Residents and their families say:

This community garners high praise for its array of amenities, compassionate and friendly staff, and the overall quality of life it offers to its residents. Many reviewers shared heartwarming stories of their loved ones making friends, engaging in a plethora of activities, and generally being happier and more social. The staff across various departments, from dining to activities, to housekeeping and maintenance, were consistently described as caring, helpful, and attentive to residents' needs. The community's environment is lauded as clean, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated, contributing to a warm and inviting atmosphere. The plethora of activities, including bingo, movie nights, and specialized events like a Sock Hop, ensures there's something for everyone, fostering a vibrant community spirit.

However, some reviews pointed out areas for improvement, such as the communication with certain staff members and the need for a fuller schedule of activities, particularly post-COVID-19 restrictions. The high pricing was a concern for some, and a few reviewers mentioned instances where care services did not meet the expected standards for their loved ones with more intensive needs. Despite these concerns, positive feelings about the community's overall friendliness, its array of activities, safety measures, and dining options strongly resonate through the reviews, showcasing The Timbers of Shorewood as a beloved home for many seniors.
