One Lincoln Park

Larry

We toured One Lincoln Park. It was clean and quiet, but it was monstrous. The room that we saw first was a single bedroom, and it was kind of small. The other one we saw was a two-bedroom, and it was bigger. They did say that everything was included, but you had to pay for phones, TV, and probably the Internet. They were all very friendly. They spoke and smiled. For us, it was too big. It had a library and a coffee place that had more than just coffee available. It also had a pathway to a big park where they put on live music.

Of all the places that I visited, One Lincoln Park was #1 for sure in my mind. The staff was great. The interviewer was great. Their follow-up was really good. Their brochures were great. I got to speak with a lot of the different staff while I was there. If they would have offered the Medicare paydown thing, I would have put my brother there for sure. As far as I'm concerned, they're 5-stars all the way across. They did an excellent job. The facilities were great, and the people were great. I don't know what they would improve on. I visited several of the people there. They just seemed to have more of a sense of community there. It seemed like everybody was more in tune with what was going on, both the residents and staff. I did not try the food, but it all looked appetizing. I was there during a meal, and it certainly looked good. I don't know if it was good though. The rooms were really, really good. I like their facilities really well. It's well kept and spacious and the thing I thought that was really cool was the size of the bathroom. The bathrooms were huge. When someone has got different kinds of disabilities, I thought that was a really good idea. The bathrooms were really big and laid out well; they provided plenty of room for everything you might need to do. I really like that part. They have a barbershop and an in-house healthcare located within their building, which was really helpful. They did all kinds of stuff outside, and it is adjacent to Lincoln Park which is a really nice outdoor park; it's huge. There's a park there with a lake. If they're able to, they can certainly go there and do whatever they want.

One Lincoln Park was very nice and quite impressive. I think it would rate a little bit better than the other place. For example, the carpet seemed to be a little better quality than the other place. It was beautifully appointed. They had a bar where they would have happy hour. They had similar amenities, and the staff was just exceptional. They had a studio and two-bedroom apartments. Surprisingly, I could probably even afford to live there at least at the current prices, and that was kind of a relief to me.

One Lincoln Park was a very nice place. The surroundings were very nice and the rooms were very nice, too. We did have lunch there, which was very good. We had a favorable impression of the place. The main person that escorted us was very nice and very knowledgeable. I couldn't say anything bad about him. It's a high-rise place and we visited a couple of rooms there.

One Lincoln Park was very nice, and their food was better than the others. It's clean, and they had lots of activities and unlimited transportation within a specific mile radius. The staff was very good. The rooms were very nice and adequate size. They had a lot to offer there.

I love this facility. Staff is excellent. Apartments are great in every way. Food is excellent. Transportation is available to appointments, shopping, and church services. For me, there is only one drawback--price. For a one bedroom apartment, I would only have about $300 per month for personal needs such as prescriptions, clothing, and necessary family/friends/charitable giving.

My brother and I visited One Lincoln Park (and other places) when searching for a comfortable and safe independent living community. We found OLP to be a very clean, bright, and friendly place. The residents, that we came across during our tour were very cheerful, and each one recommended OLP to us. OLP has a variety of room layouts, with several different pricing options. The dining room and bistro provide an assortment of different foods daily. Residents can participate in a considerable number of activity opportunities. OLP is also located very close to the Fraze Pavillion and Kettering Civic Commons, for easy walks, and where an assortment of spring and summer events can be heard or attended. Our mother has now been at OLP for about 5 months, and she seems very pleased. She has made several new friends, has stated that the staff is very responsive, efficient, and courteous. We all feel that it has been a very good choice!

I visited this community several times and called Jack about as many times with questions. The result was that I was so impressed with the staff, reasonable rates (no large endowment fee), appearance, amenities and services included in the rent, that I put a deposit fee and signed to be on the wait-list for a studio apartment. I especially liked the fact that chauffering is included and that once on the wait-list I am already a part of the community and can participate in all the activities as a resident. Good job

I like a lot of things about One Lincoln Park. They have studio apartments that I might be able to afford, and they also have a step-down place if I get infirm or start to fall apart. I like the fact that they provided supper and I can also get my own lunch and breakfast. They also have a valet service. It was a pretty nice community. In the evenings they have activities, and they also have trips for the residents. The staff member who gave me the tour was very nice, she showed me two studios -- each a different size -- and a 1-bedroom apartment. They were nice.

My parents journey, searching for a new home, began in early 2017. Mom was somewhat familiar with OLP from having friends that are current residents and had had the pleasure of visiting. We then decided to o call OLP and make an appointment to visit. I called and spoke with the Kim, the retirement counselor. She was very understanding in the nature of my families situation, a couple of sixty years and fifty year residents in their home. Kim went out of her way to arrange a visit that was accommodating to our busy schedule. She guided us through the facility, showed us multiple apartment options, introduced us to Mike, the dining room manager and Zeva the moving coordinator. All whom play an important roll in OLP and making residents feel comfortable in their home. After multiple visits, thorough explanations of the facilities offerings, introductions to satisfied neighbors, nice complimentary meals my parents decided to make OLP their home. With the support and professionalism of the OLP staff they made a difficult move a comforting experience. My folks are now satisfied residents. Thank you

One Lincoln Park was very nice. They had a lot of activities and rooms where you can do different things. They had a nice dining room and transportation for people. It was nicely set up, we liked everything about it. The only problem is we can't afford it. I was invited for lunch and it was very good, including the service. You can get a 2-bedroom or 1-bedroom apartment, but they're pretty small, and you have to bring your own furniture.

One Lincoln Park is a nice place. They just stick to the rules too much. The people who worked there have become almost like family because in 2004 when my brother-in-law moved in 13 years ago it was -- and still is -- a pretty little residence. They'll take the people in cars to their doctors, but they are not checking up on what is going on behind those doors.

We went to One Lincoln Park, which is a 5-star place. Everything is just fine. It’s a very nice place and very close to my son’s house. They’re all very nice here. They’re completely re-doing the place with all new paint, counters, linoleum, and rugs. The place will be very, very nice. It’s 844 square feet and very pleasant. Everything is very much to my liking there. The apartment that I have is within a few feet from the door that leads straight to the parking lot where my car is. They have a valet service for parking and chauffeuring to the grocery store all included in the price. It’s all very nice.

The staff at One Lincoln Park showed me their brochures, and were informative and professional. The atmosphere seemed very nice. Their price was reasonable. The place was clean, new, and modern.

One Lincoln Park Retirement Community was very expensive. There were a lot of programs, speakers and entertainment in the facility. There were also games like bingo, and one-man bands. They always sent me invitations because it was near my house.
