The facility is located in a rural setting near Winchester Lake State Park, approximately 35 miles southeast of Lewiston.

State regulatory records from the Idaho Bureau of Facility Standards show a citations-per-inspection rate of 5.5, which is 9% below the Idaho state average. Between 2019 and 2024, state surveys identified deficiencies involving staff training documentation, medication administration errors, and gaps in the facility’s fire safety systems. No immediate jeopardy findings or federal fines are currently on record for this specific license.

Clinical support is provided 24/7, specializing in long-term care for residents with chronic mental health conditions and cognitive impairments. The service model includes medication management, assistance with activities of daily living, and behavioral health monitoring. Medicaid is accepted at this location, providing financial options for eligible seniors and younger adults with disabilities in the North Central Idaho region. Pricing is not listed in available data and should be confirmed directly with the community.

The facility provides a residential setting with large common areas, dining spaces, and a front patio for outdoor lounging. While specific amenity packages should be verified with the administrator, the campus provides daily housekeeping, laundry, and meals. The facility is a sister community to the 64-bed Lakeside facility located at 605 Joseph Avenue and Palouse Hills Assisted Living in Moscow. Nearby medical support is available at St. Mary’s Health in Cottonwood, approximately 20 miles away.

Prospective representatives should contact the administrator to verify current staffing levels and the specific qualifications of the mental health support team. During an in-person visit, families are encouraged to request the current social and recreational activity calendar and ask for documentation confirming that all fire safety and staff training requirements cited in previous surveys have been addressed.
