Our Retirement Community Testimonials

“Wow!  What a beautiful and friendly place to live.  Every day is filled with games to play, a full fitness center and exercise program to help keep us healthy, a heated swimming pool, and a movie theater that shows any move we like.  After living in another community, I really appreciate the linen service along with the housekeeping and the luxury of three meals served per day.  All of the housekeepers and wait staff are so efficient.  We have excellent bus service and our driver always gets everyone to their appointments on time, walks us into the office and picks us up without too long of a wait.  Our Wonderful Les even takes us on some GREAT outings of our choice once a week.  One of the nicest features is that the management staff lives here and are on call 24 hours a day if anyone should have a problem.  We live like a big family and they get to know each of us.  I guess you can tell how much I love living here at Salishan.

 “It is a carefree lifestyle in first-class luxurious surroundings.  The staff is wonderful and it has been easy to make new friends that enjoy life as much as we do.”

"We love our new building and feel we have the best residents anywhere.  One of the joys of working for the Hawthorn Retirement family for the past few years is that we get to share our lives with the residents and get to know each one as a person.  The folks at Salishan are so much fun and we love having the opportunity to swim with them, play Wii Bowling or Beanbag Baseball.  This is so much more than a job – it is our mission to make our residents lives as full and enriched as possible.  It’s great that this “family” is growing so rapidly…the more the merrier.

“I saw the beautiful building, ate their delicious food and met the other residents and I knew this was where I wanted to live the rest of my life…there’s LIFE here.”

“We were living in another retirement community and we were drawn here because of the beautiful two bedroom apartment with a huge balcony.  Once they opened, the activities and lifestyle are everything we could want and everyone is very friendly.  There is always something to do.”
