I toured Southern Gardens in Lake Alfred in person. I would not recommend it. I thought it was horrible, and that's my personal opinion. I will never put my father there. It was very depressing. The cleanliness and the rooms were deplorable. The doors were open and you could look in the rooms, and that was just deplorable. The staff was friendly though.

My grandma was in this place. She is now passed on. I have been getting the run around about getting her stuff. It has been over a month and a half now. No calls back and the staff when they do give you different stories all the time. As a nurse I would never treat someone who just lost a love one l...

My grandma was in this place. She is now passed on. I have been getting the run around about getting her stuff. It has been over a month and a half now. No calls back and the staff when they do give you different stories all the time. As a nurse I would never treat someone who just lost a love one like this. Absolutely disrespectful.

Southern Gardens was a beautiful place, but it is over my sister's budget. It was very clean and very organized. I happened to get there at a time when their staff got together. They do that every morning to make sure that everybody is on the same page. The individual rooms were nice. The private room had a private bath, which was quite nice. It seemed like that they really care about their residents, and that's important. They had a lot to offer as far as activities provided you are able to do those activities. Everyday they were doing some activity. They also brought in entertainment. I was very impressed with that, but it was a little too pricey and it was a little far away. The menu looked wholesome. It looked like they would accommodate special diets. The staff members were very friendly. They wanted to help in any way they could. I was very impressed with the fact that the staff members sit down with each other and they go over everything as far as the care of the residents. The place was awesome and well maintained. The furniture was clean and well taken care of. Some of it was new.
