Lake Barrington Woods

It is a big adjustment for someone to move into a Senior Living community. The room sizes are nice. It is a long walk for a lot of people to get to the elevators. They have a small patio for outdoor space. My mom has had good and bad experiences with the staff.

Very well done. My parents have been there for over 13 months and no issues. I have been please with how they have handled Covid-19. It is a small community, self-contained. They have good outreach to other community organizations. It is cost-effective. They have a good dining program

A very great community, the staff is amazing and connect with the residents. Everyone is family there. Thank you my mom loves it so much!

Location on busy road a downside for Mom who still drives- hard to get in and out of. Pretty area, but feel that there's probably more services included than she needs. Spoke with a rep there, liked what they do to support new residents, but don't feel this is the right fit for Mom's current needs.

Large place, focused on features vs. the care we needed. Many room options. Didn't explain waiting list process when asked multiple times. Currently upgrading some rooms. Wasn't able to explain how levels of care would cost since they said it would be a-la-cart. The rating really depends upon what is important to the people moving in. The room sizes were very nice.

For Mami & Papi. Beautiful, loved it. Very clean, wide hallways, big bathrooms, bright, cheery, everyone smiling and friendly. Seemed very big. Private pay only and too expensive.

I toured this community for my mom. The staff was nice and the environment [Removed] was clean. The community was clean and I liked the variety on the menu and the healthy meals that would have been offered. We liked the list of activities. We wanted something closer. This community has a lot of offer. We would suggest that families tour this community for care

Caring, knowledgeable staff. Really good activities and programs for residents. Cozy atmosphere throughout and good size apartments. Nice outdoor patio.

My Mother has lived at Lake Barrington Woods for a few years in assisted living. We are very happy with the care she gets, the friends she has made, and the staff is wonderful. They go out of their way to help her and not too long ago we had a party for her there and everyone had so much fun! Every time I visit, everyone, staff and residents, are always smiling. My whole family couldn't be happier, this review was long over due. Thank you LBW for taking good care of my Mom.

The food is not good. It is obvious that a lot of it was previously frozen. The service is terrible. Two hours each meal, because they continue to be short-staffed. Silverware is usually dirty. There is a low morale among residents due to staff not respecting their time. List of my Mother's needs that was agreed upon at the beginning of her stay has not been adhered to. Plan on quitting your day job so you can manage them. I had to tell them to brush her hair, change her underwear, cut her food, allow room service when she doesn't want to go to the dining room, all of which was in the agreement before they decided to breach it. Caretakers are loud in the hallways when they socialize.

My mom liked the facilities very much. The challenge is that they dont have apartments avaialable. Before we make a deposit, we are looking at other options.

This was only marginally better than the last place we were. The food isn't very good, but it's a little better than where we were before. The waitstaff don't bring the right things, their clothes are dirty with food on them. They have nice people, but not what I would expect from a world class establishment.

We are very happy with them so far. We don't have any complaints at this point. It's clean and the staff has been friendly.

Our experience with the Lake Barrington Woods so far has been wonderful. We looked at some other places, but they are just so helpful and they are quick when we ask them to do something and really it has just been a great experience.

Lake Barrington Woods is going really well. I just wish it was closer. The staff is friendly. The facility is clean. Overall it's been a very good experience here.

Any time I go to visit my mother in law a Lake Barrington Woods , all the staff is so friendly and helpful. They encourage her to get involved in the activities, which she has done. I really think the place is wonderful!

We met with [removed] yesterday. She was very helpful and professional. The community one time fee of $4500.00 is a deal breaker. [My loved one] also had concerns because the community is 4 stories with 192 unites in an emergency it might be very difficult to evacuate.

overall the experience with Lake Barrington Woods has been pretty good. The staff has been extremely helpful and friendly and helped to make it a very smooth transition.

We used Lake Barrington for a respite stay. It went well, it was nice, and the staff was friendly. My loved one liked it. We would use them again in the future, it was a good stay.

Nice place but in the middle of no where, not near any high ways. Nothing sparked our interest. Tour guide was late and couldn't stay on task.
