Cedar Creek

Overview of Cedar Creek

Cedar Creek is a 72-bed senior community operated by Cedar Creek at Kings Bay Inc. The property provides standard assisted living and memory care alongside 24-hour staffing, wellness programs, and pet assistance services. On-site amenities include an in-house library, a beauty parlor, a computer center, a bridge room, and scratch-made dining options. Residents have access to a daily activities schedule that covers crafts, cooking classes, gardening, group fitness, and social outings. Financial assistance plans are accommodated through the acceptance of Medicaid and Veterans Affairs benefits.

Official oversight records documenting 10 separate state visits between September 2012 and March 2025 catalog a total of 13 line-item flaws over the facility’s timeline. This frequency tracks 61% below the standard Florida facility benchmark. Because seven of those 10 regulatory checks turned up zero initial infractions, the home maintains a high long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for flawless reviews right out of the gate.

Compliance logs from 2014 to 2016 noted minor administrative hurdles with employee training files and medication storage, which management cleared up. The provider has put together a stable regulatory trajectory since then, as seven of its last eight state visits came back entirely clean, and regulators have never issued a financial fine against the business.

Older adults investigating local care options can look through these multi-year health department summaries to gauge the property’s management continuity. Since the state tracking base reveals an overall low citation count and zero penalty actions alongside a multi-year run of perfect marks, the documentation indicates a reliable operating setup. Arranging an in-person tour is a great way to check out the building layout, view the activity rooms, and discuss care coordination directly with the team.
