We followed the trails that led us through a habitat of California native plants. There were many places off trail to sit. However, food is not allowed inside. We enjoyed the Redwood Grove and relaxed there for a bit. The staff is friendly and informative and this is definitely a great place for kids. It appears they have a variety of workshops. No fee to enter or to park. We continued our walk around the park outside and noticed the east side of Huntington Park Central. That will be our next spot to explore.

From the most genuine greetings by both staff and residents to the impeccable care and attention to detail throughout - this would be the perfect home for anyone looking for a warm, vibrant, and active lifestyle. Management is what stood out to me and with such compassion and empathy, this is the crew my loved one would be blessed to be surrounded by every day.

I visited several memory care facilities in Orange County, and most had shared rooms and staff that didn't interact with the residents. Courtney is the Inspire Connection Program Director, and she has activities and outings that keep the residents in the Garden House busy. Nathan is the director, and his open-door policy for residents and staff makes visiting with my husband a good experience. Thank you, Merrill Gardens, for being there.

Alzheimer's Family Center is the best thing that I could have ever done for my wife who was a…read morepostal employee of 27 years and retired because the new things were too much for her. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's not much longer after that. She has been a member of the Alzheimer's Family Center of Huntington Beach since 2023 and I continually ask her "Do you like the Family Center?" and she always responds "Yes!". The Family Center has a staff that is caring and personable beyond reproach. They show genuine care for our loved ones. Her Neurologist has been pleasantly surprised on the last several visits because she has not detected the decline in her that was expected. I attribute much of that to loving care, engagement and social interaction that the Family Center provides for my loved one.

Woo, rockin' the Senior Center! A coworker of mine took up line dancing a few years ago and she…read morelooked like she was having so much fun I wanted to try it out. She mentioned that she got her start taking a Lakewood Parks & Rec class at this place so I signed up. $40 for 8 weekly 45-minute sessions. So far I've attended three classes and I'm really enjoying it. The instructor, Janet, is really nice and fun and the 45 minutes just fly by, learning dances like Waltz Across Texas, Cowboy Hustle, and the El Paso Cha Cha. If you're looking for a Zumba-like workout this isn't it, but I do break a sweat and I figure any hobby that gets you moving is a good one! For the record, I am not a country music fan, but I don't mind it for this type of dancing. The Center itself is very nice, located in a quiet residential area near the corner of Lakewood and Candlewood. There is plenty of parking and we have our class in the spacious Activity Room. The best part has been feeling like a young whippersnapper (even though I'm 40) because most of my classmates are quite a bit older than me, hee hee!

They have a nice water dispenser, fresh popcorn, television, just a relaxing atmosphere to rest and meet others, and have pleasant conversations, It was 90° that day, and we just wanted to keep out of the sun and rest up, and use the restroom facilities. Under the impression that if there's any bad weather, this is a safe place to be. Plenty of handicap parking outside as well. The bulletin boards listed plenty of activities, written in large print, and there were volunteers, to assist. Just a nice place that should be noted.
