The 7 Best Independent Living in Brinklow, Maryland

"I recently visited Cadence at Olney, and I was really impressed with the community. The staff was great in explaining all that the community has to offer, and it really seemed like care about their residents. It's relatively new (I think only a few years old) so everything felt fresh and modern. My brothers and I got a good feeling here, and this community will make our "short list" for sure." - Sheryl… Read more

"SUPERB! My mom & dad moved into Brightview West End in August, 2022. And from the very beginning, I have nothing but good things to say about this amazing senior community. First, from the Community Sales Director to the Executive Director to the Hospitality Services Director to the Concierge, everyone is attentive and caring. Second, the residents are so friendly, warm and welcoming! My parents quickly felt right at home in this completely new environment. The maintenance of this community is commendable--very clean and beautifully-appointed. We certainly made the right decision in choosing this outstanding senior community." - Elaine Genevieve… Read more

"They cannot keep senior managers for more than a year. No explanation was given as to why they are unable to keep staff. It’s ridiculous that every three months I go up to visit and there are new people to meet in the front office. This a very big concern to me. I wish someone would give the residents an explanation. The variety of food has a lot to be desired. Need to cut out the salt." - Holly… Read more

"I moved to Brooke Grove almost a year ago, and my experiences so far have been everything I'd hoped for, and more. This is a very loving, tightly knit community with many great amenities. These include excellent food served in the Clubhouse, friendly dining serving staff, responsive indoor and outdoor maintenance teams, competent assisted living and skilled nursing facilities and staff. The upper level management team regularly meets with the independent living residents to hear our concerns and to keep us informed of campus issues. I don't for a minute regret my decision to move here, and I'm looking forward to being here for many more years. This place is BEAUTIFUL!" - Judy… Read more
