Heritage Oaks is a senior living community with mixed reviews. Many residents and their families appreciate the facility's affordability, friendly staff, and variety of activities. The community offers three meals a day, housekeeping, and transportation services, which are generally well-received. The location is convenient, being close to shopping areas and medical facilities, and the grounds are described as clean and well-maintained. However, some reviews highlight concerns about the quality of food and dining services, citing issues with meal temperature and service speed. Staffing shortages have been mentioned as a contributing factor to these problems. Additionally, there are reports of bed bugs and inadequate attention to residents' needs, particularly for those requiring more assistance than independent living provides. The facility is praised for its spacious apartments and the sense of community among residents, with many noting the welcoming atmosphere and social opportunities. Staff members like Connie Pryor receive specific commendations for their helpfulness and professionalism. Overall, Heritage Oaks is seen as a good value for independent seniors, but it may not be suitable for those needing more comprehensive care.

This is not independent living. My mother pays $3000.00 a month, which they say $1,800.00 goes to meals. Some people pay $900.00. Am I paying $900.00 for their food. No repairs get done. Work order done. One year later no repair.

Couldn't ask for a better place for my dad. The staff is outstanding, and it's close location to St. Joseph's Hospital which was a big deciding factor for me. It is the perfect environment for restful recuperation in a family-like atmosphere. Highly recommended!
