Staff is very knowledgeable, my room was always clean, good is good, everyone is very helpful. i would highly recommend Heritage Village.

The Cottages of New Lenox

Yes, we would recommend. Quality of care seems good and better than previous experience. However they lack organization with clothes and bed linens. They often get mixed up between residents.

I was looking for a place for my uncle. I was referred to Asbury from his doctor. [Name removed] called me right away after I left a message there and met with me that evening. My wife and I took a tour of the place and decided on it right away. [Name removed] and the team there were very helpful and made this whole process very easy.
