The Oaks Gracious Retirement Living — Local services in Georgetown

We are in our second year enjoying The Oaks. Managers Mike and Tamye provide a caring family atmosphere which we fully appreciate. Assistant Managers, Skip and Barbara, are fairly new and continue to grow into their role. He is an accomplished grille master and she, a talented baker.

Our daily servers and housekeepers (Katrina, April, Sylvia and Jeremiah) are quite good, attentive, generous with their time, friendly and efficient. Our weekend and evening servers are eager kids putting in the effort to learn how to be quality servers and employees.

Fred is a man capable of handling many tasks including the transportation needs. Rigo is a master at solving maintenance concerns. Both are fine men dedicated to helping and caring for us.

Amy is our new Activities Coordinator. She has hit the ground running, planning an array of activities for us to enjoy along with fancy celebratory events. Her first big challenge is orchestrating the upcoming Summer Carnival for residents and guests.

And last, but certainly not least is creative and talented Executive Chef Rosaline and Sous Chef, Aaron. Behind the scenes kitchen staff under Rosaline’s and Aaron’s direction provide attractive, quality meals and snacks every day.

Last year, we found ourselves at that time in our lives when keeping and maintaining a home was too much of a chore. Living at The Oaks has freed us to relax and enjoy our retirement years in comfort and a safe environment. The many amenities and activities provide a daily list of fun: cards, puzzles, Wii bowling, billiards, chair volley ball, garden plots, dominoes, bingo, computer room, crafts, walking trail, beauty salon, weekly musical performances, dances, sing alongs, wine group, yoga, sewing nook, daily movies in the...

I would like to offer my input concerning The Oaks as my experience and observations of the facility differ from previously posted reviews. In the later part of August 2019, I moved my 86 year old mom into this facility. Unfortunately she was only able to stay just a few weeks before having to move into a nursing home due to health issues. While there I visited her nearly daily and saw how terrific the staff and management are. The new managers started about the time I moved my mom in and they did everything to make her welcome as did the staff and residents. I was able to eat with my mom and the food was quite good. The portions aren't as large as most retail restrauants but considering the folks they're feeding, large portions are not necessary. I'm 68 and don't eat the portions like I did when I was younger. The meals were more than adequate for an elderly person and it should be noted, they offer as much food as the resident requests. If a resident wants 3 appetizers and 2 desserts with their meal, they will serve them happily. During my visits, I watched the residents and visited with them and only a select few had issues with the facility. The activity director was super and made every effort to get folks involved. The amenities offered there are terrific for elderly folks such that they can fulfill almost all they're needs. The average age is 83, and one resident was an active 100 year old. I highly recommend this place and assuming it fits one's budget, it's a good...

TOP NOTCH RETIREMENT COMMUNITY.

My experience at The Oaks Gracious Retirement Living has been nothing short of phenomenal. As someone who recently had the pleasure of cleaning the windows for their residents, I can honestly say I've never encountered a community quite like this. Every single resident I spoke with was beaming with happiness and absolutely raved about their home here.

What truly sets The Oaks apart is the incredible, palpable care they provide. It's not just about meeting needs; it's about going the extra mile. I witnessed firsthand how the team goes above and beyond to make residents comfortable, even extending to thoughtful gestures like ensuring windows are sparkling clean for their elderly and senior members – a small detail that speaks volumes about their dedication.

The entire team is outstanding, but I must give a special shout-out to Scott, Oksana, Janet, and Clifford. They are among the best professionals I have ever worked with, demonstrating genuine compassion, efficiency, and a true commitment to the well-being of the residents.

The level of extra care, the vibrant atmosphere, and the sheer joy radiating from the residents are testaments to the exceptional environment The Oaks has cultivated. I am truly looking forward to a long and beneficial relationship with this...
