The Lakes and Superior at Waterford review
Care services do not apply as we are in an independent living duplex and we have not yet dined on the campus. Due to Covid concerns, the dining room opened to independent living guests last week. We are very pleased with our Superior/Lakes duplex on the Alden of Waterford campus. The staff is very pleasant and always responsive to pleasant and accommodating. The staff is very pleasant and always responsive to the needs of residents. Any concerns are immediately addressed. [name removed] is an excellent Property Manager! Our unit is beautiful , the campus grounds are exquisite, and many social activities allow us to meet other residents. My husband and I shopped extensively for a Continuous Care Community and found Aldens of Waterford to be superior to every other community that we visited. Aldens of Waterford ... safety and peace of mind in a a beautiful natural setting.

Perfect Place for Me
I have been here less a year and this place is perfect for me. I love my duplex on the lake-the view is peaceful and beautiful and with all the windows there's tons of light. The friendly environment here allows me to participate as much or as little as I want and without pressure. The neighbors are great and the staff are helpful and responsive. I feel fortunate to be here!

Smooth and Seamless
My mother and 2 aunts purchased an attached home at the Lakes at Waterford Aurora, IL. Ruth who assisted myself and the aforementioned ladies in the process could not have been anymore professional & helpful. She was very knowledgeable about all the contractual & financial aspects and delivered on any promises that she made. My mother and aunts are extremely happy in their new home and I would certainly recommend The Lakes at Waterford Aurora, IL to anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions
about The Lakes and Superior at Waterford

A Place for Mom has scored The Lakes and Superior at Waterford 9.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
