I’ve been meaning to reach out for several weeks now to extend my family’s sincere gratitude to you and the entire team at Holland Gardens. From the moment we inquired about the residence and what it could offer my father, we were met with nothing but professionalism, kindness, and a wealth of helpful information.

I would especially like to recognize Melissa McKee, who went above and beyond in every interaction. Her compassion, patience, and thorough knowledge made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel manageable and even reassuring. We also had the pleasure of meeting Amanda Santos, the Health & Wellness Manager, who was equally welcoming and informative. Your front desk receptionist was always friendly, and the overall atmosphere of Holland Gardens stood out among the many facilities we toured in Bradford, Newmarket, and Aurora.

Without a doubt, Holland Gardens would be our first choice. At the moment, my father is somewhere between independent and retirement living, so we’re still determining the best fit for him. That said, should circumstances change, we will not hesitate to reach out again.

Thank you once more for the outstanding service and care. Please pass along our appreciation to your entire team — and especially to Melissa, who truly deserves recognition for her exceptional dedication.

“From day one we have had nothing but great experiences. Our first tour was friendly, simple and extremely polite. Our personal privacy was not invaded and since arriving here in December of 2024 nothing has changed. The staff, the entire staff are warm, friendly and accommodating. We receive housekeeping once a week and our suite is dusted, vacuumed, and any garbage and all recyclables are removed. The bathroom is cleaned, and all our linens and towels are washed and dried and even returned the same day.

The meals are delicious, filling and well varied. The servers are fabulous and look after your every request. They are courteous and very pleasant. Fantastic is the best way to describe them! Alcoholic beverages are always available if that is your desire. Breakfast is available –either self serve or you can take it back to your suite and have it in privacy if you desire.

Entertainment is varied and interesting – horse racing, bingo, Jeopardy, Bridge, Euchre, Pass the Ace, any card game a group wants to play. We haven’t missed a celebration. Christmas, New Year’s, Easter, Robbie Burns, St Patrick’s Day. We celebrate them all and Holland Gardens is willing to try any suggestions that the residents put forward. Today we were invited to pick up a glass vase and fill it with a variety of beautiful flowers. Our creations came back to our suite at no cost to us.

Now that summer is here, we often take our lunch and supper out on the patio and enjoy the sun and clear skies. We have BBQ meals that are served both outside and inside throughout the summer. Holland Gardens welcomes guests to enjoy meals anytime you wish. Prices are reasonable or can be charged to your account. At least 4 times a month we go out in the community to enjoy meals for outings such as the casino in Orillia, Bingo in Newmarket and Sutton. The transportation is provided by competent drivers who are all courteous and extremely safe. The rules of the road are adhered to. Pets are permitted.

It was a huge decision to leave our home of 87 years, friends and familiar happy places. The only thing we feel we left now is the freezing cold temperatures and the snow that didn’t bother us but that we’ve found very little of here.
The 100 plus residents that we’ve met since moving here are all 100% great people.
