My dad lived at Willow Creek for three years. He loved living in this wonderful senior retirement place. He enjoyed doing the special activities they have. The management is very accommodating to the needs of the residents. When you walk into Willow Creek it is like walking into a beautiful hotel. I was very grateful my dad had this experience there.
