What Does Magnolia Glen Cost?
Magnolia Glen is a rental community with no entrance fee, and it does not publish its rates. Assisted living and memory care add care costs based on your parent's needs. Ask me for current pricing and I will get you the full monthly number in writing.
What Does the State Inspection Record Show?
Independent living is not state licensed, but Magnolia Glen's assisted living is, and it holds 4 stars from North Carolina, issued in June 2026 after its March 2026 annual inspection. It has had no state fines in the past three years.
The most serious item on record is from March 2022, when most exit doors residents could reach had no working alarms and a resident with dementia walked out and was found that evening at a nearby school. The state cited it as a Type B violation, and the community put a plan in place within days. You can read the reports on the state inspection page for Magnolia Glen.
