Living in the Cottages at Cedar Crest is embracing the freedom of having your own space, your own routine, and the ability to enjoy retirement on your own terms. But it also means something more.
As a resident of the Cottages, you get priority access to all levels of future care right here on our campus. If your health needs change, you won’t have to worry about searching for the right support or waiting around for it; you’ll have it when you need it.
Here’s what you can look forward to:
Independent Apartments
You may eventually find yourself wanting a cozier living space with a few extra services. And as a cottage resident, you’ll be the first to choose from our one- and two-bedroom Independent Apartments. These open-concept apartments come with all appliances you need, utilities (including cable), indoor access to amenities and dining, and a storage unit. You can also opt for added amenities like underground parking, meal delivery, housekeeping, and support with daily tasks.
Assisted Living
Should daily activities like dressing, bathing, or managing medications become a bit challenging, our Assisted Living apartments are readily available to you. They include meals, laundry, housekeeping, transportation, and engaging group activities in a bright and welcoming environment with beautiful views of the Rock River, along with access to wellness spaces like our courtyard, multipurpose room, and salon.
Memory Care
For those living with Alzheimer’s or other types of dementia, our Memory Care offers personalized care in a calm and secure setting. Residents have private rooms with their own temperature control, chef-prepared meals, and daily activities led by trained dementia specialists. Staff are on-site 24 hours a day, and family support and education are part of our care approach.
Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation
If you ever find yourself in need of more intensive care or therapy, our Health Center is right here on the same campus. Residents benefit from a custom care plan, 24-hour staffing, meals, help with daily routines, and access to physical, occupational, and speech therapy. The atmosphere is welcoming and home-like focused on each person’s overall well-being.
A Smart Decision for Today, and Tomorrow
At the end of the day, things change, and having priority access means having options. It’s keeping control over where and how you age without worrying about waitlists or disruptions. Whatever comes next, Cedar Crest is ready for you.
So while the cottages offer a beautiful and independent lifestyle now, they also offer something even more important: the confidence that you’ll be supported down the road. It’s one of the most important reasons why so many seniors choose Cedar Crest.
