Community","reviewContent":"I would say it was the perfect fit for my mom.

My mother-in-law tells me weekly to daily about how happy she is that she hasn't even had the chance for sadness regarding the death of my father-in-law or having to sell her house. Then she realizes it's because she feels like she's made all the right decisions since. She can't say enough about the food. Absolutely loves it. The amount of space is just right and, compared to other places we looked at, she has a full kitchen! She participates in the gatherings, such as happy hour bingo and the voting that takes place regarding representatives of the two different buildings.","reviewerDisplayName":"Gina","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Recommended ","reviewContent":"We are new residents at The Woods.

They showed curiosity about her needs as opposed to just telling us what they have available. [name removed] and [name removed], the directors, are fantastic. I can't say enough good things about The Woods at Merrimack. It's independent vs. assisted living, which is exactly what my loved one needed. And I wasn't even aware that that existed until I happened to visit there. That saved us a lot of money not paying for services that she didn't need in assisted living. The apartment is beautiful and brand new. It has granite countertops and demonstrates lots of attention to detail. It feels like home, and she loves it there.","reviewerDisplayName":"anonymous","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Spectacular facility, friendly staff","reviewContent":"The facility is new and very clean. It's a beautiful, quiet spot. The atmosphere is very welcoming and positive. The staff is very helpful. I was concerned about dad's transition, but he's done really well. The staff is very friendly. The price is great, we got in on a good deal. It's affordable and much nicer than a lot of others. We had a long search and are very happy we chose this one. Dad is in independent living, so he doesn't have to use the dining. But he does go over to dining sometimes and likes it. They're open for long hours, which is great. They also serve a variety all day, so you can even go have breakfast food in the afternoon, etc. The director checks in with the residents and is hands on and very accommodating and open to residents wants. The residents recently requested that they start a cornhole team and the director worked with them to make it happen. They have a variety of activities and even a movie theatre. Housekeeping is once a week and they do a great job. I would definitely recommend the facility to others!","reviewerDisplayName":"Linda","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"}],"parentOrgReview":{"name":"Sunshine Retirement Living LLC","slug":"sunshine-retirement-living-llc-1329538","averageReviewScoreDisplay":8.7,"communityCount":36,"reviewCount":1215}},"communityName":"The Woods at Merrimack Retirement Community","leadgenCompleted":false}
