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.
This community is absolutely beautiful! Every experience with the staff has been lovely. The residents are wonderful at this community and the best part the food! Recommend for anyone looking for loved one!
Visited this beautiful community, the staff were
very warm and welcoming. It was nice to see how happy the residents are.
The moment you walk into this building, you can feel that is is home. The building and people are amazing.
Residence at Orchard Grove is a beautiful community with compassionate caregivers and staff. The community is supportive and fosters an environment of caring, collaboration and camaraderie.
Beautifully maintained facility, lots of daily activities, great restaurant and food options, caring and attentive staff.
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!
Worked here for almost 3 years, I love the community, everyone is respectful and caring. It’s like my second family!
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.
Great place to work! Love my culinary team and the food we put out. Great residents and associates!
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!
As a student intern that has been working in the engagement department, I’ve learned so much and the residents are such a joy to be around. It’s such a fun place to work and spend my days.
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!!
I work in the Engagements department and it’s an amazing place to work!
I am a jazz musician (Alto & Soprano Saxes & Clarinet) and feel so privileged every time I am invited by Mary Beth, a delightful and caring soul, to come back and play for everyone at The Residence at Orchard Grove: it is one of my favorite, if not the most favorite of mine to play: everyone always greets you with a warm and friendly smile: all are polite, courteous, professional and nothing is too much trouble: the decor and ambience in all areas and in every room speaks of elegance, class and are most exquisite: there is a level of excellence rarely found these days and yet it can be seen and felt throughout: there is a ‘good feeling’ when one walks through those doors and it’s there because everyone genuinely cares. Thank you to all at The Residence at Orchard Grove for bringing so much love and joy to all.
Highly recommend Residence at Orchard Grove. Great value!!I specifically picked Residence at Orchard Grove because of the open meal plan
The staff at Orchard Grove is very friendly, the building is bright and clean and the residents are well cared for. What more could one want from an assisted living facility.
Omg I love this place my grandma lives there and the staff are amazing with her. they play fun games like keep it up with balloons and the residents just adore it!!! The reflections director always makes sure the residents have something fun to do and she is so nice. I definitely recommend!!! when I grow up I hope I can live there too!!!
We went to visit Orchard Grove just to see if it could be an option for my mother down the road. After meeting with Melissa, touring the warm, homey community, learning about the enrichment activities and meeting the rest of the caring staff, she put her application in for the next available unit.
Melissa’s was so warm, caring and understood the issues seniors face as they age. She talked with my mother about what life would be like in this community. My mother saw an exciting new life filled with things she thought were over for her. She saw that moving into Orchard Grove was going to enhance her quality of life vs living at home alone, cooking and cleaning for herself.
Since moving in, we can hardly catch my mother in her apartment as she has been welcomed by the other residents and immersed herself in the activities and enjoys the fabulous food she can order anytime of the day.
This is truly a special place for someone looking for a senior living community.
The Residents at Orchard Grove is a great place to work and grow. Great residents, great staff, great food!
The engagement team do such an amazing job! I enjoy bringing my dance students every year to perform at Orchard Grove. The management and associates deeply care for each and every resident. The dining service stands out exceptionally, surpassing any other in its quality and experience.

We were so impressed at the cleanliness of the faculty and the warm and welcoming atmosphere. We are looking forward to returning and performing for the residents in the upcoming months!!
My dance studio Anissa’s Dance Academy has been to Orchard Grove on numerous occasions to perform for the residents.

You can tell what a positive and friendly atmosphere it is for the residents.
We are looking forward to going back to perform for the residents and share our love of dance with them!
This senior living is an absolute gem! The staff members with genuine care and friendliness that truly enhances the overall experience. The tranquility of the environment is remarkable, providing a peaceful retreat for residents.
A special thank you to Mary Beth, who introduced me to the residents to teach cognitive cardio and laughter yoga.

