Unique Features
This beautiful 8 acre property is famous for its lovely landscaping, nature walkways, shuffleboard courts, potting sheds and gazebos.
A comprehensive study of retirement facilities was conducted throughout several states. Based on personal visits to assisted living facilities, information was compiled and an extensive survey was prepared and mailed to more than five thousand Manatee County senior citizens to determine their needs and desires. The overwhelming response revealed a strong desire for elegant as well as comfortable surroundings in a residential setting. With these goals in mind, Summerfield became a reality.
In 1997 the "Reader's Preference Award" voted Summerfield the best retirement community. -

Community Reviews
Overall, Very Happy
reviewed on: 12/02/2013 by DaughterVery happy with them. We have had a little problems with the care. They are very nice but they are not always available. My mom did her own laundry because she didn't think that they were coming, and it would help if she was reminded of the schedule.

"I Never Want To Go To One Of 'Those' Places" - Mom
reviewed on: 04/09/2016 by MScaggsMy mother did NOT want to go to assisted living but after one visit to Summerfield she asked us, "When is the moving truck coming?" We were delighted to find a place where she immediately felt like she belonged, which was due to the friendliness of the staff. Although she has only been there about two weeks she has no complaints and seems to enjoy having her own space where she can be alone or step out of her door any time of the day to join others her own age in a variety of activities. Mom seems grateful to not have to worry about the daily chores of keeping up with a large house. (Though I don't expect her to ever admit that!) My husband and I have dropped in many times unannounced and have been pleasantly surprised in most cases. Our only concern is that the caregivers seem not as attentive when the head nurse is off duty. We arrived one time and found that she had not gotten her meds long after they were due. However, when the nurse is on duty things seem to run a bit better. Overall we are very pleased and hope that Summerfield will continue to meet our high expectations for helping my mother enjoy life.
Happy Client
reviewed on: 11/01/2021 by Mike LVery good deal for the price of this community for your loved one. I have actually already referred people. My loved one loves the community and the food and my mom even goes to join from time to time.
I feel like they get it!
reviewed on: 12/18/2013 by Doug WilliamsHaving come from a business environment where the competition is always nipping at your heals and chasing your clients, I whole-heartedly understand that balancing costs with profits and service is necessary for any business' survival today. And I know that, although I'd love for my mother to have "personal, 24 hr attention"; in today's world that is not possible unless $$ is of no concern...but it is (generally for most of us). My point being that a 1 to 1 client to caregiver ratio is financially impossible without big buck prices. Having said that I must say that the folks at Summerfield have never, ever, ever made me feel like $$ was the object of their existence. I am so grateful for the staff's positive outlook and generally optimistic attitude when it comes to dealing with elder care. I know that it cannot be easy to deal with the aging on a daily basis. They have my enduring respect, sincere gratitude and unquestionable support! Thank you Summerfield.
