I had the pleasure of recently visiting this beautiful, vibrant community. Talk about first impressions! The lawn is well maintained with beautiful flowers and a beautiful walking trail for residents to enjoy. The receptionist greeted me with a beautiful smile. The Executive Director was very knowledgeable and resourceful.
I got to observe very active residents, laughing, engaging in conversations with peers and participating in a flower arranging activity, for Mother’s Day celebration. The food is delicious and presented well. My steak salad was excellent ; kudos to the culinary team. What a pleasant experience!!
I highly recommend this community for your loved ones.
The Residence at Orchard Grove is such a beautiful residential senior living community. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed with the immaculate cleanliness and could feel the care that the team provides to their residents. On our tour, many of the front line staff made it a point to go out of their way and introduce themselves. I was impressed with their leadership team as they were very knowledgeable about the role they play in their respective departments. Food is very important to my loved one and we had one of the best lunches that we have had when touring senior living communities. We also had the chance to participate in making floral arrangements for Mother’s Day. We are beyond excited to be moving forward with our decision in choosing Orchard Grove, it really felt like a home.
The facility is very nice, warm and welcoming. The staff are all really caring from the receptionists, dining staff, activity coordinators and care staff. Go out of their way to be warm and friendly. There are lots of daily activities along with a happy hour at 3 everyday. Lots of chances to socialize. The food in dining room is very good and open 7-7 everyday!

Great staff. The Aides are always courteous and understanding. Very accommodating to my needs. The food is very good and the chefs are accommodating to my limited diet.

The memory care neighborhood is one of the best around. Residents are treated with the same dignity and respect as the residents in assisted living neighborhood, and they are offered the same quality activities.

I love volunteering at Orchard Grove it is an awesome environment. With great people they make me feel at home. We have lots of laughs!
I am a volunteer and sit and talk with residents at this assisted living location 2 days/week. I felt compelled when I saw the care and love of the staff and residence to write a quick review. The facility is immaculate and well maintained. The residence can participate in
so many activities. Outside entertainment Is impressive and frequent. The staff are patient and kind and truly care. I plan on continuing to volunteer as I love it there. I would not hesitate to have a family member live there.
Thank you
Sandra
A Place for Mom sent me a list of facilities in my desired area. We toured three. All were very good, but Residence at Orchard Grove stood above the rest. The facility itself has an open, modern design, with lots of light and high ceilings in the common spaces. The decor is warm and inviting, and the furnishings welcoming and comfortable. The restaurant served us high quality, carefully prepared dishes. The apartments are well-designed and with large windows. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the residents seemed happy and engaged. We feel relieved to know that our mom is going to be living here. Her quality of life is getting an upgrade! Thank you to A Place for Mom for advising through the process.
What we like the most about The Residence at Orchard Grove is that there are a lot of activities, caring staff, and restaurant menu for dining. We would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had.
I had the pleasure of spending a day this week at Orchard Grove working with the Resident Engagement Director, Mary Beth. My experience was nothing short of exceptional. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a strong sense of community that really stood out. The residents were my engaged during my entire visit, with plenty of activities that promoted vitality and connection. The management team was accessible and welcoming, and it was evident that they pride themselves on making sure that both residents and their families feel at home. The receptionist, Paula, greeted me with a friendly smile, setting the tone for my daylong visit. Overall, Orchard Grove demonstrated that they are a community where associates strive so their residents thrive.
The staff is very friendly and caring.
There are different size rooms available. My mother's is a one bedroom and is a great size for her. There are activities going on every day. My mother is very happy there.
Mom has been at The Residence at Orchard Grove for one year. Her experience has gone way beyond my greatest expectation! Mom has made friends and feels very happy in her environment and with the staff and the other residents, who she calls her friends. It is a special place! I highly recommend The Residence.