Been working here for four months and love it! The team is nice and is very caring for the residents.
I am blessed to be teaching chair yoga to the residents at Orchard Grove. From the moment I met w Marybeth and she introduced me to a few of the residents, I fell in love with everything about this place. I have told so many people about how wonderful it is at Orchard Grove. From the friendly staff, how clean every part of it is, the grounds and of course the residents, anyone would be fortunate to have family members live here. Thursday mornings are my absolute favorite because I get to teach here. I could go on and on but just know this place is AMAZING.
I can’t say enough about this place. They have been absolutely wonderful. We flew my parents up from Florida last week and there were some medical issues with my father and we all have been treated with so much respect and care from everyone here. Everyone went over and above for the care of my parents. I would highly recommend this place for a loved one.
This is a great residence for you, or your loved one. Dropped my Grandma Gertrude off two months ago and she calls me weekly with lovely things to say. She raves about the care as well as kindness of the employees.
Great residency! My aunt lives here and she absolutely loves it. Staff is amazing and attentive! Love coming to visit! Definitely would recommend to anyone sending a loved one away.
The Residence at Orchard Grove is a beautiful facility with incredible staff who truly cares for their residents and those in their care.
In working, teaching, and being involved with seniors most of my life, my experience at Orchard Grove was over and above. There was zero negativity from both staff and residents alike. Food, activities, staffing, and a feeling of genuine caring all receive an A+.
The best place to work.. The community is amazing. The staff go above and beyond to care for the residents. I love working at Orchard grove
Excellent in all areas. ALL of the staff is attentive and caring. There are lots of daily activities for the residents. The restaurant and restaurant staff are excellent, and it is open all day. The building is very well maintained and very clean. There is lots of open space and areas for activities. The residents take care of each other and a strong community is encouraged.
This was a very difficult transition for my mother and I and I have been more than pleased. Better than I imagined. The staff has been so very nice and patient and along the way, I’ve been able to reach out with any questions. They have been sympathetic to our situation and listen to concerns and made us feel comfortable. They offer many things to do and no pressure if you choose to do your own thing. They allow you to treat this like your home and it’s a warm environment. They treat everyone with respect and always greet you with a smile. I looked at several places and this was by far my favorite. I trust this was the best decision for us and when I visit, I am thrilled she is in their care.
We were looking for an assisted living place for my friend as well as her dog! No small task. From the beginning of the interview process to the present moment the Residence at Orchard Grove exceeded our expectations! The facility is so beautiful and has so many areas to enjoy. The entire staff and the residents as well, are so friendly. The staff continually bend over backwards to address any needs as they arise. The numerous activities keep my friend entertained and social. Did I mention they have 4 star chefs? They have a memory unit as well -so when the time comes, the transfer process will not upset her. We made a perfect decision when choosing her new home!
The environment is always welcoming and the building is kept in pristine condition, constantly updating inside and outside. Our associates and residents make a world of a difference from other communities I have worked at. The numerous activities and events offer something for everyone! I would recommend Orchard Grove to my own family and friends!!
I have worked at Orchard Grove for over a year now. It is the best assisted living I’ve had the pleasure of working at. The friendly atmosphere makes it truly feel like my second home! The numerous activities and events always bring excitement to not only our residents, but for associates as well. I recommend Orchard Grove to anyone looking for an exciting job opportunity or a new place to call home!! 🤩
This is a fabulous, all purpose senior living community. It has about 80 units which are all full now. There might be a short wait to get an apartment. There is regular senior living, assisted living and a memory care section. The food is amazing! They run the kitchen like a restaurant in that the dining room is open from 7am-7pm. There's a menu for the day but you can pretty much order what you want whether or not it's on the menu for the day. They are very accommodating and work to please you. I was very impressed. Their activity calendar is full of quality interactive programs. I highly recommend it!
The staff here is great and they really seem to care about the residents. The community seems to be well managed and is always clean. The activities are great! There are so many for the residents to choose from. Great Interaction!
Vibrant community and many engaging educational opportunities offered.
Absolutely friendly, capable, and helpful staff. Caring beyond words can possibly describe and will go out of their way to accommodate any need whatsoever. Beautiful facilities; the layout and design is extremely ergonomic and perfectly suited for residents to move about with utter ease. 10/10, would highly recommend.
Great people to work with , friendly co workers have been there a little over a year.The staff really cares for the residents and there very engaging with the events they host throughout the year.
I am new to Orchard Grove staff but impressed with the amazing people, atmosphere and vibes at Orchard Grove. I highly recommend working here.
I had an awesome time hosting ‘Humor 101!’
Mary Beth and the staff were very welcoming and the audience was divine!
Hope to do it again!

I have been a resident for 3 years. I was so fortunate to choose Orchard Grove as my new home. The staff and residents make an ideal place to live. The food and servers in the dining room are top notch. There are activities throughout the day. Always something to do or just stay in your lovely accommodations. Outing to local restaurants ,plays or local recreation park. You can sit in the library reading a book by the fireplace. The choices are yours.
I love living here at Orchard Grove. I have made many friends and the staff are very helpful and friendly. I get to go to the gym everyday and still play golf every week.
I have been in senior living for many years and this by far is best community. The residents and staff are exceptional. The food is outstanding.. it’s beautiful and it’s constantly being update
The engagement team is always friendly, welcoming and helpful. The activities, events and social gatherings are amazing! Nice to see the residents happily interacting with each other.
