What We Found

Since new management arrived in March, Whitney at the Heights transformed from a property with sporadic maintenance and security issues into a well-run community. Residents consistently praise Shawntee and her team for responsiveness, extensive grounds renovations, and genuine care for the living experience.

A recent staffing gap left the leased office unmanned for over an hour, and past incidents like pool closures and vehicle break-ins linger in memory. Still, the management's speed in hiring overnight security and addressing problems suggests these are recognized and being fixed.

  • responsive and friendly management
  • quick maintenance response
  • recent renovations and upgrades
  • improved security and grounds
  • community-building events
Watch-outs
  • front office understaffing and unavailability
  • past pool/gym neglect and closure
  • previous management instability
  • vehicle break-ins and security lag

Five-star reviews highlight warm staff, clean spaces, and meaningful engagement; one recent visitor praised the brightness and views. However, a significant thread of complaints centers on insufficient staffing, management turnover, and unmet care promises, particularly in assisted living. Multiple families report dangerously slow response times to calls, dietary restrictions unmet, and management unreachable during critical situations like hospital discharges.
