Independent Living Communities in Huntley, IL

"My mother will be moving into GreenFields of Geneva. We chose it mostly because of the location. It's very close to one of my other siblings. She'll be going to memory care. I like that there was a separate dining area like each area was separate. It looked like a smaller dining space for memory care and the unit itself was in a U-shape. They have nursing staff available 24 hours a day. The staff during the tour was great. She gave us a lot of information, was upfront, and has helped us through this process as we are starting the move. What they had to offer in terms of activities and the availability of physical therapy and speech therapy is five stars. We have to have a doctor prescribe that, but it's nice that it could be onsite."

"I visited Encore Village of Schaumburg. The staff was great. It was a pretty nice place. I had no problem. It was clean and convenient to get around. Everything was right there. You didn't have to walk them out to get here and there. The patio was clean and beautiful."

"Covenant Living at the Holmstad was a beautiful facility. Not only the building itself, but the landscaping was very large and beautiful. There were lots of places for residents to be able to walk. They had gardens and trees. It's the most beautiful place I've seen with a price to match. They request a large deposit and then monthly charges, which could increase yearly. There are no meals at all. The salespeople were extremely nice. It's just we can't afford it."

"The Grand at Twin Lakes was beautiful. I loved it. I liked the layout, the design, the brightness, and the attentiveness of the people. They have an indoor pool and a beautiful patio. They have units with a balcony, too, which is lovely. On their lowest level, they have a movie theater that has movie seats and a huge screen and a kitchen where if I wanted to go there and cook meals with my dad or for my family, I could. They also have little rooms that you could have for family gatherings, a library, and a coffee bar where they do happy hour. There were so many people out in their community rooms just sitting and reading. It's just lovely and bright."

"I like that Addolorata Villa feels like a family community. I like that the residents were out setting up some of the Christmas decorations and the chef stopped to talk to us and there was a guy who mans the gym area like he's there all day. It's just a nice feature. The staff was very friendly. It was clean. One of the drawbacks is that it's kind of spread out. The atmosphere was very pleasant. I only saw two-bedroom rooms and they looked comfortable."

"The staff at Victory Lakes were superb. My parents lived in Independent Living until my dad passed away. The last 1.5 years my mom was in Memory Care. In each area we witnessed loving and caring employees who always had our parents best interest in mind. Victory Lakes was an excellent place for my Mom at the end of her life. The Catholic services, communion in home, visits with music staff, exercise and activities brightened Mom's day. The staff accommodated for our 7 sibling visits from out of state, Mom's dietary restrictions, medication changes and in the end, Hospice care for Mom. Fred was Moms' favorite nurse ~ he would sing to her and she would find great joy in that! It was a blessing to honor Mom and Dad's desire to live independently through their continuum of life at VL."

"My sister in law has been a resident since 2015. At first she was hesitant about moving there. She meet with staff and one of the lovely residents and has happily been living there since. She has found a second home where she has been enjoying life. The staff are all like family to her and us. She receives the best of care , great meals ,entertainment and great friendships among the other residents. My wife and I are more than happy to have found a great place like Jennings."

"The rooms a spacious and well maintained. Food is customized My mother in law has been a resident for over 3 years and enjoys everyday which is filled with activities and fellowship."

"Sunnymere was clean. People were friendly. The rooms looked nice enough. It's not a five-star resort, but it looks very comfortable. The meals looked like they were good and they had a lot of activities. It looked like a place that my dad could maybe fit in and make some new friends. It's an older place. There might be some people who would say that it's not fancy enough or whatever, but it's homey looking. Everybody was friendly. I think it was Judy that was showing me around. Seemed like she knew what was going on. They went out of their way to make sure that they could give me a room that I felt my dad could be happy with. The grounds are beautiful. They have a new community room for activities and things, and that was really nice. Affordability was definitely the main concern for me, and I don't feel like I would be cutting corners putting my dad there just because it was the most affordable."

"The facilities are well kept with more spacious apartment floorplans than others in a similar location and price point. The activity areas are large and well appointed for the daily activities, entertainment, and educational offerings. Their dining services are great with a wide variety of meals and a weekly Sunday brunch. Most importantly the staff is very friendly and professional. Everyone from the front desk to the available home service care givers get to really know their residents, and even their families. I feel comfortable knowing my father is surrounded by good people."

"We chose Lexington Square of Lombard for the location because it's closer to most of us compared to some of the others that I looked at, and they are all very caring people. I like their tenure. Most of the staff has been there for quite some time and that was important to me because my cousin is in memory care, and I wanted to make sure that the staff knew how to deal with memory care. Safety is pretty good. I have to have a passkey to go in and to get out. They don't let just anybody in. The residents aren't able to get on the elevator on their own. I like the fact that the residents all wear a little beeper to page a nurse if need be. She has indicated that the food was very good. I like the variety. She is diabetic, and they are paying attention to that, so I thought that was great. There are things that she doesn't like, but I didn't see anybody complaining. They seem to be keeping her quite busy. They have her up and dressed every day. She's always doing something. The facility is very pleasant, very homey, and very clean. Everybody just seems very comfortable there."

"I toured the Grand Victorian of Rockford. It's classy, and even though it's grand Victorian, it is still more modern. It doesn't make you feel like you're walking into a Victorian mansion. It is very welcoming and comforting. They've got all of the services. Everybody was pleasant. I love some of the rooms. It's all one room, but it has a half wall that you can split to have your bedroom on one side and a living room on the other, which impressed me and was wonderful. A gentleman took me on that tour, and we were standing and talking. One of the staff members introduced herself to me and said how wonderful the place is, even to work there. She seemed sincere. It didn't feel like a setup. Most rooms have a refrigerator and a microwave, but no stove or anything, even for assisted living. So, the person can still have snacks or do things in their room. They have the pull cords and everything, but they also track whether or not somebody is showing up for meals. They all have a button on them. The nice thing is that they are aware of their people and call people by their names."
