We looked at Sterling House of Onalaska, but that was more or a nursing home/assisted living, so that was beyond what my friend needed as this point. It wasn't actually what we were looking for, and they didn't have like a shower or anything like that in the rooms. However, it was more of a family. They had the center kitchen, very nice building, and nice accommodations, and it was furnished for you. You could bring your TV and things like that in, but there was the bed, the chest drawers, and the chair, and the rooms were ready for them. The staff was very friendly.

I was not impressed with Sterling House of Onalaska because it is smaller. The room seemed quite small to me. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was good. It seemed homey, but crowded, and that was the main thing I had against it. While I was there, the residents could help baking things; that was very good ad they keep the residents occupied. They did seem interested in trying to give their residents something to do. They have an activity chart, and that was pretty well filled.
Provider Response
Thank you for visiting and taking the time to share your thoughts about our community. We realize that our suites are smaller than many expect. Most of our residents are downsizing, which can be a difficult transition. They do not as many items in our setting, as we provide many items and activities!
