Pulled in, backed right back out. What a dump.

i went today 05/04/2022 to visit someone- I will let the resident remain anonymous, I was in shock at the deplorable conditions. I am tempted to call the health department. It's filthy. I almost have no words for just how bad it is. I just have never seen such conditions. DO NOT let any of your family or friends stay here. A shelter would be better than this . I want to give 0 stars- but it won't let me post without one. I give this ZERO STARS

Will not let a blind man eat A complete scam

This place is not a retirement home. There is people of all ages who are all kinds of messed up. The place smells of urine the minute you step in the place. I was told by a maintenance guy that he is spent all day spraying for bed bugs. I can't get out of this building fast enough. If you feel like your life is tough come visit this dump. I would give it less than 1 star but Google wouldnt let me.

Hell on earth

The rooms and apartments at Bay Gardens are almost like brand new, and they are really well kept. I am not seeing any activities, and I think they need to have activities.

We decided to visit Bay Gardens Retirement Village assisted living facility as it is convenient for my friend's mother's family and friends. The outer grounds were also very pretty with a nice courtyard and seating areas. The staff was able to take care of a variety of people, from those with memory issues to those less ambulatory. The building was very well maintained and appeared very pleasant throughout. The living spaces were spacious and well-designed. All of the areas were pleasant to be in. There were plenty of professional, yet friendly staff to take care of all of their needs. The dining rooms were restaurant style, cozy, warm and still fresh. There was a variety of types of food available. Choices ranged from a complete meal to snacks or lighter fare, for those who wanted it. Every dietary concern seemed to be well addressed. The activities list was impressive. From board and other games to bingo, there are many interesting things to do for the residents. Planned outside excursions include many healthy physical activities so that the seniors can enjoy everything that the region has to offer. They also have planned exercise classes and encourage physical activity. All of the seniors appeared to be very well taken care of by nice and able staff.
