I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Lakeside at Amelia Island, a wonderful independent-living home for seniors. I was impressed by the community and its staff, who are friendly and approachable. My parents have been living there for two months now and have nothing but good things to say about their experience – from the delicious meals to the life enrichment activities, exercise classes and walking trails. They also feel confident in knowing that there are progressive treatment options available should my mother need assisted living in the future. All in all, I would highly recommend The Lakeside as a great place to live.
