✨Story Time: Reunited after decades apart! 🌟 Joyce's heartwarming reunion with her dear friend Kumar brought tears of joy to our eyes at Cedar Lake's Monday Afternoon Tea. 💖 Their friendship, forged in 1986 at a restaurant, stood the test of time and miles. Despite Joyce's ...move to Cedar Lake and Kumar's journey from Sri Lanka, fate intervened to bring them together once more.

🎉 The entire community gathered in excitement, hanging onto every word of their incredible journey. Joyce's smile, radiant as ever, illuminated the room as she and Kumar reminisced about old times. 🌱

Kumar's heartfelt words echoed the sentiment shared by all: "In January 2024, driven by a longing to reconnect, I embarked on a mission to find Joyce. The moment our eyes met, time ceased to exist, and we were transported back to our cherished past. 💫 Her embrace filled me with emotions, reaffirming the strength of our bond."

As stories unfolded, laughter and tears mingled, celebrating Joyce's journey from Iowa to Chicago, leaving behind a legacy of grace and kindness. ✨ Together, we savored every moment, grateful for the memories that knit our hearts together. 💕 #Reunion #FriendshipGoals #joyfultales

Happy Random Kindness Day from our spirited group of seniors! 🌍💖 Our entire building crafted over 400 Shrinky-Dink keychains, each adorned with words of encouragement, and personally delivered them to the amazing teachers and support staff at Jacobs High School. The smiles on their faces were... priceless! Plus, we included a special kindness card with each keychain, spreading even more joy and encouraging them to pass on the kindness. Let’s make the world a kinder place, one keychain at a time! #RandomActOfKindnessDay #SpreadKindness #SeniorCrafts #TheOaksAtAlgonquin

Our senior community just had a riotous time recreating the classic gameshow Match Game! Picture this: Bill, our charming bachelor, fielding questions while our resident panel tried to match his answers – the laughter was contagious! 😂💕

Hear From Residents and Family of The Oaks at Algonquin Senior Living!

We are beginning the process of moving my mother to The Oaks. So far we are very impressed. Shout out to Brian for his patience and knowledge.

My mom was a resident at Oaks at Algonquin with her dog Nina. You can’t imagine how beneficial Nina was to the residents there! They all loved her and she provided the much needed therapy for everyone. Unfortunatelly this is no longer possible as she moved because of David William.She has only let Nina off her leash where there was nobody outside. There was never a risk of her approaching anyone and she never caused any trouble. On the contrary, everyone absolutely loved her.Many people there asked my mom why she was moving and the only answer she gave them was: certain people (like David William) made hers and Nina’s lives incredibly difficult. She was even told that Kim, of the the receptionists there, made up a story that “Nina came viciously to her”. This could never ever happened as my mom was with Nina the whole time and she never saw it and also Nina is extremelly friendly and she loves everyone!Finally, it’s a real shame that such a beautiful place with such wonderful people is managed by someone like David William.

My parents moved into The Oaks in June of 2022. We have been very impressed with the caring and compassionate staff as well as the quality of the food served in their 2 restaurants. Jim and Shelly coordinate many different activities and meaningful events that are especially exceptional and often include family and friends. I often recommend the facility to those looking for a quality retirement community. Our family has been very happy with them!

What a great experience ! It started as we were greeted when we walked in the door. Brian is very knowledgeable about The Oaks. He took us to the desired apts, allowing us to “ get a feel” for the size and style, layout while also answering all questions , ( trust me there were a lot ).As we were looking at the different floor plans, he was also talking and showing us all of the amenities throughout the community. We ended up at the main restaurant, where he invited us to return and enjoy breakfast ,lunch, or dinner, , further getting a feel for what goes on, and resident interaction.After we completed the tour, we asked for a few minutes to sit and chat, but also observe how some of the other residents interact daily. We were very pleased, with the looks, the tour, and also with Brian’s patient and knowledge, and the “No Pressure” attitude.My mom said she felt good about everything!! We agreed to return the next day with my son so he could see and get a feel for the community where she would be staying. He agreed, it was comfortable and the right place for grandma. After having a little discussion, we all agreed and signed the lease.What a wonderful experience for mom, as well as myself, and even my son.Thanks Brian !

I have already told many of my friends about this beautiful new community. The amenities are amazing and yet you feel at home. The management and staff however put it over the top. I have never worked with a more accommodating, professional and caring staff who really do all they can to help and make you feel important and at home.My Dad has been there only a month, but the staff continues to learn his needs and provide him the best possible environment.

An absolutely stunning facility, the layout is outstanding and well thought out, the staff are very friendly. I sampled food made by their chef and it was exquisite. The campus hosts a movie theatre, multiple dining rooms, art activities room, gathering/recreation room, multiple outdoor patios, just too many too list. You have to come and see it for yourself. You will be impressed and blown away by all the amenities The Oaks of Algonquin has to offer. Thank you
