I toured Lake Park Senior Living. The tour was very nice. Unfortunately, it's a little out of our price range. It was very clean; it was spotless. The people were very friendly. Antoinette was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. We sat down, and she took time with me. She answered all my questions, and she gave me a detailed packet. She even broke down what goes into their facility between assisted care, independent care, and active care. She talked about the various activities that they have there. It was a very positive place except for the pricing. I was told there was an $8,000 community fee, just to move in, and it's not refundable. I guess that's administrative fees and all of that. There is a room where there are tons of televisions, so people can come and watch. Apparently, most gatherings are in this room. They have a piano in the middle, and I think a jazz trio is coming in. It just looked nice that people could get out of their rooms. Also, it is downtown, so you can get anywhere. It's interesting because the building on the outside and inside is mostly white, which surprised me a little. However, the floors and walls were clean. All of it was very well maintained.

Lake Park in Oakland has a vibrant independent living component. I like the physical layout quite a lot. The rooms were larger than some places I've visited. It's an older facility, but it has been renovated a lot. It's a large building, too. The staff members are very positive and very helpful. I tried the food, but it was not the highlight of the community. They have a limited menu, and they aren't making as big a deal out of it as some places do. There were a lot of large and small rooms that you could use for different things, whether you were doing crossword puzzles, you were sitting in their library, you were having your friends over, or you were watching films. There were lots of spaces and different options, and you could reserve those for what you wanted to do.

I toured Lake Park Senior Living. It was a beautiful place. It's on the lake. I saw from the upper level a lady walking on a large walking trail on one of the rooftops, and she was alone. I asked the lady who was showing me around. I said she was alone. What happens if she falls or something? The assistant reminded me that they have a little something with them at all times so that they would know immediately and send help, so I like that. I like everything about it. It is in Oakland, California, and Oakland has a reputation for crime, but that community was only less than three miles from where my son lived, so that made it nice. She said they offered trips to town once a week. They had several other things they offered. I did have lunch at Lake Park, and that was good. The lady who showed me around was very nice and informative. What I saw was a one-bedroom and a living room.

My experience at Lake Park Senior Living was great. Everything was great. However, I was looking for a facility that was based on my grandmother's income. It's a beautiful facility. I wish we could afford it, but we can't. The lady that gave me the tour was wonderful. She showed me all around. She was very informative. I appreciate it. I saw the menu, and it's a wonderful menu. They have a library, a painting room, and an exercise room. It was a wonderful place.
