1111 South 376th Street, Milton, WA, 98354
Assisted Living, Memory Care, Independent Living

"Wow, I'm surprised to see that the recent change of hands isn't mentioned, and that this place is rated best of 2026, when 2026 just started! My parents moved there and love the cottages and simplicity of having the internet and cable TV (and maybe utilities?) all rolled into one package. They were also getting weekly housekeeping. Unfortunately the new management company (Avenue 5 I think) took over, so without notice they don't get any of those things, but are expected to keep paying the premium rent. My parents hoped to never move again, and the management seems to be leveraging that against them. Really unfortunate, and do not recommend!" - Emily…

"Merrill Gardens is lovely unless one actually needs the assisted living that they advertise. We had hoped that our parent would be able to end their days there, but Merrill Gardens is unwilling to provide the care they advertise and that is listed on the contract we signed. Furthermore, their head nurse is really unfit for dealing with the slightest problem and should really find employment where she doesn't have to deal with people. Many of the staff are lovely, and the facility is beautiful. Just don't plan on ever transitioning from independent living to assistant living. They cannot provide it as advertised." - S.…

Assisted Living, Memory Care

"I do not recommend Spring Ridge due to extremely poor management and poor communication. My sisters and I placed my mom here and within 2 weeks we were ready to move her out of there to another place, which we did after about a month. The head nurse of the memory care section does not return phone calls in a timely manner, 4-7 days after you leave a voice mail she might return your call. The director appears to be burned out as she acted so uncaring and dismissive to us if we had questions or concerns. On the phone and in a meeting she talked to us in a condescending, dismissive, cold manner. I think this place just wants your $$$ so if you are considering this place for a loved one, I would definitely check elsewhere." - Sandy…
