4.3 · 9 reviewsI moved to the Solaire Active Adult Community. It's clean and neat and has accessibility features for safety. The food is not included, but you do your own. The activities, that's the best part, the swimming pool, activity director, and there are a lot of things to do.
I am a resident of Solaire. The grounds are well-kept and clean. They have landscaping so it's very pretty. It has a nice fountain in front of the building. The parking area is all gated in, so you have security at the entrances. You have to have your key to get in or if it's a visitor coming in to see you, you have a private code that they would have to key in. Everything here is for independent living only and the staff, the management, and the maintenance people are all very pleasant. If you have any problems, they will come very quickly and fix whatever the problem may be. They're very…

I am a resident of Solaire. The grounds are well-kept and clean. They have landscaping so it's very pretty. It has a nice fountain in front of the building. The parking area is all gated in, so you have security at the entrances. You have to have your key to get in or if it's a visitor coming in to see you, you have a private code that they would have to key in. Everything here is for independent living only and the staff, the management, and the maintenance people are all very pleasant. If you have any problems, they will come very quickly and fix whatever the problem may be. They're very quick to respond to your need. We have an activities coordinator and every day they play different games. They also have swimming. The weather has been very, very nice this summer, and they have a nice picnic area or just being out in the yard in these little benches and things out for everyone. There's a cooking area if anyone wants to cook outdoors. They also have a library and an activities room where everybody gathers and just enjoys each other's company. You can sit in a comfortable living room area or gathering area and watch TV or you can be in the other activities area. They have a cafe here Monday through Friday, and the cafe has food. The cook in the cafe is very pleasant.
My relative has been living at this residence for over four years. Overall the place is fine, however most recently 1 of the 2 elevators in her building is out of order and has been for over 3 months. This is NOT good for the seniors, especially for those who cannot use the stairs. I have inquired about it and no information was given.

I met with [name removed] who was very helpful and informative. The tour was great. I have decided to apply for an apartment. The location and the amenities meet my needs.
This facility is a beautiful place, it’s quite, and they keep it up. Everybody that I have met here seems to be so nice and they’re great. The office is very attended to you. If you were to have any questions they are always there to give you answers or help you out. The staff is very communicative and knowledgeable. They also provide meals for the residents, but I prefer to cook myself in my unit. They also have a lot of activities going on. They also provide transportation for trips out of town and they take you to places like downtown, the mall, and to see the Christmas decorations this time of year. They always have flyers to keep you up to date on what’s going on. They also have a beauty salon on site.
I have a friend who lives over at So lair and I went over there a couple of times. I really like the location and I was pleased with the atmosphere and the way they keep it clean. It is an active community. The rooms are big, very spacious, and the window has more lighting. They have exercise room and a cafeteria. If anyone wants to order food, they can order from the cafeteria and they can take it to you. I was able to have a nice meal and the food is very good. They did have a room for me but the only thing is that the view from the room is a garbage can. The lady said when another room becomes available for me, I can be recommended.
Why did I choose So lair? Because, no. 1, it is very nice community! It is situated just a quarter of a mile from a shopping center, a grocery store, a pharmacy, etc. We have underground garage. We have a 24-hour security here. If you have a visitor, they must sign in and sign out. This place is pretty secure indeed. Inside, the front lobby looks like a hotel. With regards to accommodations, our apartments are fully carpeted. I have my own heating and cooling unit. My apartment comes with a refrigerator, a stove, a dishwasher and a garbage disposal. The main thing that I really love about this place is that I don't have to take my trash out. I just put it outside my front door and they come and pick it up. When winter comes, as far as maintenance is concerned, they make sure they shoveled the snow off the walkways. In terms of activities, we have movie nights, bingo, crocheting, and Bible studies. There is a cafe, a beauty salon, a fitness room, and an in-house rehab. The staff is very nice. We also have a nurse and a therapist. There is also a housekeeping service. They gave me everything I wanted. I love it here!
I was very pleased with Solaire. In fact, I'm going to be moving in there. It's a very nice place. The staff is very welcoming. They're warm and friendly. Even the residents were very friendly. It's a very, very clean place and very inviting when you walk in. It's really a good experience to be there.
