Wesley Willows had arrangements as far as the meals, etc., that I thought would work out best for us. We're going because it's independent, and we'll probably be independent for a couple more years. They have very good assisted living and independent living arrangements, and they go from one to the other seamlessly. The food looked pretty good. We got the biggest room they had. The person during the tour was very articulate, had all the answers, and some cases, she even helped us with the questions, and she did a very good job. She's been with the company for a few years, and it seems to work out for her and the company. Of all the ones we looked at, they're probably the top of the line. They've got very structured activities. I looked at their schedule, and they have more activities than we'll ever use. There are some areas that they can work on, and we talked about it. The staff that we met was somewhat limited. I was amazed at a facility that large, that we didn't see more people. They've got a vacant place that we want to keep, but we can't move until after the 1st of the year.

I can't think of any. The staff I spoke with when I was exploring the option of moving here provided all the information I needed to make my decision. They were very supportive as my husband was very ill and eventually passed away before I could make the decision for both of us to move. As soon as I was able to continue the process they were most helpful. I couldn't move til summer when my kids could come and help and they accommodated that. Everyone was so helpful with the redecorating and purchasing appliances.

Wesley Willows is a beautiful place. It's a large, self-contained community, and there are a lot of amenities. It's a little pricey, but not that expensive. They have quite a few amenities, a computer center, a couple of places to eat, an underground garage, and the phone and electricity are included. The rooms were nice. They have apartments and individual condos. The person who gave the tour was also good. They had a woodworking shop, transportation anywhere in Rockford, and they are providing services within the community.

Everything at Wesley Willows was beautiful and grand. They had a swimming pool, workout areas, and good food. They wanted a quarter million dollars to buy a spot. They had duplexes, suites, little rooms, and apartments.

The first facility we visited was Wesley Willow. They have everything. They have a section of the latest area now. It’s very nice and larger but much more expensive. It is geared to people who want to live a life yet without the problem of taking care of their home. Everything is done for you. They take good care of you until you’re gone. They have three pools and on hand people that would help you with exercise equipment. They were very very nice and very helpful, easy to talk to.
