The people that work there, they are extremely happy and friendly and very eager to help make your stay the best possible! The kitchen is very flexible with customizing meals and the food is good. Feels more like a restaurant than commercial food prep. The facility is beautiful... extremely clean and inviting. The activities are plentiful and they listen and respond to new ideas for outings and activities!

PositiveMelody Living Lake in the Hills
mom got a fair sized cut on her leg and nobody seems to know how she got it. have not tried the activities but looks fine. Staff is friendly, they always greet you. They learn who belongs to you very quickly.
★★★★★
PositiveGreat fit
I'd say, we thought it was a good place physically, room sizes, dining area, etc. but more importantly, we liked the staff (director and marketing manager who are no longer there). It felt like the right place. They are helpful. When there are issues, they meet with the family and help resolve them. I'm mostly referring to health issues.
★★★★★
PositiveGreat Facility of Caring Staff
Dad moved into Melody Living last February. While he is very happy with his living space and food quality, it's the staff he is most grateful. They care about his well being giving him the appropriate level of attention.
★★★★★
PositiveExcellent support when it's really needed
Pricing, location, look and feel of the community, services and staff were the main reasons we chose Melody Living. The staff are all very helpful and supportive. They are always willing to communicate as well.
