I went to visit Brookdale Vernon Hills and it was unbelievable. It's so impressive and gorgeous. It has a spectacular rainforest, and all the rooms face the rainforest. The woman that takes you around is the best I've ever seen and they also had great activities. It's a tough choice. I was looking at their independent living, but they go down to all the levels. At some point, if you're independent living and you need a little help, they can just take care of you while you're in your apartment. So that's convenient.

The staff at Brookdale Vernon Hills was well informed, helping us to better understand the options that were available, and the advantages and tradeoffs of each of the available apartments. The apartments have ample space, and several options were provided at various price points to help us with our decision. The facility was very well maintained. The rainforest and gardens were well taken care of. The sidewalks in the winter were well salted for safety. We were actually there right after a snowstorm, and the main lanes were cleared of snow and ice. They explained their local transportation for shopping and for doctor visits, and accommodations for residents to participate in, both indoor activities as well as outside activities that range from local parks, to museums, and other destinations that are very community driven. Residents' input seemed to be highly valued.

My mother-in-law has moved into Brookdale Vernon Hills. They've got a big atrium. We liked the studio right on the corner near the elevator, so she didn't have to walk very far. She liked that a lot, too. They've got a good transportation program. It just seemed to fit and it's closer to where we live and where her old home was. I don't have that much experience with the staff other than the salespeople, but my mother-in-law complains a lot. She had to do some work with the housekeeping people to get things on the right path, but overall, I think she's pretty happy. My mother-in-law is Italian and she has not complained about the food. She participates a lot in activities. She's a big fan of water aerobics and they have them three times a week there. It's very clean and well-maintained. On the move-in, I got to know the building engineer, and he's on top of it. It's not cheap, but it's competitive with everything else we looked at.

Brookdale Vernon Hills had a huge beautiful rainforest. So, they had more advantages to be outside. The rooms were just on the smaller side, but the upkeep was spectacular. The lady who toured us around was excellent. That was the first one I went to and she was extremely helpful. The food was also very good.

My mother is at Brookdale Vernon Hills. They're fine, and it's very nice. It is very good, except for the last year because of COVID. They have nice-sized rooms. They clean their apartments every week. They have not had anything available this year because of COVID, but they have a workout room and a library, they plan events, and they have a bus that takes them out to different events. My aunt lives there; that is why we moved her there, so that she could be with somebody. They may start next month, but they don't have anything going on right now. They used to go out to different restaurants, movies, or shopping.

Brookdale Vernon Hills was a big community, and it had a very pretty atmosphere and layout where everybody can look out of their apartments onto a rainforest. We toured two independent apartments, and they were both adequate in size for my mom. It's a busy and crowded place. They had a lot of features, like the pool. It's very clean. My concern is if my mother will need the full assisted living, she would have to move. They have the feature that if she would want to come in the wintertime and do a preview for a month's stay, they will allow that if they have the facility open. It's like a trial stay, but you pay for it. The staff was very helpful. It was a little overwhelming for me and my mom.

My friend moved into Brookdale Vernon Hills. It was lovely, and the sales person was great. He couldnt have been nicer. He came on a Sunday to accommodate us, and bring some other people through. My friend could not be happier. He got a 1-bedroom right across the elevator, and hes doing fine. He loves the food, the interaction with the people who are there, and its all good. He couldnt be happier with the staff, if he needs something, he pushes a button, and theyre there.

We had a good experience at Brookdale Vernon Hills. We saw a 1- and 2-bedroom and the amenities like the dining room, rainforest, and swimming pool. They offer movies and trips. The 1-bedroom was too small and claustrophobic, but the 2-bedroom was rather nice and had nice closet space, and even the smaller bedroom had enough room, and you can put in a bed and a desk. It had a bathroom, a walk-in shower, a kitchen with a dishwasher, and range. The place was very modern, but I didn't get a feeling of it being very cozy because it seemed more like a hotel. They play mahjong, and they showed us the art room, which was very good, and they said there's a gentleman who comes in once a week to teach Spanish. The staff member who helped us answered all our questions.
