It was comfortable. It has a nursing care component. It was larger with higher storage. It appealed to the community with art exhibits and they had performers who came in for the residents. They also had field trips and the staff was wonderful. I would recommend them to others.

I chose to visit Saint John's on the Lake because it met our retirement objectives. It had all the amenities that I thought we needed in going into assisted living. They had independent living, assisted living and nursing care in the same complex. If my wife and I would move to assisted living, we could do that and still be retained in the complex and the only difference would be the payment for the food. They had two restaurants, the formal and informal dining. The food were made to order. They had spa facilities. The independent living had underground parking. It was a large and nice facility. The apartments were very nice. They had a long-term staff which were very good. They had little turn over. They also had a lot of activities for the residents.

Saint John's Milwaukee, located along Prospect Ave that borders Lake Michigan, is the newest senior residential complex in the city. I have a retired friend that just moved in there back in July when they opened. There is not much else to say besides this place is breathaking!My friend has a south facing apartment on the 11th floor that looks out over the Port of Milwaukee and the downtown marina. All the amenities in the apartment are high-end as well, including a personal balcony, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a beautiful kitchen.Additionally, the location is in a great place. Just 5 minutes from downtown, as well as close to shops, restaurants, and the Lake Michigan beach as well.The staff is friendly and welcoming, and help my friend with whatever he needs. I know this place may seem over the top for an assisted-living-facility, but for the people that can afford it it is more than worth it!
