"It was wonderful. Tawni was our tour guide, and she also had me sit down and have lunch with her. The food's great. The facility is lovely. There's lots of activities for seniors, and there's some nice longevity with the staff. The two bedrooms are spacious, as well as the one bedroom that I looked at. It could absolutely accommodate my parents. I think we're looking at the two bedrooms if we decide to go there. They allow dogs, so it's very pet friendly. It was just a very positive experience. There's a ton of activities. They have different fit classes and clubs that a lot of the seniors actually put on themselves. They have a store, book clubs, knitting clubs, and sports nights. You name it. I think pretty much if the seniors want to do it, they will make it happen there, which is lovely. It seems like they try to ensure that seniors have a greater purpose and have lots to do to keep them active. They have a big dining area. Everything is very social. I think they're going to be doing a renovation in the next couple of years as Tawni said, so it will be even nicer than what I saw, but it was already nice, friendly, and clean."

"I visited Charleston House Assisted Living in Beaver Dam. The tour I did of their assisted living was great, and the place was great; it's just not going to work for my husband. The person who gave the tour was wonderful, and the rooms shown to me were big. They had different activities going on. People were playing cards, and there were those in the other unit who were also busy doing something else."

"The Rivers was friendly, quiet, and spacious. Care was like one-on-one. I had to wait a while because everyone was being attended to. I went at lunchtime. It needed some updates. It was like 70s, 80s style. The rooms were comfortable. The layout was very accessible to the bathrooms from the rooms. It's like family. It's warm."

"I will be moving into The Landing at 818. I liked the central air conditioning and the fact that the apartment had a lot of kitchen cabinets. It had beautiful appliances, a washer and dryer, a big walk-in closet in the bedroom, and free Wi-Fi. They had an exercise room with equipment like a treadmill and a bike. There was a big covered area with a full kitchen where we were planning a potluck so we could get to meet each other. They're going to be putting a griller out there in the summer, too. There was a really nice balcony. They had security cameras inside and outside the building. The management was awesome. They do not serve meals, so you do your own cooking. I'm not excited about the location of this place because one side overlooked a kind of rundown motel and then the front faced the main street. The other side faced a side street with houses right there. But I've got a unit that overlooked the side street and I'm up on the third floor, so I could kind of overlook the city. It's close to shopping areas. It's just a few blocks away from lots of little boutique shops. They also have a locked room for packages that are too big for the mailboxes that a fob key opens. If UPS delivers a package that doesn't fit in your mailbox, they put it in a larger box and then they put the key in your mailbox so that you'll know what box it's on. They also had an intercom system. "

"My sister-in-law is now at Sunwood Apartments. It's clean. They are very personable, and they work well with their clients. They have somebody around there all day, every day. I'm just happy with them all the way around. They have a nice common area, and it's really homey. You feel like you're walking into home there. They have different activities like potluck gatherings. When we were there, there were several people in the commons area working on puzzles. They have a whole list of what activities they have, and they have that posted everywhere. That's important (especially for my sister-in-law) to be able to socialize. Besides the commons area, they have little reading rooms and little visiting rooms (if you don't want to visit with them in their apartment). They have a laundry facility, too. Everything is right there. They would bend over backwards to help you with whatever you need, and so I'm very pleased."

"New Perspective | Sun Prairie was very nice and clean. It was a little bit old, but very warm, homey, and welcoming. The staff member was very welcoming when we first walked through the door. Jake, the director that gave us a tour, was amazing, very personable, and very friendly. He just made my parents feel like they were their top priority. He seemed like a very caring individual that really puts the residents first and their needs first. It was also very nice for my parents to walk into a place where even though some people need some assistance, they did not see a lot of people in wheelchairs. It had a very independent living feeling. There were a lot of activities going on. It was a very large community, with more units and more residents. We actually went upstairs and did a tour of one of the apartments that would be available. It looked peaceful, clean, nice, and welcoming."

"Olympic Village at Sun Prairie is a village of triplexes. Each triplex has its own garage. We like the fact that it has a garage. It's a little village that is not visible from the main road, but it's right next to a whole lot of stores and restaurants. When they give you an apartment that has been used for more than ten years, they put in new appliances, paint everything, and put new flooring in. The staff did a really nice job showing us around and she answered all our questions. We just didn't choose it because they don't have medical assistance on site. Otherwise, we really liked the place. It was well taken care of. The unit we saw was very roomy. They have a community center, a little library, and they do bingo."

"Angell Park was a lovely place. They have a coin-operated laundry but they have laundry hookups in the apartment. You have to get your own washer and dryer. It's in a nice neighborhood. The guy offered that if there's something too high to reach, they prefer that we call them and they'd come up like changing a light bulb or something. He's a very nice man. There's a waiting list. We looked at a couple of rooms and they were very nice. There was a community room. They had card playing night, craft night, movie night, something going on all the time as far as activities. It's very nice and very well-kept. What I liked about it was it had a security door. You had to wave a fob across it and then they had a door that you could go into and then a little waiting area and then they had a security-locked door."

"We like Hyland Campus very much and had put our names on the waiting list. You can start out in the independent living, and if you want to switch to assisted living you don't have to move. You can stay in your independent apartment and they will just charge you an extra fee for assisted living. We really like that idea. The facility was very beautiful and well kept. They offer many activities and shuttles that go where you need to go. The only thing we didn't like was you have to pay extra for underground parking, but I guess that's just typical. They provide all the appliances like the refrigerator and stove, including laundry equipment. They also repaint everything and put in new carpeting when you move in. The staff is very knowledgeable. Hyland Campus is the most reasonably priced among all the places we visited."

"I toured Liberty Square Senior Apartments. The lady was extremely accommodating. We could not look at an apartment just because there was nothing available. But she walked us through the ground floor facility and the common room. She gave us the pricing, and she explained that if we were placed on the waiting list, then they would give us a call and we could come down and take a look at an apartment as it opened up. She was extremely knowledgeable. She had been a general manager there for a long time. They don't offer food, but they have quite a few activities. They have one- and two-bedrooms. We got into the common area where they have a kitchen that if you're having a larger family function, you can reserve it. It was very well maintained and very clean."

"I am in an independent living facility called KindredHearts Senior Living. I've just moved in this February. My experience is wonderful. I'm in one of one-bedroom apartments. Well, it is only a couple of 100 yards to walk to the three-story building where the dining room is, and I could eat three meals a day if I want to, but I only eat a couple of meals a week. They also have a heated pool there that I could use if I want to. Also there is an office in the three-story building that has also a place where music is performed sometimes and other activities. I'm rating KindredHearts the highest rating, that's why I'm choosing to stay here. "

"Oakwood Village-Prairie Ridge is very nice. It's very large. The apartment I looked at was fine. Some of them are older. They have a whole new wing that's newer. Some of them have patios. There is a church, a woodworking shop, a beauty shop, and a huge restaurant. However, I have to pay a lot of money to go there."

"The interior is clean. The person who helped me during my tour was fine, and she mostly explained everything. They provide three meals a day, they have manicures every week, card games almost every day, and other games too. They play different things, and they also have coffee chats where you have coffee and talk to people."
