Testimonials From
Our Residents

“I am 63, husband is 70. We moved to Pinnacle 7 months ago. We love it here. A perfect combination of privacy (2 bdrm apartment) and community. Building is new, well maintained. Activities range from aqua-size in our indoor heated pool next to the sauna and hot tub, to Jeopardy, trips, potlucks, book clubs, movies in luxurious movie theater, walks, gardening club and gentle exercise classes. We have a shared breakfast buffet (no other meals) but we also have a monthly birthday party and happy hour with drinks and snacks. Garages for those who choose to pay extra. Outside parking. Grandkids and guests come to swim and play. What’s not to like?”

“I’ve been at Pinnacle for almost two years and I love it here. My apartment is perfect for me, there are many opportunities available for participation and the pool area is great for relaxation. I’ve made many new friends and connected with some former friends. And on top of all that, the staff is outstanding. The building is well maintained inside and out, and staff are always coming up with new and fun ideas to engage us. I’m so glad I made the move.”

“We have been very happy with our move to the Pinnacle in 2021. This truly is a community that cares about each other. Getting together for breakfast is a great way to start the day. The monthly calendar is full of fun things to do. Our wonderful staff is always open for suggestions to make life here even better.”

“This is a wonderful environment for active seniors. So much thought has been given to ensuring residents' convenience and safety, plus providing a variety of activities. I love having my own garden and being able to watch movies in a real theater whenever I like.”
