Resident & family reviews
We had my mother-in-law in the assisted living at Indian Rock Village for over two years and she loved it. When her health began to run we reluctantly put her into the nursing home. The staff was just great and they always treated her like family. It is an older building, but do not let that fool you because the care is great. We would not have her anyplace else but here.
