Families consistently praise the care team's warmth and responsiveness. Aides like Jennifer, Amber, and Alexis are repeatedly noted for their gentle, attentive approach and quick response to call bells. One family wrote that staff "never once made my father feel like a burden." Staff longevity stands out, families note that caregivers have worked there longer than other facilities have existed. The atmosphere is described as welcoming and genuinely caring, with activities and programming managed by a dedicated lifestyle director.

We had a wonderful mens breakfast. It was a special time to get better acquainted with the guys. The culinary staff prepared a great breakfast. The activities at Lake Forest Village allow me to chose what is best for me and my wife. We've been here 11 months and are blessed to call this "our home".

I had the opportunity to tour Lake Forest Village today and learn more about the Independent Living community with Sandy Rasberry. What a lovely community! From the moment I arrived, it was clear that residents genuinely enjoy living here. I met several residents spending time together in the coffee room, visiting with friends, and enjoying the fresh air while relaxing on the outdoor benches. What stood out most was Sandy's interaction with the residents. She took the time to greet each person warmly, and it was evident how much they appreciate her kindness. The sense of connection and community was apparent throughout my visit. The apartments are spacious, comfortable, and welcoming, creating an environment that feels like home. As someone who helps seniors and their families navigate senior living options, I can see why this community is such a great fit for many older adults!

I’m very happy about the activities there. You have outstanding activity director there. Victoria Freeman has a very creative mind. She has to engage everyone keeping in mind what kind of art and activities they enjoy. The group activity such as setting up a kind of car wash and once they go thru it combined with washing wheelchairs was brilliant! Keep up the outstanding work Mrs. Freeman. They’re lucky to have such a creative mind there!
