Great place to live

I really like living at Fox river Horizon. There are plenty of activities, it is a very independent and friendly place. I do wish my bedroom and kitchen were a bit bigger in my apartment.

Welcoming atmosphere

I would tell other families looking that everyone was so friendly from the manager and the property maintenance guy. Made you feel at home from second you got there. I would 1000% recommend Fox River Horizon to anybody looking for senior living.

Great place for Mom

The waiting list can be long at some places. It became available when I was looking.I like it here. People are so kind! I have already referred it. They are nice people always asking how you are doing and one lady actually brought up my mail ! They have a nice exercise room with a couple treadmills and a bike thingy. Bingo on Fridays which is always fun.

Definitely recommended

I am currently a resident at Fox River Horizon and this community is great! My experience here has been great so far. The meals do not apply, we do our own meals here. The cleanliness and friendliness here are great. I would definitely recommend this facility to family and friends.

Happy with my choice

I chose Fox River because of the location, it is close to my work. Also once I got here the building manager was very kind, professional, and helpful. The apartment size is very nice and comfortable for a single person, I also have a balcony. It has been a good experience and I would recommend to others looking.
