About the Area

 

What's Been Said...
“There are many things that set St. Mary of the Woods apart from other communities. Independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing are all under one roof and available as needed, if needed. A beautiful chapel, available for use by other than just Catholics is welcome here. We’re close to many facilities and a large shopping center and central to medical assistance with hospitals and doctor’s offices.”
John and Peg L., residents for 2 years
