I have attended quite a few family events at the Cambridge and have been very impressed with all of them! I have recommended this community to multiple people due to the amount of time , energy and love that is put into the events that Sarah, the lifestyle director plans. It is clear that the community cares for their residents in the best way!

We have lived here for over 2 years now and we made the right choice! What's not advertised is the help, support, and cooperation of the residents which is what makes the Cambridge so special. Go to Facebook Cambridge at Brier Creek and look at the photos ... there is an activity for anyone and everyone.

I have attended several theme events at the Cambridge with a friend who lives there and had such a wonderful time. The Derby party was so much fun, and I loved the reggae band, too. Casino night was an absolute blast. The staff are super friendly, the snacks are great, and the residents are always welcoming and ready to have fun. I would love to live there someday!
