Community Reviews
A great caring place
reviewed on: 07/27/2020 by AnonymousMy mother has been a resident for over 5 years now. I live abroad and they make it easy for me to make sure my mom is taken care of. They have honestly gone above and beyond during this Covid crisis. The owner Stephen helped me advocate and come up with solutions to help her get discharged from the rehabilitation centre after recovering from Covid. It was nearly impossible to get someone in to talk to them with all the regulations. The staff at The Homestead are all lovely..Celeste the case manager is very caring and very honest. It’s clean, bright, friendly and they will try to help in any way.

This is a lovely residence. The staff...
reviewed on: 09/21/2013 by LindaThis is a lovely residence. The staff are very caring and engaged with the residents. Many activities and flexible approach to supporting residents with their interests. They take those interested on field trips. My dad recently went to a Mets' game and had a great time. They really seem to go the extra mile. Also, they treat the residents with respect, not in patronizing manner.
Entirely satisfied
reviewed on: 05/27/2015 by AnonymousThings have gone very well at The Homestead. We've only been here a few weeks at this point, but so far I would give them high marks across the board. We are entirely satisfied, and would recommend it to others looking into senior living in the area.
The New Homestead... Not fancy but great staff.
reviewed on: 10/31/2015 by JillI am very impressed with the staff. They are caring and nurturing. I feel that my dad is very safe. The trips that they offer are really good. They go to baseball games and dinner theater.