Beautifully maintained facility, lots of daily activities, great restaurant and food options, caring and attentive staff.
I visited this facility
The Residence At Orchard Grove seemed lovely. It was pretty. It seemed to be a nice place. They had some good ideas for how they were putting the activities in front of the residents. They were in several different places and were on a website for family members to access, as well as putting them out in front on their way down to their meals. It's like 'Here's what's going on today, and here's what's going on this week' kind of thing. It looked friendly. It looked clean and inviting. I interacted with a staff member, and she seemed lovely. We did not take The Residence At Orchard Grove only because of the pricing. It was a higher price.
I visited a family friend and the atmosphere was awesome! Staff were incredible and there was a lot of things to do!
I would give this community the highest and best ratings. I'm very pleased with care is provided when seniors move to this community. They take very very good care of them, and their needs. The staff are great and comforting people. They are very attentive, and helpful. They accommodated many needs of the seniors. This is a community I would recommend.
Mom’s experience at The Residence @ Orchard Grove has gone beyond my greatest expectations! Mom has made friends and feels happy with her environment, the staff and the other residents. It is a special place!! I highly recommend The Residence!
AMAZING!!! Our experiences with Orchard Grove have been absolutely WONDERFUL. The care and attention our mom receives every day and night, along with excellent protocols that allow for tailored adaptation, have helped her progress from a wheelchair to a walker and a corresponding level of independence in her own apartment. Everyone - EVERYONE - we’ve met within the Orchard Grove family has a friendly smile, a welcoming word, a helping hand, a solution to any issue, and they all exude a most positive attitude. Our mom is remarkably happy living in this community! For a notorious hard-to-please woman, it feels like a miracle that we’ve been blessed with finding such a wonderful new home for her.
Orchard Grove has provided care that has been better than we could have imagined! The beautiful facility, the fantastic food, multiple activities from mid-morning and throughout the day (including a happy hour each afternoon) and culminating with a movie every evening, there is plenty to keep residents as busy and engaged as they want to be. In fact, they encourage residents to be out and about and involved. The apartments are comfortable, well sized, and bright and can be decorated by the residents, including hanging art on the walls. The management and staff provide extraordinary care and are always ready to lend a hand, answer a question, or just provide a smile to the residents, all of whom they know and call by name. If it sounds like I am gushing, I am: we never expected to find an assisted living facility that checked all of the boxes and then some. You can rest easy that they take their role of providing care very seriously and execute it to the highest level. The bottom line is that we are content knowing that our mom is happy and well cared for.
Staff at Orchard Grove are very kind and friendly.
She could bring her dog. Also the building is beautiful. Very welcoming atmosphere.
Hands down, THIS is the place I would like to spend the last of my days! Everything is top notch - care, food, activities (and such a variety!) the building and grounds and the staff. It just feels good to be there -
Another memorable music program at The Residence At Orchard Grove! The staff always create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and the residents brought such energy and enthusiasm to the afternoon event. Singing, clapping, and dancing together made for a wonderful time filled with positive vibes. It's always a joy to be part of such a vibrant community.
Orchard Grove is exceptional. I can’t say enough about the staff and the personal care and attention they provide, the decor and the many daily activities they provide for every aspect of senior living. I highly recommend Orchard Grove.
I am a vendor who brings entertainment programming to Orchard Grove. It is such a wonderful and welcoming community—we always enjoy our visits!! -Michael Winward, Steps in Time
Overall experience - seamless, enjoyable and continues to provide a level of calmness and gives a sense of security for my sister and I.
Cleanliness - exceptionally spotless! Probably antiseptic too!!
Friendliness of Staff - beyond kind, caring and considerate from chefs, maintenance, healthcare workers and front-desk staff. Management responsive and professional as well.
Quality of Care - wonderful. My sister and I have complete trust with the clinical and non-clinical staff. Everyone at this facility has deep concern for the welfare of our elderly.
Meals & Dining - my mother enjoys cooking for herself in her unit. However, the meals she has had and continues to have, on occasion, are healthy, top-notch cuisine and all served with the best kitchen staff and chefs in Massachusetts! I give this crew a 6!! (A 5, but wanted to state how much my mom loves team.)
My mother prefers to not participate in most activities. The ones she does do, on occasion, she's excited about and Orchard Grove goes all out to make these activities special and fun for residents and their families.
Value for Cost - I don't mind my mom's rent amount since she is safe, happy, her little unit is adorable and cozy
The Residence at Orchard Grove is so lovely. I was impressed at how happy the residents there were and how active the facility is.
When I visited, they had live music outside on the porch and also in the memory care unit. In the memory care unit all the residents were engaged in their environment and seemed quite happy. Really wonderful!
I am overall happy with the facility and care my parents are receiving. A bit overpriced though since they raised rates again this year. My parents have been there for a few years. One thing I don't like is that they wait to turn on the a/c as a newer facility I don't know why it would have to be that way since each unit has a thermostat in it. If there is a hot streak before they turn it on it could get very hot in their apartment. And same with heat.
We are very happy with Residence at Orchard Grove. My sister has benefitted from being in this community, she loves the staff & the food. The facility is always so clean and attractive and staff are very responsive to her needs.
I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Residence at Orchard Grove is very special place! The staff are caring and friendly, and the facility is beautiful and clean! I cannot say enough about how blessed we feel to have my Aunt at such a great place!
I cannot say enough about Residence at Orchard Grove. Their staff is amazing!! They all work together, seamlessly supporting each other, and most importantly, supporting the residents! I’ve looked at many communities and there is just something very special about Orchard Grove residents, they are happy. I had the pleasure to speak with a few residents on my tour and they love their apartment, the community and the exceptional care from the team. I was thrilled to see how many residents engage in the happy hour, it made me very happy to see them mingling with friends!
The journey to place someone is very complicated and stressful but the staff made it very easy and no stressful. Everyone was very helpful. They not only are concerned about the resident but the family too. They gave support for family members as well because it is a journey for the family as well as the resident.
We cannot say enough great things about Melissa and her staff! Always professional and compassionate towards every resident! Impeccable service and always with a smile! Thank you Residence at Orchard Grove for your dedication to the senior community!
I’ve been performing at Residence Orchard Grove for 2 years and each time I visit I’m greeted warmly by staff and residents alike. Playing at over 150 different communities in 6 states, this is a vibrant community that stands out. I’m willing to travel the 50 minutes to get here because it’s an hour of joy given and received!
Orchard Grove is the best! I love the people, love the food and love the atmosphere!
An absolutely beautiful residence, warm lovely people. Mary Beth is the best!!
A visit to Orchard Grove will leave you stunned, such a beautiful facility, I had breakfast their this morning while meeting with Melissa and had to ask? Are all the meals this incredible? The chefs at our breakfast bar were so accommodating, going out of there way to make everything perfect. With Melissa's hospitality, its no wonder this senior facility is always full.
Just a beautiful facility. Just as wonderful are the people who work there. Such a great team!!
