Very enjoyable experience. The Community Rep was very knowledgeable and showed us lovely apartments and the layout of the facility. Amenities, services, cost and activities were thoroughly explained. I am looking forward to making this my new home/

Lake Park is a beautiful apartment building that looks like a hotel at first glance. Apartments are spacious.. More importantly the people are really nice. They have done an excellent job creating a community atmosphere … Many seniors knew my mothers name before she even moved in. And then there is Miss Sabrina Johnson on the sales team.. she knew I really wanted my mother there and worked with my family to find a way. This lady is the most professional and kindhearted. She really listened to me and my mom - and followed up in a way that made us feel like we were the priority. My initial experience cannot have been better.
