What We Found

Most buyers praise Highland Homes' knowledgeable staff, especially sales representative Andrew and construction managers who walk through options and answer questions. A small minority report frustration with closing delays, unresponsive lending, and weak warranty support after purchase.

Prices range from the $470s on 55ft lots to $800s on 80ft lots, with named plans like the Redford ($545k) and Verona ($866k). The community offers fitness facilities, a pool, trails, and game room.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Greatwood divides reviewers sharply. Those praising it highlight warm staff, quality meals prepared by chef Frank, clean grounds, and planned activities. Others report alarming gaps: slow caregiver response times, one-carer-to-18-residents ratios, falls left unattended for hours, and infrastructure failures like non-working call buttons. Recent leadership changes and high staff turnover have sparked concern among long-term families. The business claims multiple care levels and on-site services, but reviews suggest execution varies widely depending on when and which department you encounter.

The Reserve at First Colony Assisted Living and Memory Care

4.7(74)✓ Google-verified

Families consistently praise the warmth and genuine care of staff, from front-desk greeters to activities directors and caregivers. Residents feel safe, engaged, and at home. The building itself is striking, recently renovated, spotlessly maintained. Food earns repeated mention for quality and variety. Transitions between assisted living and memory care (Vintage Gardens) are handled with dignity. One isolated complaint lacks detail. The community hosts themed family nights, fitness programs, and wellness activities that keep residents involved. Staff members are named across reviews, many praised individually. For those moving a parent into senior care, the red-carpet feel here means less anxiety about whether the decision was right.
