Living at The Lutheran Home at Topton is pleasant and comfortable. I have a large, sunny room with a lovely view. Meals are tasty, the nurses are kind and caring, and the housekeepers keep the facility clean and tidy. The entire staff is very friendly and helpful. I enjoy the many social events that are available every day.

I found personal care to be very friendly and the exercise and activities are great! I also enjoy the trips we take off-campus.

Our first impression of Buffalo Valley was ‘this is like our home’. We loved the wide-open community with its neat cottages and green areas. We had previously lived for 38 years in a suburban ranch house and were greatly pleased with the similarity of the Buffalo Valley Campus.

The following are the ’10 Top Reasons’ we enjoy living at Buffalo Valley:

A comfortable home in a secure neighborhood

Maintenance-free living; all repairs, grass cutting & snow removal are taken care of for you

A friendly, caring, responsive staff

Good neighbors and friends

Ideal location convenient to: Lewisburg – a nice town with Bucknell University & the Weis Center for the Performing Arts; shopping, public library, farmers market with fresh local produce, good restaurants, Highways I-80 & Rt. 11/15

Excellent doctors and medical facilities. Evangelical Community Hospital in Lewisburg (five minutes away) is a “world-class hospital.”

Worship services conducted by our own chaplain

Social activities, holiday celebrations, dining options

Physical activities – walking trails, gardening and bocce ball court.

Simply sitting on our front porch and chatting with our friends passing by

We were happy with our beautiful home on the lake in Boiling Springs; however, we started feeling overwhelmed by its maintenance. With both of us being “70 something” we realized we were somewhat house bound relative to its upkeep, not traveling as much as we would like and that financially, it was time to plan for our future home and care; not waiting for circumstances and having someone else make this decision for us. After a comprehensive search, we simultaneously said to one another “Cumberland Crossings, that’s the one!” Beautiful grounds, lovely mountain views, walking paths surprising us with wildlife, great dining, wonderful people who speak to one another, wave to one another, support one another; a staff that is so considerate to every need – social, medical – and in friendship. This is our home. This is Cumberland Crossings.

Life at Cumberland Crossings has exceeded our expectations. Tom sings in the chorus and enjoys the library and discussing history with other residents. Betty enjoys aquatic exercise, bible study, and volunteering in the gift shop. We are both still active in the Carlisle community while also enjoying the company of our many new friends. The most beautiful music in the world is the sound of someone else shoveling our sidewalk or mowing our beautiful green grass! We are active and healthy and plan to stay that way for a long time, but it is very good to know that, should we need it, help is right at hand, only a phone call away. Looking back, we can honestly say, we made the right move!
