The Best Independent Living Communities in Will County, IL

"The tour I had at Franciscan Village was very good. It was organized, and caring and had an overarching feeling of a faith community, which was very attractive to both my mom and myself. It just so happens that we're practicing Catholics so that was a connection. They have a chapel and they have mass every day and things like that that my mom liked. We saw an assisted living room and we thought it was very spacious and well thought out, especially the roll-in shower setup. The shower was very spacious and safe so there were no safety concerns for the individual going from a walker right into a standing or seated shower position. It was all flat. The room was very nice. Christine was my tour guide and she was very good. She deserves a good review. She knows her product. She knows the facility. She's been there for at least seven years and she did a great job. The product kind of speaks for itself. It's a very nice facility and it has a faith-based add-on that not all other assisted living and nursing care facilities have. So, the extra thing speaks for itself. She deserves a good review. She earned it and the place earned it, too. She's not selling anything. She's just showing you what it is."

"We liked Clarendale of Mokena, but they had no availability. It was clean and friendly. They had a theater, an exercise room, libraries, and nice areas to sit down and relax."

"It has apartments where the residents could bring in a caretaker, and they can actually live in there. Then they have a nurse and staff, but it's totally different than the other facilities that are memory care. They had a lot of activities, and it was a very clean place. They had a professional gourmet chef on staff. So, the food looks a little more than just generic meals. The whole facility is brand new. The staff member who gave me the tour, she was very knowledgeable. They have a little theater in there, and the activities were just basic activities. I didn't see anything extraordinary for memory care there that she explained. It just looked like there were more gourmet meals versus family style meals, I would say; there was nothing cooking at that time. The facility is very clean."

"Hanover Place was a beautiful facility. The residents were tremendous. There were a few people in the lobby area, and everybody was friendly. The management team met me, and was quick to show me a unit, even without putting in an application. It's a wonderful experience. It's very quiet and very mature. It's really for seniors. They have some 50-something-year-old seniors, but mainly 62 and older. It's very, very clean. It's spotless and just tremendous. The landscaping is wonderful. It's serene and also quiet. There were beautiful birds everywhere (at least the day I went). Flowers bloomed, and it was just nice. We weren't even full into the summer yet, and they had flowers everywhere out there. It's in Tinley Park, and it is a beautiful town. The little appetizer that I got there was fresh and good. I could have split it with two people. That's how much it was. It was a lot. I had a little bag to take with me. They had a very friendly environment. There's nothing I wouldn't recommend about that place."

"I have toured Tinley Court for my dad and it was wonderful. It's older but very clean and very quaint, and the rooms were beautiful and also very clean. The person who gave me the tour, Jana, was wonderful and very helpful. Their dining area looked really good. When I got there, they were doing exercises as a group in the chairs, and it just seemed like a good community for the seniors."

"I toured this community for my parents. From the minute I stepped in the front door and met Nathan, it was like meeting a best friend! The residents were all smiling and engaged either in activities or with each other! It was such a comfort. Nathan explained with clarity every question I asked and adressed my concerns and anxiety. This is a hard phase for “the child” and he made me feel like part of his family and community!"

"We toured Brookdale Lisle's independent living for our father-in-law. Our salesperson, who's also the person who gave us the tour, was very nice. She answered all of our questions, showed us everything, and a couple of rooms. She showed us a studio and a one-bedroom, the ones we were interested in. She also showed us their nursing station and all their amenities. She was very pleasant and we enjoyed having the tour with her. They had a pool for exercising, a library, and a fitness room. They have a little garden outside and a garden group if you want to go gardening. It seemed like they had activities throughout the day, too. Their dining room was very clean and very nice. They had a little outside patio in the summertime. They put tables and umbrellas out there if you wanted to eat outside, and that was nice. The room we saw seemed very clean. The people we saw seemed happy to be there. There was a room where people got together and played board games. We saw a few people doing that and people exercising in the exercise room. It was a pretty big facility, and it was very clean. My father-in-law was pleasantly surprised. He said it was a lot nicer than he thought it would be, and I agree with him. We might be going back because they have happy hours every Friday, so my father-in-law kind of wanted to go to one to meet more people to kind of help make up his mind."

"I'm a resident of StoryPoint Naperville. It has a very homey atmosphere. I like the people here. The food is real good. In February, I'll be here 11 years. I wouldn't be here if I didn't like it. It's a very nice place to be. My apartment is adequate. It's plenty big enough for what I have here. It's a nice apartment. I have a living room, a bedroom, a large bathroom, a kitchen, and I've got a washer and dryer in the room, which I love. There's a lot of good things about it. There are different floor plans. I've been in the same one since I got here. We have a lot of activities. They have card games, different games, and socials. Especially on Fridays, a person comes in here and plays the piano. Everybody loves that. We will sit around and listen to him and then they have drinks and desserts. They have a nice front porch where you can sit in the good weather. I like the staff. They're very friendly and helpful. The food is very good. There's always something you can find to eat. I've been in different places where I've had therapy and there's no comparison with the food that we have here. I like it here. They'll take you to different stores, for scenic rides, to your appointments for doctors, to eat, and to church. The carpet is always clean. They keep things up real nice here."

"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."

"We chose Victory Centre of Sierra Ridge for Dad because they take Medicaid. Everything seemed fine. It's clean. Ashley was fantastic. They have arts and crafts and games. They have a whole room with various activities. The eating area was clean, and the people seemed to be enjoying the food. The room that they showed me was very nice. I think my dad will be very happy there. They have physical therapy and other things that I think will be beneficial to him."

"We toured Monarch Landing. It was excellent. The food was excellent. It was very safe and resort-like. The staff was Incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. They have all levels of care there. I know they just won an award as best in Illinois for skilled care, so that was also a good thing."

"Safe place to live. Staff are awesome."

"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."
