Discovery Village Review

It is a very nice place and everyone has been very kind. Within the last year they have had a lot of maintenance issues. Elevators are all going to be replaced at some point bc they keep all going out. They are currently starting to redo the exterior which is closing off the balcony's.

Discovery Village at Dominion

I am going by what my parents stated. I moved them because they didn't like the food. It was canned stuff that was heated up (soups). Eggs were nasty. They did not know how to fry an egg. The carpets were always dirty. Watched a candy wrapper lay in the same spot for weeks. But the worst one is the elevators. They were constantly broke. Would have one working on the opposite side of the facility. So my Mom had a numb foot and would be forced to take the stairs.

Great place, tons of activities, hard to get on our mother's schedule.

Like all facilities like this they do have some opportunities but minor. They do outstanding with the calendar of events. In our search for this place we definitely feel that for the $, amenities, and activities your price point is very competitive.

Review for Discovery Village at Dominion IL

I would say we have peace of mind knowing my mom is in a safe place. We also love the easy access she has to get her physical therapy. She also is able to attend religious services on site and has found a like minded community.

Great Community. Friendly and Caring Staff

I would give it a 5! Discovery Village at Dominion is a wonderful place! I chose it after living in another place! What I like the most about the community is the activities-you can be busy every day if you wish. I also like the Friendliness, the Administration, the Food, and the Cleanliness.

Senior Living the whole family believes in

I particularly enjoy the variety and availability of activities. My son wants me to socialize and the activities help with that. The staff here is amazing. They are friendly and caring and very good at their jobs.

Overall a great place to live

The Discovery Village has been a good fit for my mother - she has been there 2 years in [date removed]. The only reason I gave a 3 rating is because there seems to be a lot of repairs ongoing in the building - from water leaks, to broken elevators...Overall it is a great place to live!

Something is always broken. We moved her there for the pool. It's always closed due to one thing or another. They also had to take the façade off of the entire building and replace it. Dust was everywhere. They never came back through the apartments to clean up the dust. It's in everything. My aunt has to ask 3 and 4 times to have something done in her apartment. The people are very friendly but the staff is not that friendly. Noah at the front desk is wonderful. The food is hit or miss. They have changed it to be more like a restaurant dining experience instead of standing in line My aunt uses the art room but we are having issues there as well as with the pool. I was a state certified guardian so I know what's out there and how much things cost. The independent living is very affordable. She will need assisted living in the next year or two. I'm not sure how that will compare. This place is so busy chasing their tails trying to keep up with repairs that they can't be proactive. They need a game plan. I tried for an entire day to get the A/C filter size for her apartment. I finally got the info, went to Lowe's to get it and I could tell it wasn't the right size. I went to the apartment, with a ladder. They had given me the wrong size. They just need to get their stuff together.

The biggest difference is the intellectual/worldly/experience level of the residents. Very fascinating people who share a lot of common interest with my mom! I would recommend highly!

Everyone at the Discovery Village community is friendly and my mom has made her circle of friends. I also like that she has to get dressed up to go eat dinner. My mother does seem to be happy there.

Nice community overall. There were some issues with the apartment that took months to fix. Also, when asked about the avg monthly electricity cost we were told $50 a month. It's been closer to $150-$200 monthly.

Great people/great place

The staff that I've dealt with has been very helpful - the concierge at the front desk, maintenance team and dining room employees. Quick turn around when she's needed light bulb changed, clogged toilet, etc. The apartments are very spacious with updated appliances and granite countertops. Moms is a two bedroom/two bath with a nice large deck overlooking the courtyard.

Overall a nice community.

I ate breakfast there one time and ask for over easy eggs and they came out well done, bacon was burnt and toast was over toasted. We had cleaning services add and they never the first month so had to call and they did come following month and was supposed to get credit back for first month. I need to check and see if that happened. My dad is very happy there!

Experience at Discovery Village

I am currently a resident at Discovery Village at Dominion IL and everything has been great for me here at this facility so far. The staff at Discovery Village personify empathy, professionalism, and respect. The meals are well-prepared and are delicious. I have had the best BLT in my life and that is not an exaggeration! There are also many amenities that are offered here. The one that I am particularly thankful for is the transportation that they provide to shopping areas and medical appointments. I enjoy myself here and earnestly recommend Discovery Village at Dominion IL to others.

Review for Discovery Village at Dominion IL

I would say move in immediately! It's very lively, the people are clearly happy, it's very elegant, the food is absolutely exquisite, and the whole environment is uplifting and not sad at all. We walked into some places that felt like the therapy scene in one flew over the cuckoo's nest!Also, [name removed], in the Houston area helped me find the place. I felt like I was talking to a long lost friend. This entire thing has been such a great experience!

Review for Discovery Village at Dominion IL

The community is lively, friendly, and likes to do lots of things, your choice. We picked this community, because of the location, and the beautiful lay out of the building. Careful consideration, as the fix and repair group has its own way of doing things. Something they can do, is easily and quickly done. If they do not know how to fix it, they have to contract it out, and it may take after you leave to get it done.

Lovely facility. Most of the residents have lived there four or five years, which is a really good sign. Follow through by the administrative staff needs improvement. All in all, the residents are happy, and social activities are well planned and the facility is clean. I would definitely recommend this community but keep your eyes on Administration and make sure they follow through.

Perfect place for mom and peace of mind for me

The staff are very friendly. The concierge at front desk make you welcome when you check in. I feel like it's a safe environment for my mom. EVERY single person that I have met that lives there have been so nice and friendly. We've eaten there with my mom a couple times and the staff there make me feel like I'm part of a family. They know my mom by name which is very comforting.
