Snyder Village a CCRC in Metamora, IL
5.0

They are fantastic, you can tell that this is their calling. The staff even think about the residents in there off time and do things for them to help keep them motivated and engaged. They even went out of the way to try and get my loved one to see my family when we had a family emergency. There are so many great things about them.

The Cottages of New Lenox
4.3

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.
