Today is my 5th anniversary at Brookdale Hawthorn Lakes Senior Retirement Living in Vernon Hills, Illinois, 4 miles south of Libertyville, where I had lived for the previous almost 43 years. As for Brookdale, time flies when you're havin' fun. One of the biggest positives here, although so far I haven't needed this, is that they will check on you every day if they haven't seen you or heard from you. This I have always covered when I come down to the Front Desk every morning to get the Chicago newspaper that I subscribe to. Two meals a day in our dining room are covered in our rent, which I have always had as the appropriately named Midday Meal (Really dinner #1 of the day, rather than lunch), and then evening dinner. Breakfast I then fix myself, in my apartment. My apartment view includes Little Bear Lake, three evergreen trees, two yellow weeping willows, plus in season the regular trees when they have leaves.Wednesday here is my weekly housekeeping in the apartment, provided by Brookdale, and Thursdays are my weekly laundry appointment in our Brookdale laundry room. Brookdale provides us transportation to and from at least medical appointments. Some doctors come to the Brookdale Clinic, which is nice. Brookdale Country Store, on the first floor, has been cash only for awhile, but they carry some food and other items. The many activities here include Flex Your Brain (trivia competition) on the Mezzanine, and at least one Mezzanine movie every week. Our library, where I am now, has three computers for residents' use. I like living here. Come see me.

Beautiful day for a walk around Little Bear Lake.

Brookdale Hawthorne Lakes is a very nice place to live. My grandma likes it a lot. The atmosphere is very positive and the employees are super helpful. The environment is awesome too. It’s very cozy, there are always fun things for the residents to do and experience. There is also a library!

I'm so glad my grandparents chose Hawthorn Lakes! The staff truly cares for the residents and it shows. There are so many fun activities and the food is great! Highly recommend.

My mother lived at Hawthorn Lakes for more than 3 1-2 years and I continued to be impressed with the personalized care, starting with the fact the every staff member knows every resident by name. Over the years we dealt with most of the services offered. Maintenance requests were responded to in a timely manner, OT-PT-personalized living staff were knowledgeable, patient, and kind. The kitchen staff made a variety of accommodations when needed and with a smile. Any request made to Heather was dealt with promptly, with genuine concern and flexibility. And I cannot say enough about all of the ladies at the front desk. No matter the time of day or night that I walked in I was greeted personally and helped in a friendly, yet professional manner. I slept well at night knowing my mother was in the hands of caring professionals. It is without reservation that I recommend Hawthorn Lakes.

The staff at Brookdale Hawthorn Lakes has been wonderful. Connie is great at the front desk .... always willing to help and she is very knowledgeable! Heather has gone out of her way to help during these trying covid times. She is a wonderful asset to the Brookdale staff! Its been a pleasure to work with her! Also, Marian and Joanne, go above and beyond in food service-dining to accommodate! Our family appreciates all they do for our father who has lived there for 4 years. Thanks so much!

My Father has been a resident of Brookdale for the past four years. Initially, we were concerned as to how he would adjust to senior living at 86 years old. Thankfully, he has done very well and continues to thrive, even in these difficult and challenging times. This is due to the outstanding staff that try to meet his daily needs and do what they can to make him happy. Not an easy task many days!! My Dad is always treated well and very importantly, as an individual. The staff really get to know everyone . We could not have asked for a better outcome nor could we have provided such a positive environment ourselves. Our family is so very grateful for all of the wonderful care that Brookdale has provided. The staff continually amaze us in how they thoughtfully and respectfully handle any issues and-or problems. We would especially like to highlight the good work of Heather Lannon and Connie Willett, two of my Dads favorites who continuously make everyone have a better day. We are so grateful for their kindness and professionalism. Kurt, Ronnie and Josh also deserve a mention. Finally with Covid 19, the staff has worked tirelessly to keep the residents safe and healthy while always communicating well with family members . A BIG thank you to Lynn Woods and everyone who helps make Brookdale Hawthorne Lakes a wonderful home. We appreciate you.

My Dad has been at Brookdale Hawthorn Lakes for 4 1-2 years. The staff there is very experienced and extremely caring! It is an excellent location looking over a lake. They also have done an excellent job at managing the residents during the pandemic. Would highly recommend this location for anyone considering moving their parents.

Amazing people, feels like home.

For the past year I have been visiting Brookdale Hawthorn Lakes with my husband. We were initially invited for lunch and an informative program. At that time I was looking for some program that would benefit my husband who has dementia. The staff was more than helpful. We found a caring, warm and professional group of staff members who were most able to provide information and help even though we did not reside at Brookdale. At the present my husband is still at home with me because it has been working out for now. Since the initial visit we have been included multiple times for meals and programs and have toured the facility. It is clean, well maintained and the residence are well cared for. Visiting Brookdale and participating in their activities always leaves my husband and I very happy. Get to know them. Brookdale is more than buildings on a beautiful lake!

My mom has been living at Brookdale since August and has been very happy there. A cleaning lady comes once a week to clean her apartment. With Covid, meals are delivered to their rooms - they have GREAT food! There is an exercise class to go to right at the facility, tons of books to read from their very own library (as well as movies to watch) or you can check out books from the Vernon Hills library. There is a knitting - crochet group and Bingo! And that is just naming a few of what they have to offer! A parking spot can be purchased in a covered garage as well. Walking around Big Bear Lake is right out the back door when you would like to get some fresh air. All you have to do to take advantage of this is walk out your front door. A great place to live - and for us, only a 15 minute drive from home!

They are so friendly, kind and helpful. They are letting me stay with my dad to help take care of him after his surgery. I cannot say how wonderful they are here.
October 2020
Low Cost movers are great! They were efficient, knowledgeable and able to clear out a studio apartment and make 2 stops all within a short period of time. Plus, as the name implies, their rates are very reasonable.

I like the friendly staff who seem to know our names as soon as we move in. I like the food, I can always find something I like on our extensive menu. Book Club, Art Class, Be Fit Exercise, and Flex Your Brain are groups I enjoy, and there are other activities I plan to try.

Excellent community. We were searching independent living locations near our home for my mother-in-law. When we brought my mother-in-law the Brookdale Hawthorn Lakes for a tour, she was extremely negative about the whole idea. However their sales rep, Sharon Belloff did a fantastic job of changing her negative attitude to a more positive outlook. Although my mother-in-law did pick a different community to live in, I feel that Brookdale has hired an excellent employee, Sharon Belloff, to help families convenience their loved one that communities like Brookdale provide a safe and secure living arrangement.
