Outstanding value. Great staff. Well lit. Smells good. Very well maintained. I would absolutely recommend to others. It took my hubby about 2 weeks to get adjusted. He misses me and our life together, but loves the way he is treated by the staff.

We moved our mom into the Woodlake about 6 months ago and she loves it. Everyone is so kind and helpful, she loves all of the activities. We enjoy all of the holiday activities for families to join in.

The activities at The Woodlake Senior Living are truly exceptional! They offer such a wide variety of programs that there’s always something fun, engaging, and meaningful happening. From fitness classes and art workshops to group outings and game nights, the team does an amazing job creating opportunities for residents to stay active, social, and happy. My loved one looks forward to the daily schedule and has rediscovered hobbies they hadn’t done in years. The staff’s enthusiasm and dedication to making every event enjoyable really shine through. It’s heartwarming to see residents smiling, laughing, and connecting with one another. If you’re looking for a senior living community that prioritizes not just care but also quality of life, The Woodlake is the perfect choice. Their activities program is second to none!

The Woodlake has exceeded all of our expectations for independent living! From the moment we toured the community, we knew it was the perfect place. The apartments are beautifully designed, spacious, and equipped with everything needed to feel comfortable and at home. The amenities are outstanding—there’s always something to do, whether it’s fitness classes, social events, or just relaxing in the lovely common areas. The dining options are fantastic, offering delicious and healthy meals that feel like dining at a fine restaurant. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always available to help if needed, which provides a wonderful sense of security. My loved one has made so many new friends and enjoys the vibrant, active lifestyle The Woodlake offers. If you’re looking for a welcoming and enriching independent living community, The Woodlake is the place to be!

The staff is very attentive, friendly and patient. They have multiple activities each day for participating and there are some tailored to the different level of ability. They bring in outside guest for things like music therapy and animal support. They get 3 well prepared meals and multiple snack throughout the day. The staff goes over and beyond to know each resident and their family. The cost for care is reasonable and in line with the care they provide. They also have programs for care that are reasonable and just help make life easier for the resident and family members. They have an in house support group that meets for caregivers as well. Overall I would recommend this lovely group.

My main contact at The Woodlake was a tremendous help and support even before I was truly interested in this property. When I contacted her a 2nd time to pursue this choice she bent over backwards to assist. My daughter and I moved my sister and her husband into The Woodlake last week. And everyone, staff and residents alike were kind, friendly and interesting. We enjoyed visiting with the residents and had a hard time pulling ourselves away to return to our home. The food is very good. The interior of the building is beautiful and full of sunlight. And there are numerous activities to pique the interest of the residents. But back to the staff. They were awesome. So helpful and gracious. Cant thank them enough.

As far as my evaluation of The Laurel, she received excellent care and I would recommend their memory care facility. The staff members are well trained and they care deeply for their patients. They went above and beyond to care for [name removed]. Near the end, the staff worked in tandem with hospice care to keep [name removed] comfortable and reassure my family during a very difficult time.

It's been a few years since I had toured the community, but since my last tour I am very impressed with the new Management team and department heads of the community. Several different layouts to select from for your loved one with two beautiful courtyards residents have access to anytime. I am very impressed with the recent changes and am excited to recommend The Rawlin at Riverbend Memory Care to Family and Friends in need of senior living.

I love everything about The Laurel at Vernon Hills IL. The staff is the best. My mother had wonderful care there. I loved the first phone call with Carol. She was so efficient, caring, down to earth and accommodating. When I first met with her, my heart melted when she told me my mom would be loved there. So true. I loved that whenever I visited her, she would say how lucky she was to live there because everyone was so nice. And we have [name removed] , Executive Director, to thank for hiring only the best people. I am grateful for all of the caregivers and everything that the staff did for her up until her final moments.

The Rawlin at Riverbend Memory care provides a lot of daily activities for residents. The staff contacts family to report out-of-the-norm behavior of the resident. Staff is friendly and supportive of the residents and family is always welcome to visit. Staff appears to be well trained in working with folks who have cognitive deficits and memory issues.

I’ve been living at THE WOODLAKE for a little over three years. Time has flown! It took a little adjusting, getting used to not being on my own. I have found that I can spend as much time by myself as I want or I can be as social as I want. Everyone finds the friends they wanna hang out with. It’s like living in a very spacious house that is always clean and smells good! Not having to buy groceries is a plus. And so is having meals that are very good and nutritious that are prepared by someone else! We have a great Activities Director Who keeps us on our toes. Everyone is friendly and helpful.

The Woodlake celebrated Mother's Day early with a festive brunch on Thursday. A bounteous buffet of entrées and desserts to please everyone’s taste, served in a dining room especially decorated for the day. Great food, Good neighborly conversations. A lovely and thoughtful prelude to Mother’s Day. Chef [name removed] and the staff outdid themselves. It was indeed a most enjoyable event.

As an employee of The Woodlake, I enjoy coming to work everyday. Although the building is beautiful, what makes it special are the people. To see so many happy residants is amazing. As i write this their is a Mothers Day brunch happening. To hear the joy and laughter from my office inspires me. I am grateful to be a part of this stage of life and helping people live their best life now.

It can be very difficult to transition from living at home to assisted living. The Staff at The Woodlake were extremely helpful and understanding. They helped make our Dad's move from independent living to assisted care. The Woodlake has a family-oriented atmosphere with a real sense of community. My father was very excited about moving in after we first toured the property. He couldn't wait to meet new friends and engage in activities! It was a great experience from start to finish. We would definitely refer friends and family to this new home! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We feel very comfortable leaving our Dad in their care. :)

I moved my mother in about a month ago, and although the building and staff were very nice, I was still skeptical after terrible experiences with my dad at another community. I'm so pleased to say that she loves her new home! She is participating in activities that I never thought she would go near. Thank you, [name removed]. [names removed] moved us in and were a wonderful help. Thank you, [name removed], for your patience and kindness. The Woodlake is truly a great place to live.

My loved one was previously a resident at The Woodlake and the experience was great! The facility itself was good and the people working there/staff were also very good. Based on our experience, I would recommend The Woodlake to others.

My experience with The Woodlake has been great! We chose this facility due to the cleanliness, and positive attitude towards residents and the family. The staff are very supportive and helpful with the emotional aspect of having my mother in Memory Care.

The facility is very clean and well maintained. They have 3 meals and 2 snacks per day. Plenty of activities like Bingo, word finding games etc. They even went on the facility's bus to the pumpkin patch and to see Christmas lights. All the residents are clean and well groomed. They even take the time to put my LO in matching clothes instead of just any old thing in the closet.

I was so happy with the Laurel! Everyone who worked there was involved and communicative. My Mom was always looked out for by many people on the staff. I was so grateful for her to have spent her last few months there

If we could give them a 10 we definitely would! Sonnet Hill community is amazing! They are professional and very caring. The facility is beautiful and very comfortable . We are very pleased with this community.
