Sample family reviews
From families
At home Mom screamed every evening at five. The first week at Quarry House, Rosa called to say she'd fallen asleep in her chair with a cup of tea. I didn't believe it until I saw it.
It's the silence. You walk in and you can hear the clock. Dad noticed it too. He told me, 'This is a nice hotel.'
They took Mother off two medications for agitation. With the noise gone, she didn't need them.
The Tuesday hand massage is the one appointment my wife never forgets.
I visit after work, around seven. The lamps are low, someone is reading aloud. It's the calmest hour of my whole day too.
Mei sat with my father through a bad night and called me at six just to say he was finally sleeping.
Every place we toured had a TV blaring in the hall. Here there wasn't one. That decided it.
Teresa helped us with the VA application and checked on me afterward. Nobody had asked how I was doing in two years.
Grandma's room has her quilt, her lamp and her window. She calls it 'my place.' That's everything.
Come hear how quiet it is.
Call or text Anneliese to set a time. Most families say the silence is the first thing they notice.
