  After six long years of unkept promises, disappointments by management and third party "prison like" dining, New Forest Haven Independent Living -- presently owned by Colliers Bank and under management of 12 Oaks -- is making a rapid and positive reversal of course. Executive Director Daniel is very transparent and truthful when sharing information with residents. Patti in three weeks has shined as the best activieis director we have ever experience since my wife and I moved here (if something doesn't work out as planned one way she makes it work).

  New Forest Haven is a fantastic location. I went there with my dad, and the staff is so warm and inviting and caring. Stacy, who hosted us and gave us a tour, it’s just fantastic. You definitely want your parent to be surrounded by the people that work here.
