I was appreciative of my in-person introduction to the apartments, programs and benefits of Merrill Gardens at Rockridge. Manager Christian Saysourivong was respectful, informative, and never patronizing in answering questions and providing information. My daughter and I left the facility feeling that this is a place I should seriously consider when the time comes to make a move to senior housing.

Merrill Gardens is truly a magical place. I love how the residents have a lot of say in their activities, so much so that they converted one of the outdoor garden areas into a place where residents can work on their own projects. Christian is incredibly thoughtful and helpful, and the price point here is much more affordable than other locations. Ultimately, it wasn't quite the right fit for my mom, but it is definitely worth checking out.

We were very impressed with the warmth and caring of Kristine Nachand and her entire staff. The facilities are beautiful, the food looks delectable (including the chocolate chocolate chips we got to take home), and it’s clear a lot of thought has gone into creating an environment where seniors can thrive physically, intellectually, and emotionally.
