Reviews also highlight excellent food, engaging activities, a clean and well-maintained building, and a wellness team that communicates openly with families.

Candlestone has been a blessing to my mother and to our family’s constant worry we had prior to find your location. The staff are so great and love my mom as if she is family. They address her always by her first name which is great bc that to me shows they know their residents well. The activities director is one of the biggest blessings to Candlestone, Katina’s a heart of gold and always represents herself as a calm loving person. Very easy for approaching if family or resident. She is like gold to Candlestone! The other staff members to note are Mary- beautiful lady and always greets you with a smile! Arielle and Madilyn both show genuine sincerity with anything you discuss with them. I’ve had at least 3 meetings with them regarding my mom’s care and their comforting personalities are priceless. In other words this facility(community) is wonderful!

This is the best place for your elderly parents. What truly sets Candlestone apart is their phenomenal staff. The caregivers are compassionate, highly attentive, and genuinely treat the residents like family. They took the time to learn my parent’s personal history, routine, and preferences, making the transition seamless. Most importantly, We have absolute peace of mind knowing my parents are safe, comfortable, and thriving. I highly recommend Candlestone to any family looking for a caring, supportive home for their relative.

My tour with Keri was not only thorough, it was reassuring. I needed to know what it would be like for my mother to live at Candlestone and I was able to meet staff, residents, see units and get a feel for daily life there. Keri was compassionate and so knowledgeable. I truly appreciated her time with me.

Life With StoryPoint Group

From Founder to Fan Favorite: Gene Cheers Again at 97

When Candlestone resident Ilagene “Gene” Doehring stepped onto the sidelines with the Merrill High School cheer team, it wasn’t just a walk down memory lane — it was a celebration of a legacy. At 97 years old, Gene fulfilled her Dream Big wish by rejoining the squad she helped found decades ago, proudly wearing the school colors and leading cheers once more.

“I may be 97, but when I was cheering, I felt 17 again,” Gene shared — a sentiment that perfectly captures her spirit and the heart of StoryPoint’s Dream Big initiative. From hand-sewing uniforms in her youth to rallying spirit in the present, Gene reminds us all that passion knows no age.
