We love the Carlisle. My aunt has lived there for 5 years and is really happy. She has made new friends and is much more satisfied than she was living home alone.

As a senior housing advisor with 30+ years of experience in senior housing, I have referred my families to The Carlisle many times. The apartments are nicely laid-out and the food and activities are excellent.
