About Plum Landing Retirement Community
When Plum Landing first opened in 1962 as a non-profit, their goal was simple. Provide a secure, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere for independent adults 55 and over. Our board of directors are local leaders with roots in nearby businesses, with several having family members that call Plum Landing home. Because we are a non-profit, Plum Landing is able to provide the best senior living services while staying affordable. A properly managed trust and donation support allows Plum Landing to give residents and family peace of mind, not just during strong economic times, but during slow financial years that may cause other communities to struggle.

As a healthcare partner to numerous senior living communities, I can confidently say that my tour of Plum Landing was one of the most positive and meaningful I have ever experienced. The sense of community here is truly exceptional, which becomes immediately apparent the moment you interact with their wonderful residents. There is simply no better testament to a community's quality than the smiling faces and heartfelt stories of the people who call it home. If you are exploring independent living for yourself or a loved one, you owe it to yourself to visit Plum Landing. It is an unmatched experience in the best possible way.

The Plum Landings community is so close knit and truly has a family oreinted feeling. Great amenities with a library, lounges, and cafeteria. All rooms have walk in showers and either a balcony or patio for outdoor views. Loved touring with Jen and learning more about the history of this independent living community in Aurora right on the Fox River!
December 2024
My parents lived at Plum Landing for several years and my mother stayed after my father passed away. Living at Plum Landing must be what it feels like to live in a small, friendly town. The staff is wonderful and always happy to help the residents. There is a wide variety of activities to fill the days. The dining room is outstanding with an excellent menu and cheerful staff. Being near a large park on the banks of the Fox River makes it easy to go for walks and get some fresh air. A bonus my parents enjoyed was having great seats for Aurora's Fourth of July fireworks. Highly recommended.

Plum Landing is a wonderful community. Each apartment has a balcony with a beautiful view. The dining room and food are excellent. There are a variety of options for lunch and dinner. It is obvious this not run by some big corporation. The staff is caring and experienced. Many have worked at Plum Landing for decades! My mother has enjoyed 17 years in her apartment. Over the years, we have been able to add services as needed to keep her as independent as possible while keeping the cost of her care exceptionally low compared to an assisted living facility. Through an agency partner, she has help each morning for 30 minutes. We are grateful every day for Plum Landing and the incredible safe, caring, environment that they provide for active seniors in our community.
July 2024
Highly recommend! The Staff: 13 of their staff members have been there for 20+ years. The longevity is absolutely unheard of. The Food: It’s not called Plump Landing for no reason. Truly a fine dining experience. The Views: Any way you slice it, the river & park views from your patio or balcony are beautiful at any time of year. The Vibe: The community is older but has been well maintained and upkept. Family oriented. Residents are referred to by their names, not apartment numbers.

Our mother recently moved into Plum Landing and we can't say enough about how helpful, warm and friendly Don and his staff have been. Mom's apartment is very nice and has a lovely view. The other residents have been welcoming and friendly. She has found the food to be exceptionally good and is impressed with the quality and the variety of what is offered. We are grateful that she is in a lovely, safe spot that offers many fun activities and a chance for new friendships with other active seniors.

I give Plum Landing the highest of recommendations for yourself or your loved one. Don and his staff were always kind, clear and informative. The food was excellent and we were able, as guests, to eat in the dining room with our relative. My special diet was even accommodated. We chose Plum Landing when we needed a safe, secure, kind, clean, affordable housing for a relative, and we found just that at Plum Landing. My relative has always been treated well; I have always observed staff to be friendly and kind. If you are looking for options that accommodate both independent senior living as well as possibilities for outside assisted care to come into the facility, Plum Landing is just the place. An additional bonus is that Plum Landing is on a hill overlooking the Fox River and the grounds are lovely.
March 2020
My wife and I have been residents of Plum Landing for seven years. We have established wonderful relationships with fellow residents, enjoyed outstanding meals and from our private balcony cherished fabulous views and serenity offered from the Fox River. The staff treats us as if we were a member of their family. The place is very affordable, no huge down payment up-front, and our rent has been locked-in since 2013. Plum Landing is a place where you get to know everybody by their first name and is truly an enjoyable place to live!
