I really like living. I can make my room feel like home. And my family can easily come see me. The staff treat me very well. Lisa and Susan when above and beyond to help me feel like at home.

My husband and I have been residents at Cedarhurst of St. Charles since July of 2025. We just wanted to leave a review so others will know what a wonderful community this is. We were looking for a place that was warm and inviting. A place that had the highest of standards throughout. A place where the staff was not only knowledgeable but also loving, understanding and caring. Here we have an excellent dining room with meals served restaurant style with delicious food. No cooking anymore for me! Our apartment is cleaned once a week by a wonderful house keeping staff. No more cleaning for me! If you’re in the market for a senior/ assisted living community you don’t have to take my word for it. Schedule a tour and see for yourself just how wondering it is!!
