"My wife and I moved here from our home in Roseville, six years ago. At first, we were skeptical because we didn't know what to expect, but we found our new home very nice, clean, and well-kept.

We discovered the enrichment programs and various entertainment offered.

The religious atmosphere is tolerant to all faiths.

Transportation to stores and banks is provided on a weekly basis.

At first, we felt isolated and lonely. It took some time for us to meet and know the residents.

Eventually this changed because of the nice people here. We found residents very friendly.

Our apartment is well maintained.

One thing we like very much is the lunch and evening food service.

Most of all, we like the staff.

The library is very good.

A workshop, pool room, garage, car washing facilities, exercise machines, free laundry equipment are here too.

Unique is the beautiful setting with its courtyard and many flower gardens.

We highly recommend Scandia Shores."

"I can’t explain my feelings about Scandia Shores in just a couple of words. Everything just clicked. God blessed me and brought me to the perfect place. Twenty years ago, after my husband died, God told me he had a plan for me. I didn’t know it would take 20 years, but I know this is His plan."
