Independent Living Communities in De Pere, WI

"I moved into Golden Venture Apartments. The price and the location were right, so I grabbed it as soon as I could. I'm just as happy as I can be here. I am in an efficiency apartment, which is quite small. But as long as I can get things in here and still live, that's all that matters to me. Everything is very well arranged, and everything works. I keep myself busy by doing crafts. They play bingo. We make our own food. This is a security-locked building, so we don't have to worry about people coming in and disturbing us, and that's good. I've had a lot of help from these people. They could use better cleanliness. Everything in this apartment is included, like heat, water, utilities, and cable. They go according to your income. I'm very happy."

"Primrose Retirement Community of Appleton was real nice. They had two-bedrooms and everything was new and in good shape. The layout was OK too. They had some washers and dryers. The only thing that I thought that they were missing was the coat closet and a pantry room. We only talked to the chef and never got to taste the food."

"The tour at Aspire Senior Living was very good, very thorough, professional. The accommodations, they're like apartments. They had movie nights. I think they have billiards, they have a pool, a cafe, and restaurants. They had different social activities that went on like playing cards or bingo, different things like that. I think it was a much smaller facility, and then also the pricing was a drawback."

"Renaissance was a very nice facility, the staff was very friendly. I can't say anything bad about any of that. I just felt it was too large for my uncle and aunt to be comfortable in. I thought my aunt and uncle would be confused as to where to go because they have to do a little bit of touring there to get from point A to point B. That's one thing that I think would have overwhelmed them. "

"My mother will be moving into Ridgeview Highlands. They're professional, caring, knowledgeable, and very efficient. They have multiple buildings, with three floors in each building. There is a gathering room, a little store, meeting rooms, and a room where you can purchase snacks."

"Eagle Point Senior Living was gorgeous, and they were very accommodating, and they had numerous services. It was an awesome place. It had the scenic views of the river. It was almost like too luxurious for our father, that's why we ended up not staying there. The apartment was very spacious and very well thought out. It was great. You couldn't have asked for anything more. It was a two-bedroom, two-bath, and it had its own stackable washer and dryer, full kitchen, living room, and balcony. It was super nice. Everything looked very well maintained and everything was clean. It looked like they took care of the place quite well. They had a workout facility and a place to get your haircut, they had different classes available, like movement type classes, and they had this gorgeous large TV room where they could have a movie night. They had everything imaginable. It was definitely a resort type of facility."

"Appleton Retirement Community was recommended through a friend who had their mother staying there. We have chosen this community for my mom because they have the most activities compared to the other places. The staff are always there to help whenever my mom presses her button. They're very helpful. They have a couple movie nights a week. They have bus trips to local parks. They have community bands that come and play at the center. They have multiple different areas for cards, bingo, and virtual bowling. They have amenities like a salon, a theater, game rooms, and card rooms."
