Review for The Lakes at Stillwater

The Lakes at Stillwater is a welcoming and beautiful facility. The walking trails around Long Lake are well groomed and used by all - even those in walkers. The receptionist is so friendly and knowledgeable. The dining room food is excellent and there is a cafe that has delicious soups and fresh made to order sandwiches and baked goods and snacks.

My Experience

The staff at The Lakes at Stillwater are all very nice and friendly. The meals are good, but I would like them to be a little bit more restaurant quality and not so family style. But overall, I give The Lakes at Stillwater high marks for being a quality facility.

A life of actively aging

When my father-in-law walked in the front door.... he said he didn't really need to look at any other spaces.... this was where he wanted to live.... other places were not nearly as warm and friendly feeling as this facility.... The residents are active and friendly and enjoy the moving and thinking activities! Staff work especially hard to be sure everyone feels supported.

Happily at home

Excellent, high quality housing and staff - my father-in-law is very happy there. Food, amenities - care - all of it; from [name removed] (in charge of first impressions) to the overall management.... very friendly and accommodating, wanting to make each person's experience individualized to their needs..... wonderful, caring, and qualified beyond words - to take great care of our loved ones!!

Needs better Management

The Director of Nursing cares less about the residents and more about making herself look good. She will lie and tell everyone what they want to hear and then bash families behind closed doors. The facility is gorgeous and the Rock steady boxing program is great! If you don’t need the class I wouldn’t move here you’ll be horribly disappointed.

If you are looking for a beautiful place this is it. If you are looking for the best care for your elderly loved one, look elsewhere.

Very sadden over the whole experience

Covid did create a lot of issues for a lot of people and families, with that being said our loved one moved into the community in January so it was still hot and heavy with restrictions. We were not able to see our loved ones apartment, but we were able to see a model which looked all good and stuff. So we had to go off a floor plan, and we told the community exactly how and where the furniture needed to be, but the apartment was flipped so the furniture did not work out. Also if our loved one needed help moving in we had to use their moving company that was "covid approved" which just meant the were covid trained with protocols which did not make sense to us. If we wanted to come visit we had to be deemed care givers, but they did not take the time to deem us care givers. Our loved one at one point had not be given a shower for 52 days, the director was very dismissive with all of our concerns. Also we had issues with the billing department, when the bills started coming we were getting random charges for things we did not understand. When we brought it to the billing departments attention they had no idea what those charges even were, and later we found out that the billing department had to go back into training because everything was so disorganized.

Best Independent Living That I Evaluated

I have already recommended the community to others. The overall atmosphere and the quality of the administrative and building. The food is average to good. The restaurant isn't open for all meals due to the pandemic. Lunch is the only time and the food is better than when food is delivered to the room. They are making progress.
