didn't seem to bother anyone. Mark, the salesman, was awesome. He even called me to wish me Happy Easter. I liked him and the facility a lot. They had three meals a day prepared by a chef. I liked the rooms. The backrooms looked over the woods, and I'm a nature freak. The front rooms looked out over the Fort Eustis Boulevard, which was not heavily trafficked.

We liked Colonial Harbor so much, we didn't go anywhere else. It is $2,400 a month, which, I think, is pretty affordable. The staff member we met was quite nice. The dining area was very nice and a restaurant-style setting with orders sent right to the kitchen. It seemed like the security was very good. It was in a nice area, very clean, and updated. The rooms were nice. Everything about it was good. They had a chapel and play cards and different games.
