I have had the privilege of representing Boise’s premier senior living community, Garden Plaza of Valley View for the last 6 years. I have a great love for seniors and enjoy serving them, as well as their families. Every day I have the opportunity to help improve the lives of our wonderful residents. I truly love going to work every day knowing that I work for the most amazing senior living community in Boise Idaho.
Garden Plaza of Valley View is the most peaceful and elegant place. Every time I visit I see smiling residents everywhere. The staff are very pleasant and helpful as well~
I am thrilled with Valley View and they way they treated my Mom. She recently moved to Idaho to be closer to myself and her grandkids and was looking for a new community to live in. We toured about 3 other places but this one felt like home and the staff was so welcoming and friendly. The grounds are amazing as well, you can really tell the people care about the property. We are excited to move her in!
Beautiful campus with good energy and feel about it. The administrator is extremely knowledgeable and helps families maneuver difficult situations.
"The staff was incredibly nice, the atmosphere of the staff and residents was quite happy and it was clean. To add to the experience, the food was quite tasty! Finally, the greatest part of it was that we expect to send our loved ones here when it is time. Thank you for the tour and information."
"If you're looking for a great facility to place the senior in your life you can't do better than Garden Plaza of Valley View. The community has a nice warm feel, and the staff treats the residents like family. Every time I visit I'm always impressed with how happy the seniors are, and how friendly the employees are to their residents."
We were impressed not only by the beauty of this building, but the longevity of staff. The people that lived there looked very happy and were actively participating in the arranged games and events. They seemed like well educated people. We didn't get a chance to sample a meal as the dining room was closing for lunch, but there was a huge salad bar and the choices were healthy offerings of vegetables and proteins to fit any dietary need. We also heard the chef was excellent and had been there 10 years. We saw a model room and it was delightful.
"We appreciate our business relationship with Garden Plaza. Their residents are warm and welcoming to our movers and the staff is great to work with. We look forward to successful future."
"Garden Plaza of Valley View Staff were very friendly and helpful. The Atmosphere is very clean and inviting."
"I visited many senior facilities for my mother in the Boise/Meridian area, and by far the best one is Garden Plaza of Valley View for many reasons. The exterior and interior are so beautifully appointed - it resembles an upscale ski lodge. The extensive lobby, dining room, gym, laundry room, common areas, elevators, etc. were all warm, inviting, spacious, attractive, and friendly. There are several floor plan options that would meet a variety of needs and tastes. The food is delicious - the international chef has been there for many years making sure the residents get tasty fresh meals. There are many interesting and fun activities available to keep the residents engaged and to create connections. Best of all, the staff are superb. I met with Lesly Cook (sales associate) several times and she is extremely accommodating, supportive, patient, and kind. She is so helpful with information, communication, and support during every step of this process. I would highly recommend visiting with Lesly and going on a tour of Garden Plaza if you are looking at senior facilities in this area."
The residents make everyone feel so welcome. The dining experience is fabulous, just like eating in a regular restaurant with so many mix and match choices or you can have the featured menu of the day. ALWAYS delicious! I love that so many families enjoy the events like Grandparents Day, BSU home game parties, opera, dancing and so much more. Sherrie does an amazing job at providing the entertainment and activities that residents can choose to be active everyday. The lodge-like decor is exactly spot on with an Idaho feel with cozy stone fireplaces to beamed ceilings. I feel as if I am in the Sun Valley Lodge. The staff are exceptional and have said more than one occasion that "They are privileged to work in residents home". They treat residents as if they were family. Way to go Garden Plaza!
"Experience and expertise. Shannon and her team go to great lengths to ensure each resident at Garden Plaza not only feels at home... but they're dedicated to making sure each individual gets the care they need. With the utmost confidence that I would recommend this beautiful community."
The staff is what really counts and these folks really care about their residents. From the office and administration, to the care givers, to the kitchen personals, these people all take pride in taking good care of their resident and treating them like they are family. Great job and keep up doing great work!!
"As a financial advisor I sometimes am asked the best place for care and community for seniors. I visited many and bar none this is the best I have been to in the valley. The staff is incredibly caring for all situations the activities and meals make it truly a home community as well. The access to the right people to help in the right situations at the right cost is perfect. Ryan and team thank you for the help with my father as well.
I am a neighbor of Valley View and had a wonderful experience with a staff member yesterday. I approached two ladies on their break time and asked for some assistance. Without hesitation, Char, said she could take care of my problem and she did so immediately. It shows me that Valley View has high caliber employees who recognize the value in taking care of people’s needs. I am sure that the residents receive and appreciate that kind of care and concern from Char and others daily.
My Dad lived here for 15 years. He made many good friends, and the staff was like family. All of the staff members from the house keeper that came to clean his room once a week, to the bus driver, the wait staff in the dinning room, the folks at the front desk, the managers and the activities director and more made him feel at home. Like family. When he got cancer, and had to go into assisted living, the staff there was equally as kind and careing. During the difficult time of his getting sick and passing, I was treated with the utmost kindness, compassion, respect and helpfulness. A large part of my heart is at Valley View, with the people who touched my Dad and I's life. It's a wonderful place to call home. I absolutly recommend Valley View.

If you are looking for innovative, fun, and positive minded community apply at Valley View today!
I had worked with Melanie before and she does a great job of making you feel welcome. I met with Ryan, the owner, and was impressed that he actually cares about the residents and the staff more than the bottom line.
We moved in at Garden Plaza of Valley View the first week of October. We have a nice large room and one very nice bedroom. We brought from home our big queen size bed, dressers, and things. The bathroom is very, very nice and the heating facility is nice. In the living room, we have our leather recliners and we bought a table. We have a wonderful facility. It's a big dining room and they serve three very good meals a day. On Friday evenings, they do have shrimp and fish, and roast beef. It's a variety of food that they have, and they're willing to make you most anything that you want that they have in stock. So they're very, very congenial in that way. They have Pinnacle and Bridge, and they have other games. They have musicians probably once a week. And the facility is very, very clean and very nice. The staff is excellent and very personable. Our room is cleaned thoroughly once a week. The inside of the building is immaculate. Their cost is very comparable to the other ones that we had looked at.
The staff at Garden Plaza of Valley View was very caring, very nice, and very helpful. The facility was absolutely gorgeous, it would have been a place I would have chosen. The residents were playing cards, visiting, they were watching TV, and doing puzzles. They had a library, they had a central gathering area for people where they sometimes would have music come in and things like that, and they also had an exercise class.
