The Best Memory Care Communities in Walworth County, WI

"I toured The Cottages of Fox Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care. I liked it very much. It seemed very homey. The rooms were a little bit bigger, but they were unfurnished. He could bring his little refrigerator and TV. It had a sink and everything in the main room, which was very nice and clean. The bathroom was very clean. They accommodated showers, which is important. It seemed homey, and it was all on one level. They had a couple of different cottages. They all hooked up, although they had a memory unit. The memory one would be where my boyfriend would want to go. Allie showed me the place. She also has contacted me a couple of times afterwards to see if I'm still interested, and I've asked her a few more questions. Everything there was very nice, but it was just the price. They also said they would accommodate his diet since he has a special diet. He can only eat certain foods."

"Mom just got in at Oak Hill Terrace Senior Living, but so far it's favorable. It's clean and well laid out, but on the smaller side from the three other places we looked at. So far, the staff seems very good. They play games, have exercise classes, trivia, and bingo. They go on outings, too."

"I just liked it. It was small and very homey. Rosewood is the most home-like facility I was at. The staff was good. I've seen the dining room. It's just like a home dining room. The facility is actually a house. They only have 8 beds in the entire facility. It is very small and very quaint. I would recommend this place to others. "

"I like the one where my mother is. She is at Arbor Village. Right at the moment, she is still trying to settle in. She is 99-1/2, and she isn't always 100% happy with the food. However, they seem to have quite a few activities. She doesn't participate in all of them, but she does do her morning stretch almost everyday. She does do some of their other activities. It's an adjustment when you go from your home, to the hospital, to the rehab, and then going to assisted living, so I can't blame her for that. However, I would recommend this facility. The owner is right there; his office is right in the facility. They have two other facilities. They have two senior apartment buildings, and they also have a memory unit. The people were very nice, and I like the fact that the owner is right there, and if you have a problem, he is right on it. The facility is very clean too. "

"My mother moved into Our House Senior Living - Whitewater Memory Care. The staff is all very, very nice. It has a warm and comfortable atmosphere. It's quite a small place; I think the maximum number of residents is 20. They do home cooking there. The staff members cook in kind of an open-concept kitchen dining room. Daily, they do activities, like arts and crafts, and bingo."

"I am very impressed with Fairhaven. They seemed to offer everything anybody could want. The place was very clean and well maintained. The people were extremely nice, and the food was very good. They are in the process of renovating, which is very good. They had a myriad of activities. They are right next door to the University in Wisconsin Whitewater and there’s a lot of things going on there for residents. There were regular bingo games and trips. "

"As an independent living resident I have no need for assistance. However I find it very reassuring that laundry, dining, and cleaning services are available when I require them in the future. Staff is warm and friendly, rooms are bright and airy, activities are available and Wal-Mart, WALGREENS, and many eating places are within walking distance. I have been here for a year and find that it meets my needs "

"My grandmother moved in. There are two halls. They all have bedrooms down in each hall. And then there's a main living area and a little dining area, attached. I only interacted with the kitchen staff briefly. The ones with whom I interacted were pretty helpful and answered any questions I had. My grandmother has a decent-sized room. It's not huge by any means. There's a bathroom right off of it, so she doesn't even have to leave the room to go to the bathroom. There are two beds, and then there's a window with a little garden outside the window. She is signed up for a shared room, but there's no one else there at the moment. The food was very kid-friendly. It was chicken tenders cut up, potato salad, and jello."

"I went to Waterford Senior Living about a year ago, before the COVID shutdown. It was clean, it was very well staffed, they had a lot of activities, and the facility had a lot of higher-valued facilities and things for the residents, and that was very nice. That really stood out to me."

"My mom has been in the Elder Care Cottages of Waterford. The reason why I picked this place was, it's smaller, it's privately owned, they have memory care where she's been in, and it's an all woman unit. Since it's a smaller community, I think she gets a little more TLC. It's a transition at first, but she's very happy now. The staff has been amazing with her. She can have therapy, and it's close to where I live. I haven't been in her room because of COVID, but I can visit her in a separate area since she has a roommate. I just walked past her room, and it looks fine to me. I know they have private rooms too, but I chose a semi-private because she doesn't like to be alone. It's very clean and it's a newer building. The dining area is like a common area where they all eat together, which is nice. The food is prepared by the chef, and she has not complained about it, but again, Mom has Alzheimer's, so it's hard to even really know. The staff has been super wonderful and super nice. I haven't had any issues with them. They call me if there's any updates. Even the therapy department staff calls me right away with anything. Every time I'm there, the general staff has been really sweet and nice. They all love my mom, and they all know who she is. They have a fireplace, a big TV, and recliners so they can watch TV in comfort. I've seen them playing bingo, doing exercise classes, arts, and all different kinds of things."

"Huntington Place seemed homey compared to another facility that I have visited. It seemed much nicer because they had fireplaces. The rooms seemed very clean, and the facility seemed very friendly. The facility looked very roomy, well kept, and clean. The staff who gave me the tour was very good. She was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of details of the place. They provide the meals and activities. They had courtyards, two sunrooms, and little patios outside that they could go out to. They had a general gathering area and a separate dining area."

"I toured Archwood Senior Living. It wasn't anything I liked least other than the price, but the place was immaculate. The people were very nice. Carolyn was the person who toured me. They showed me the cafeteria, which serves three meals a day. My boyfriend can only eat certain things, and they would accommodate him because he can't have any vegetables. He said there would be no problem, and they would work around so that he could eat there comfortably and enjoy three meals daily, which was very important. The floor plan was great. It was a big circle, which made it easy for the people because sometimes their memories weren't the best, and I understand that. So, it was easy to access. I saw a couple of wheelchairs going around, and they seemed all happy and content. They could get around in their wheelchair, which made me feel like it was a very comfortable place to live. The room doesn't supply anything, and there is no bed, so you have to supply everything. I wasn't prepared to see that it was empty, but the other room, which my boyfriend could have had, was very nice. You looked out the window and saw kids playing in a play area. It must have been a daycare or something right out of his room. The bathroom looked very well equipped. They said they would help them take showers and stuff like that, and help him get himself dressed."

"Wisconsin Veterans Home - Union Grove was warm and welcoming. It was clean, the grounds were beautiful, and the residents all seemed glad to be there. There were families visiting with pets, and we were looking at the memory care area, and it was really nice. The staff was professional and friendly too. They stopped and talked to other residents, asking how they were doing that day. They weren't just saying, "Hi, how are you doing today?" Instead, it was like, "How was your daughter's birthday party? How was your visit? Is your daughter coming this afternoon?" So, they seemed to really know about their residents. The facility is large with all the artwork and the furnishings. It's just light and bright. All the staff were extremely helpful. Everyone from the groundskeeper to the security at the entrance were helpful and knowledgeable. They were topnotch. The facility was also beautiful and secure. They were very open about having a waiting list too, and they were helpful in filling out the application. It was amazing."
