testimonial "Essex Meadows surpasses all expectations you may have of any aspect of a retirement community. This has been my Mother's happy place for 18 years where I visited regularly, and I think of it more as a luxury cruise ship. The staff (all staff) are courteous, professional and attentive. The property is meticulously maintained and fully featured. Activities of every nature (external and internal) are going on all the time. The food is outstanding, as good as any restaurant I've been to. The residents are happy, active and a joy to engage with. When needed, the health center is, by my estimation, state of the art and expertly run. If there were a sixth star for exceptional, Essex Meadows has earned it and I thank them one and all (on behalf of my Mom) for setting the bar so high." Eric Bowman
testimonial "I like the comfortable environment and positive nature of people at Essex Meadows. A few of my favorite activities are the winter walks on trails of the property and adjoining preserve; swimming in our indoor salt-water pool; and attending weekly current events discussions led by a director who is well-prepared with challenging questions and up-to-the-minute news topics. As a relatively new resident, I find one of the best ways to get to know people is over a meal. The dinners here are delicious with lots of choices served by a great staff. Sandy M -- Resident" Sandra Mills
testimonial "We moved to Essex Meadows when caring for a house and grounds was getting to be too much for us. Now we can sit back and watch all the work being done without lifting a finger. Furthermore, at Essex Meadows, we have found that exercise classes, at multiple ability levels, as well as individual training when desired, are available and very manageable for us. Since the exercise is right here in the building, we actively participate." Joan Jones
