Lakeview Retirement Community is highly praised by both staff and residents for its welcoming and family-like atmosphere. The facility, which opened last year, is described as luxurious and resort-like, offering a range of amenities including a full theater, activity rooms, a gym, and a 150-seat movie theater.

The community is noted for its varied activities that cater to diverse interests, encouraging resident participation and fostering a sense of belonging. The staff at Lakeview are frequently commended for their friendliness, helpfulness, and dedication to making residents feel valued and known. Meals are provided, with options for room service or dining in the cafeteria, and the presence of a chef is highlighted as a positive feature. While Lakeview is strictly an independent living facility, residents have the option to hire a nurse if needed, and safety measures like emergency bracelets are in place. Despite its many advantages, some reviews mention the high cost of living at Lakeview as a potential drawback.
