Independent Living Communities in Bloomington, IN

"I love visiting my mother here. From amazing staff to super friendly and social residents, it’s an overall amazing place every time I visit."

"Bell Trace Senior Living seemed like a really good option for my parents. There was a waitlist for the separate homes. That would have been the best option, but then they had some nice apartments that were good. The residents all seemed happy. There seemed to be a lot of things going on. They had weekly outings. It was really nice and really pleasant. It was a very accommodating and really pleasant place. The staff was amazing. They were professional. They kind of knew what to ask and I feel like they had seen it all."

"Gentry Park Bloomington was nice. That seemed like a great option for my parents. I like them a lot. The staff was great. They were very accommodating. It's a newer facility. So it seemed kind of nice. I had some dessert there and it was very good. I know some people that are there and they are happy."

"I toured Autumn Park of Ellettsville. What I really liked about it was the fact that it's a smaller facility, and it's a very new facility. I liked the fact that it's not in Bloomington so that when I need to go see my mother, it's less crowded. Traffic isn't as bad. The units themselves are very clean and spacious. They have a studio, which is what I think she needs. They have that available. It's a really good option because they have lots of things that make you feel like you've got your own kind of independence to a level that you can handle it, such as you have a microwave, you have a refrigerator/freezer, and you can bring in your own little appliance. They have lots of activity spaces there. They have indoor and outdoor recreational areas. They have a movie room where you can go watch movies with others if you want. The staff is very friendly, and very interested in working with me. They were very knowledgeable about what kinds of degrees of assisted living are available, and what needs to be done for those who require more assistance than others. So, all in all, I really, really liked it. The only possible downside would be while it's not in Bloomington, it's still a little bit out of my way, but that's just a very minor inconvenience, so I really couldn't think of anything major or negative. They did show me the menus that they had, which I thought was really good, because they have their basic food that they serve, but they also give you options if you don't want that. I got to talk to the cook and he also seemed incredibly knowledgeable and very energetic, so I think they've got a pretty good staff overall from the people I met."

"We cared most about the apartment aspect of Monroe Place, how big the living space was. They just had a awesome one-bedroom set up and it's right down the street from our house, so location-wise, it's awesome. It was very nice. All of the living spaces and common areas were very nice. It's like a very new building. There's a lot of modern amenities and big bathrooms. We're thinking about sending my grandmother there. We love it. The staff during the tour was great. We worked with Megan specifically. She was great at communicating the entire time, and she answered all of our questions. That was the first place visited, so we had a lot of questions by the time we got there and she's just incredible. They have a courtyard, and they're pet-friendly."
