Amenities include elevators for easy access, laundry rooms for convenience, a fitness center for those wanting to stay active, and lots of common areas meant for socializing or relaxing, and if someone needs to recover from a hospital stay or has special care needs, the community provides good transitional care and access to post-acute services so people can move back into daily life more easily.

The community has a focus on making life easier, safer, and more convenient, and the on-site business center, common areas, and outdoor spaces are all set up to allow seniors to live with as much independence as they wish, and for those who need a little extra, home care and skilled nursing services are available, with a specialized approach to ensure every resident can smoothly transition if their health needs change. The buildings and grounds have been renovated, and if anyone is looking for a spot with a friendly group of neighbors and a chance to stay involved without giving up privacy, Fox River Horizon could offer what they need, since the apartments support an active lifestyle, while the staff and resident programs aim to keep people engaged, supported, and comfortable.

Safe friendly affordable independent community
I live here and have been very happy - staff and residents are friendly and extremely helpful, and the property manager is outstanding. The community is clean, well-maintained, recently redecorated, affordable for a fixed income, and conveniently close to medical care and shopping. There are plenty of activities (bingo, pinochle, billiards, exercise room, BBQs, potlucks, parties) and a shuttle to appointments. My one-bedroom with a balcony is comfortable, though I'd prefer a larger bedroom/kitchen. Note: residents cook their own meals (no dining program), the front door security could be better, and the single elevator can mean long waits. I adjusted well and would highly recommend this safe, independent community.
