I have lived here almost five years and I am as happy as the day I moved in. I made the right decision when I chose Merrill Gardens at Tacoma.
The team members are wonderful. Rob, our General Manager, keeps MG Tacoma running smoothly. Brandon, our Chef, serves great meals every day with great food choices. The dining team are kind and thoughtful as they serve our food with a smile. The people at the desk are always willing to help us in any way they can. Scout, our Activities Director, along with her team, plan outings and in-house activities to keep us busy and active as we want to be.
Overall, life is good. I'm happy. I have friends. I'm blessed!
