Recent reviews of Independent Living in Eau Claire, WI
4.9 / 5.0

The friendliness of the staff members there gets a 5+. I would highly recommend Oak Gardens Place. The smaller community of residents made our mother feel at ease and safe. The staff genuinely care about their residents. Communication was great with us (the family).

5 / 5.0

Recently my mother passed away. Her time at Heatherwood was only 4 months. During her stay her care was exceptional. The staff went over and above in her care. The management were so easy to work with. They made us all feel "at home." Would definitely recommend.

5 / 5.0

A place for mom was the best thing ever & we love comforts of home
