I love it. It is so clean. It is not only designed perfectly for the older individuals but also the handicap person. The rent is so reasonable.
Everything about Emerald Village has been all good. Depending on the age of the residents we would recommend and refer it to someone 70 and over. The Food offerings very small currently. Maybe Poker instead of bingo with restrictions.
I am currently a resident at Fox River Horizon and things have been great here. The staff are friendly and courteous. They do not provide meals here. They recently redecorated all of the common areas. Based on my experience, I would recommend Fox River Horizon to others.
