In June of 2018 I was a total wreck, my health and mental state was such that my daughter and close friends were telling me that I needed to make a very difficult decision. I needed to relinquish my full time care responsibilities. It was literally killing me, one day at a time. This was increasingly difficult as my bride of 20 years was suffering from the Alzheimer’s disease.

From the moment you walk in you feel like you are at home. The community is on the smaller side but has everything you need. The staff was very polite and you could tell they really care about the people that live there.

My mom stayed at the memory care of Legend Gardens before she passed away. It was beautiful and they kept it very clean. It had been updated before my mom got there. Each room had its own bathroom, so it was very nice. I loved the staff. Everyone in the memory care was wonderful, Eddie in the front office was great, and they all took good care of my mom. I thought their food was really good. They didn’t have a chef, but they made the food in the main building, and they would bring it to the memory care area. Overall it was good, not gourmet, but Mom ate as much as she could for as long as she could. They were in the process of getting a new activities director, but they still have activities. People come in, there’s some singing, and there’s some exercising.

Legend Gardens is perfectly located in Palm Desert where the weather is always beautiful. Being close to El Paseo allows me to stretch my legs and go out for dinner once in a while. Life just couldn’t be better.
