Overall Oaks at Fayetteville is a great place We're very pleased with the facility and they staff. They need to work on activities on the memory care side - taking the residents outside, etc. They have fewer things going on in memory care than in assisted living. But overall it's a well-maintained and well-run facility.
Read moreEverybody was extremely nice and helpful in getting me in touch with the right resources to move my loved one into the place. I thought it was a good facility and I can not think of any improvements that need to be made.
Read moreWhen we went to tour my dad liked the food so we did not have to look any further. The apartments are good, the studio is good and 1 bedroom is a good size. I think they could improve on the activities, apparently the bus that they provide transportation on is very uncomfortable and bumpy so he does not like to go out on it. But overall I would absolutely recommend them to other families looking.
