The Landings Senior Living in Batavia, IL
4.3

The staff is extremely friendly. There lots of activities and outings. Beautiful campus and location!

The Gardens of Waterford in Aurora, IL
4.0

I have lived here for 5+ years. The food is by far better than other places I've been. Staff are friendly and very helpful. This is Alden's main campus and the grounds are beautiful. Festive holiday decorations make this a very homey atmosphere. I call this "home".

The Reserve of Geneva
5.0

Dad lived here and had many wonderful friends! I am so thankful for the wonderful people he met and experiences he had here. The management helped to get a new occupant into his home quicker than expected (probably because he had granite counter-tops) and we got his entrance fee returned which really helped with other expenses. A lot of his friends had lived there 10 years and he wanted to stay, but we are glad to have him closer to us. We really miss Geneva but will keep in touch!
