We had a good tour at The Cottages of Fox Lake. I liked that they offered lots of activities for the residents. But the rooms were tiny. They were just way too small. And the rooms didn't look as clean / fresh / new as we preferred.

They are all very friendly. There is a slight room for improvement with the care services, and it would be nice if they cleaned, the individual bathrooms more often. They have a ton of activiites, but my loved one does not participate. I am very happy with the care. I like the small building and cottage approach. It's a smaller number of residents, and it's more personable. It's clean , new and does not smell. I would love to see more fresh veggies, homemade foods, and more nutritional options.

The Cottages of Fox Lake is pretty expensive but it is a very nice community. From what we have heard from our loved one the meals and dining service seems to be quite good.

We really appreciate that when we make suggestions to the staff they actually listen to us and then follow through with the suggestion. We like that our loved one has their own apartment with a little kitchette in ... read more

We are having some issues with the housekeeping in my moms room - that is the only complaint. The people have all been great. I am happy with the staff to residents ratio. It is a darling place and the cost is in line with our budget. It is the best place for my mom and she is thrilled with all of the staff.

We love the community. They were able to take care of my loved one and family. The staff were able to accommodate, and were attentive to our loved one. The communication with the community was wonderful! We were always able to get ahold of staff to answer our questions or concerns about our loved one. We would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The younger family members were able to visit their loved one, as well. The community made sure the entire family felt welcomed.

I would be willing to move into this community. It is very pretty in the spring. I wish that my loved would have been able to enjoy it longer. The staff were very friendly and a lot of them were from an agency but most of them were very friendly and very good at there job there were just a few as always that were not as good as the other workers that were there. This was a very pretty place but unfortunately we were there in the late winter and did not get to see it in the spring.

Think twice about how much care they need and if they are getting adequate hydration.

I would highly recommend this community for your loved one. They have activities like sing a longs bingo, and other things to keep the residents busy in the community. My loved one is very happy there.
