I moved my mom out of an apartment and into Cobblestone in October when completely independent living became a bit overwhelming for her. She has flourished since then. They have the most caring staff and some have been there 20 years so you know this is their passion. Joyce leads the PSW's by example. She is respectful and professional, compassionate and yet firm. Mom has regained all of the weight that she lost because of a lack of desire to cook and the loneliness of eating alone. The kitchen does a very good job at preparing healthy meals that the residents enjoy. Jean, who does so many of the activities with the residents is creative and hardworking, recently adding a blind silent auction to the regular Bingo, exercise classes and walks to Timmy's. The recent opening of the new senior centre around the corner will compliment the activities offered on site. Mom couldn't be happier and I have great peace of mind. If you are thinking of making this transition, sit in the lobby for a while before or after a tour to get a real feel for it. read more

Cobblestone Gardens Retirement Residence - Happy at Cobblestone - Retirement Homes Near Me - Thorold, Ontario

My mother moved to Cobblestone last year from her apartment. She didn,t want to move into a retirement living home as her thoughts of the old nursing homes were in her mind. We took a tour and planted the thought of mom moving in. we told mom it is a place to go live not to go to die. There was a room available but mom felt she wasn,t ready. A couple months go by and mom was told by the doctor that she can,t live on her own, fortunately a room came available at Cobblestone. Mom has thrived there. She has started eating again (the food is delicious) she has made many friends and she loves the staff, they are fun and so caring., They give mom such great care. Mom loves the activies and we have to work our visits around them, lol They have people come into sing and play music which mom loves.I would highly recommend Cobblestone for independent living. read more

I've been looking around for a retirement home for my elderly mother recently. I took a tour at Cobblestone Gardens and was impressed. The place is very nice, clean and the staff seem knowledgeable, compassionate and capable. The rooms weren't the biggest but they were more than adequate. Lots of activities to keep the residents minds and bodies active, which was very good to see. This place will be at the top of the list for consideration when it come time for my mom to move. Thanks for taking the time to show me around, much appreciated! read more
