Canterbury Court

It was comfortable. It has a nursing care component. It was larger with higher storage. It appealed to the community with art exhibits and they had performers who came in for the residents. They also had field trips and the staff was wonderful. I would recommend them to others.

I chose to visit Saint John's on the Lake because it met our retirement objectives. It had all the amenities that I thought we needed in going into assisted living. They had independent living, assisted living and nursing care in the same complex. If my wife and I would move to assisted living, we could do that and still be retained in the complex and the only difference would be the payment for the food. They had two restaurants, the formal and informal dining. The food were made to order. They had spa facilities. The independent living had underground parking. It was a large and nice facility. The apartments were very nice. They had a long-term staff which were very good. They had little turn over. They also had a lot of activities for the residents.

The Canterbury Court assisted living facility looked like a lovely place to live as we arrived. We were checking out places for our aunt to live in the area. The grounds had many places for seniors to enjoy safely with minimal supervision. There were many park-like spaces with large trees and nicely manicured lawns. We really liked the atmosphere of this home-style community. The residents seemed content, well cared for engaged in socializing. The interior design was orderly and easy to navigate. Rooms all had nice views with a soothing décor. The main dining room had a spacious and cheerful decor. The residents were offered healthy, home-style cooked meals in a comfortable restaurant setting. All of the food looked and smelled delicious, as well as prepared healthily. The menus included interesting dishes, as well as the usual American foods. Snacks are offered throughout the day and whenever residents want them. The fitness center includes a variety of exercise classes. The staff supervises use of the equipment for safety, which includes bikes, treadmills and weight training machines. Some residents choose to take daily walks along the lovely garden pathways. The staff sees that the residents are encouraged to exercise daily. The private spaces were all individually decorated with tasteful colors and all had a light, airy and homey feel. The units also had nice views and beautiful furnishings. Bathrooms included all of the necessary safety features. The calendar included many stimulating activities like nature walks, visits to local cultural and eating establishments and other community events. The seniors looked well tended by kind and caring staff. It was clear that everyone at this facility enjoys their work, which contributes to the nice atmosphere and contentment of the residents.

Saint John's Milwaukee, located along Prospect Ave that borders Lake Michigan, is the newest senior residential complex in the city. I have a retired friend that just moved in there back in July when they opened. There is not much else to say besides this place is breathaking!My friend has a south facing apartment on the 11th floor that looks out over the Port of Milwaukee and the downtown marina. All the amenities in the apartment are high-end as well, including a personal balcony, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a beautiful kitchen.Additionally, the location is in a great place. Just 5 minutes from downtown, as well as close to shops, restaurants, and the Lake Michigan beach as well.The staff is friendly and welcoming, and help my friend with whatever he needs. I know this place may seem over the top for an assisted-living-facility, but for the people that can afford it it is more than worth it!
