My mother-in-law was at American House of Burlington Creek from May until her passing in September of this year and I cannot say enough good things about it. The staff is wonderful. She got excellent care and the communication was terrific. Whenever we were there, and we were there a lot. I would not hesitate to put any family member at American House.

It has been such a pleasure working with Norah, the director of marketing. I’ve been reviewing different buildings for my loved one and she has been such an amazing resource. The building is absolutely beautiful, has so many amenities and is the perfect fit!

I recently toured this community (twice) and both times was very impressed. Nora was wonderful to work with, so caring and out-going and just enjoyed showing me what the community had to offer. The dog park, large outdoor covered patio, and generously sized apartments were definitely great attributes too. I am rating it 4.5 stars, but Nora gets a full 5!
