The Best Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Carroll County, IL

"Parkview is good. I have friends up there too, and I know Freeport well. We found one and two bedroom apartments. They showed me a house too, but I wasn't interested in a house. The space was good. All of the places I think had other spaces in the basement or somewhere in the floor to store out-of-season things. The staff was all nice. Their activities are good too because they are in an area where they can run a bus down to Timber Lake Theater in the summer. They also go over to Rockford and various places, so there are a lot of good activities there. There is plenty of area to walk safely if you wish. "

"Parkview Home of Freeport is a very clean and nice facility. It's an excellent place and I'd like to see my in-laws there. One girl we met was very friendly and showed us around and showed us the amenities. She was very helpful and answered all our questions. The apartment came with a meal each day. They had card games and all kinds of stuff they can do and participate in. The apartment we saw had a nice little porch with it. The place was very clean and had no smell. It's a little on the pricey side for my in-laws by it's a good facility that's well-worth it."

"My family member was a past resident here while recovering from a hip fracture. The Sterling Pavilion is now under new ownership and is now called The Citadel of Sterling. Since my family member was here for about 8 weeks, I can tell you that I witnessed exceptional, personalized care. Citadel of Sterling provides the resident with compassionate care and their therapy here is out of this world amazing. They have state of the art equipment that helped my family member get so strong in such a short period of time. They worked diligently with us to get her where we wanted her... HOME. So friendly, caring and my family member raved about the food and the one on one attention. The building is beautiful, have a brand new outdoor area which is lovely,It is funny because my family member said she was spoiled when she was there, and now has to come home and misses the fun activities and all the friendly faces. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone I know and I can tell you if you live in IOWA or WISCONSIN it is worth placing your loved one here because this place is the BEST!"

"I went to Morningside of Sterling. It was a great place, a little too pricey for me at this point, but they had all kinds of activities. It was very well kept. The apartment that I saw was a studio deluxe, and it was roomy enough. They had bingo going on, and they invited me back on the 29th when something was going on for some kind of a celebration, so I was more than welcome to come. For those that can afford it, I would recommend they check it out. They allow pets at an extra cost."

"We've chosen Pinecrest Manor for my father and he will be in the memory care/Alzheimer's unit. I have talked to a lot of people in the community, and I've never heard anything bad about it. For a small town, they provide a lot of services for seniors. The staff was very caring, very easy to talk to, and very accommodating. We're just in the beginning stages, so we haven't talked to a lot of people. It's very easy to get to. It's kind of on the edge of town, so it's a nice location. I have been in to visit other people who were in rehab, but as far as I can tell, things are kept up very nicely and the grounds are very nice. The only thing we've been involved in is the Alzheimer's support group, and we've been very happy with it."
