Community Reviews
Soon to be resident of New Forest Estates
reviewed on: 08/23/2017 by AnonymousI have visited the New Forest Estates Independent Senior Living facility several times over the past 2-years. Michael Rivera assisted me every time answering my questions and guiding me in my process of selection. Michael was patient, kind, insightful, reassuring, supportive and generous with his time in answering my questions and misgivings about senior living. I've visited several independent living properties but none measured up to New Forest, especially for the price and value. Due to Michael's guidance I will soon be a resident of New Forest Estates Independent senior Living.
First Year Here

Review of NewForest Estates - San Antonio, TX
reviewed on: 10/17/2017 by Leslie Rodriquez[The] community is great. Employees are very friendly. We love it here.
Good Value
reviewed on: 04/28/2015 by AnonymousThis is an overall good community. A good value for the price. The staff is great except for the executive director, Randy. He is rude and condescending to people. I am impressed with Debra Thomas and Michael Rivera. They are excellent representatives of the community and great advocates for the residents. The food is not the greatest quality but is acceptable. The dining experience is well organized and they do have options for room service. They do have a variety in the menu. There is a pool on the property and a resident dog. The property is near shopping. They are remodeling at this time. There is plenty of parking available. They do have a van and have plenty of outings and trips to appointments within a 6 mile radius. Again a good community!
