Summer’s Landing, LLC
Summer’s Landing is a 50-bed, for-profit assisted living community operated by Summer’s Landing LLC and managed by administrator Cynthia Varnes. The facility features 24-hour staffing, medication assistance, and dietitian-approved meals. It accepts Medicaid, VA benefits, and private insurance. Residents can participate in daily activities like fitness classes, music, and group outings, and the facility handles basic housekeeping services.
Data spanning 12 years and 27 inspections shows a total of 31 deficiencies. This averages out to 1.8 infractions per year, which is 61% lower than the state baseline. While early records from 2013 to 2015 showed clusters of issues with medication management, staffing, and background checks, the facility’s compliance records have shifted significantly since then.
Most inspections from 2016 onward resulted in zero deficiencies, including multiple clean reviews throughout 2024 and 2025. The provider has paid six fines totaling $19,500 over its history, but has no severe enforcement actions on record.
Interested individuals can look to the facility’s multi-decade operational history and its strong recent run of clean inspections as signs of long-term stability. Since the older infractions regarding medication and staffing have been consistently avoided in recent years, the current data points to a well-maintained care environment. It is still helpful to speak with the administrative team during a facility tour to confirm how they keep their current staffing and training protocols running smoothly.
