The Boulevard of St. Charles is an excellent place. I really love the staff, they go out of their way to help make this transition as smooth as possible. My mother in law has been making new friends and been taking advantage of the many many activities. We really do believe this place is the best choice for her and we feel extremely confident that she will be very happy there for many years to come. : )

My uncle lives here and has for several years now. He is 89 and absolutely loves it!! the staff is wonderful, caring and friendly. He still lives in his own little studio and has his independence. He loves the food and the friends he has made keeps him social. Highly recommend this place. The cost is very reasonable compared to other places.

we have started the process for them to evaluate mom tomorrow for possible admission there. It has smaller rooms, but otherwise very comparable with our other choice.

[Name removed] was very outgoing and friendly, helpful, introduced us to lots of staff. They pay their staff well. What impressed me was while touring, one of the staff's toddler came waddling along exploring. I asked if staff was allowed to bring their children to work, Mom said no, but that her husband was on the night shift and brings the daughter along to switch parenting duties. The fact that the couple worked at the same place meant that they were paid well, or somewhat well! The residents were interesting and the place had lots of perks, but not as many as Story Point. This place was limited in room choices but was much closer to town.

Rooms are clean and bright, love the fact it has a full kitchen with open floor plan. Price includes 3 meals/day. Washer/dryer in apartment as well as laundry room close. Has a swimming pool or hot tub (which makes my husband happy). [name removed] was very friendly and helpful and answered all our questions. Most definitely fits our needs.

Love this place and, if they have a studio apartment available in March, I will definitely take it.

[Removed] was very helpful and personable. She was thoughtful enough to give us a small, appropriate gift. The facility was clean and welcoming, and the rates seem more or less in line with other comparable facilities. We enjoyed the visit, but are not ready to commit to anyone just yet.

Everything about The Parkway is the best we have been able to find. The people there are extremely helpful and accommodating, the community is clean, and they have excellent food. They have chefs, so the residents can pretty much eat whatever they wish whenever they'd like. They also have a lot of activities. Each day, there are things going on for the residents, so it seems like a very lively community. The Parkway is really the best place we've seen, and I would absolutely recommend it to other families.

We toured at The Boulevard, and my loved one liked it immediately. It's excellent. The community is brand new, and the people there are really nice. I love that the community is so clean and that they have a chef there, so the food is always good. My loved one enjoys the happy hour they have on Fridays, and she's excited to begin her new knitting group in January.

I’m very happy with this place and the care they provide. The flu has been going around and once a few residents got it, the facility shut down the dining area and started serving the food to the residents’ rooms to keep from everyone congregating and getting sick. I think that was a good decision on their part. There were a few times where I wasn’t able to get in touch with my Mom and the director, [Removed], personally went to her room to check on her. To me, that says a lot. Everybody works together to make sure everything runs efficiently. Every member of staff, from the housekeepers to the director, is very involved. They aren’t just hired help, they’re like family. Part of the rent the residents pay includes a bus that will take everyone into town for shopping or to doctors’ appointments. It really helps everyone continue to feel independent. Housekeeping comes by and does a light cleaning once a week and a heavier cleaning every 2 weeks, including removing and washing the linens and sheets and then placing them back on the bed. The facility does some really great things for new residents as well. They’ll assign 2 people (typically a husband and wife) to the new resident that act as ambassadors. And for the first month, anyone in the family can eat with the resident for free, and then the rest of the time it’s $6. They really encourage family members to come and have a meal with their loved ones so they can feel comfortable about them being there. The dining area looks like a restaurant, not like a nursing home, and they serve the food like a restaurant as well, with a wait staff and everything. If the staff doesn’t know the answer to something, they’ll find out for you instead of just passing you around. Anything I’ve asked, they’ve jumped right on it. To live here, the residents have to be pretty independent and are responsible for remembering to take their medications (I set up a system of alarms on my Mom’s phone so she wouldn’t forget). The rent also includes emergency buttons that contact members of staff (if an ambulance isn’t needed), which saves on medical bills. They’re very accommodating and I highly recommend them.

I helped my friend find this community and it is such a good fit for her. The staff is great we love them. The atmosphere is warm and homey feeling. The food is great. And they will always have snacks out if they want to snack. They go into her apartment 1x weekly to clean up and it never smells in this community. She enjoys the daily activities like bingo or a bus ride. She gets her hair done in the salon there. There is a grill outside if they want to use it. The apartments are spacious and they have little balconies. I would recommend this to people.

After speaking with [Removed] we were able to find Mallard Point in Cedar Falls, IA. Our Mom loves her new home. She has 3 nutritious meals a day and is interacting with the other residents there. The staff is wonderful! It has made Mom's transition from her home of 60 years to a new chapter in her life and new friends.

Journey has been a great experience for us so far. I like that it’s only six blocks from home, so I’m able to visit often. I also love the staff there. There is a 4 to 1 resident to caregiver ratio, so they are able to spend a lot of time with the residents. They are so kind, and they are always willing and ready to help. It’s a brand new facility, one of about five new ones built in our area in the past year, but I would definitely recommend it to others.

I have lived in the Gardens for about two months now, and I knew right away it was the place for me. I have the freedom here to do as I wish, be independent, but I also have the ability to have a lot more done for me. I feel much more relaxed, I have much less to worry about, and I feel safe here. Right away, the staff responded to my needs and were quite pleasant. I’m also quite pleased with the food and the many options they offer. I also appreciate that the chef has a meeting once a month, which the residents can attend, and he listens to any suggestions that we might have. So far, he seems to take the suggestions very well, and works hard to make the changes. I am so glad that I chose to live here, and I would absolutely recommend The Gardens to others.

wifi in common areas open seating in dining room

My loved one is still adjusting to living at this community. The staff have been helpful and friendly. They offer a lot of activities. The food is good and they cook to order from a menu. This is a new gorgeous community and I would recommend it.

This is a very nice community, everyone from the staff to the residents is very open and friendly. My wife likes her room and I like seeing the progress she has made being here. She likes taking part in the activities. I even joined her in the dining room one evening where we enjoyed visiting with the other residents during dinner and the food was very good. there is a nice courtyard out back and a small swimming pool as well.

I was impressed when I had my tour and I asked a friend who is a nurse and she was impressed with the staff level of care, they seemed experienced. I am happy with the care they provide for my husband and I think they are doing a great job. They are close to me which is easy for me to get to. They offer activities but he does not participate. I had lunch with him and the spaghetti and meatballs were good. They offer different choices of meals with alternatives if it is needed.

This is a fabulous community, and I'am very pleased with my move here. Everything has worked out very well, and I'am satisfied with everything they have done for me. I have not met one staff member who isn't amazing. They are very kind, and have been very helpful whenever needed. They do a great job with the cleanliness around the community, everything always looks great. The meals are very good, and there are lovely activities, and outings available. This is a community I would recommend to anybody, it is a wonderful place to live.
