Fort Armstrong in Rock Island, IL
5.0

I have lived at The Fort Armstrong for almost 5 years and do not regret my choice in moving here. I enjoy the live music and outings we go on.

Luther Knoll in Bettendorf, IA
4.5

This place has been great so far! Mom was so worried about moving to an "old folks home", but after seeing how friendly everyone is and what a nice community they've got going here she loves it! She's only been there a little over a month, but she got birthday cards from so many people in the community, some she hadn't even met yet! They have all sorts of activities, and they do monthly potlucks and some reasonably priced in-house dinners. Tracy, the manager here, is one of the friendliest and most outgoing people I've ever met!

The Taylor Renaissance in Davenport, IA
5.0

The original staff is a 5. The staff has changed and they're in the middle of changing so I can't rate the new people until I get to know them better. It would be nice if they had a loading dock for when people move in but I guess that's the way the building was designed so there's not much you can do about it. My mom has been doing all kinds of stuff. I know they have dinners and get togethers. She's joining in on a lot of that so that's great. It's giving her stuff to do.
