I moved my Dad from a [community removed] to Boulder Creek Memory Care in Rockford in [date removed].This has been a great move for Dad and me both. The life enrichment program is top notch with lots of activities for residents. [name removed] does a wonderful job and Dad responds well to her.Dad loves the food at Boulder Creek. I have had lunch with him there and thought the food was great. Dad is a fan of soups and it is on the menu every day.My only complaint is the lack of a front door staff person on the weekends. I have rung the bell over and over on weekends and waited up to 15 minutes to be let inside the building. I may ask to go through the necessary background checks so that I can let myself in the building on the weekends.

My father has been residing at Boulder Creek for the past year after experiencing some health challenges. It was a difficult adjustment moving from his home of 50 years to a new place. This said, Boulder Creek has been the perfect place for my dad providing a safe environment for him free of stairs and obstacles that were risks in his former home.Additionally, the Care Team provide very good care to my dad in a compassionate, respectful and patient manner. There is a good mix of male and female residents as well which is nice along with several veterans. The facilities and common areas are clean and well decorated. And there are plenty of activities for residents to take advantage of. It took my father some time to partake in the activities but he seems to be engaging more and more. The social connection via the daily meals in the dining room has been wonderful for my father.I would highly recommend a review of Boulder Creek if you are looking at Assisted Living.

My family recently toured Boulder Creek Assisted Living for a place for my younger sister. She is confined to a wheel chair and needs assistance with daily personal care and other needs. This place was so beautiful compared to the current place she was staying that in my heart I knew that she was not going to be able to afford such a place. However, [name removed] and his team made it happen for [name removed]! She loves Boulder Creek. She has her own room with her own bathroom and this room is bigger than the one that she was sharing at the other place. The meals are good and if it's something she doesn't like or want they make her something else. The staff is great and always available to talk to. We are all very happy with Boulder Creek and the staff!

Our 98 year old mother has lived alone for many years following the death of our father. We finally got her into Assisted Living by insisting that she can no longer live alone. At first, she was very reluctant to move into Boulder Creek but we're very happy that her transition to has been a blessing for her and her sons. The staff at Boulder Creek have been instrumental to her successful transition.

After my mom has lived at Boulder Creek Assisted Living for a year, I can honestly review all aspects. They have great staff and lots of activities. They do a good job of maintaining a positive culture.

Boulder Creek Assisted Living has been wonderful for my mom. She had a stroke at 64 years old and we needed a place for her upon discharge from Mary Free Bed. The staff has been instrumental in her recovery and has helped us navigate life post stroke. We are grateful she is safe and comfortable for as long as she may be there.

I can't say enough good things about Boulder Creek Assisted Living. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth, compassion, and professionalism. The staff goes above and beyond to make residents feel at home, and it's clear that they truly care about every individual. The facility is always clean, beautifully maintained, and filled with a sense of peace and comfort. The activities are thoughtful and engaging, the meals are delicious, and the entire environment promotes dignity, safety, and joy. Knowing our loved one is in such capable, loving hands gives our whole family peace of mind. Boulder Creek has become more than just a care facility — it's a true community. We are so grateful!

Boulder Creek Assisted Living did a great job caring for my aging mother. It was a difficult transition for her to move into a place that was not her own home, the staff were amazing and I would often hear my mom admit that the staff were so nice. We felt she got excellent care by the caring staff. The food was good, the home was kept clean, the staff were always very helpful and kind. While we wished we could have kept my mom in her own home, this was the perfect place when that was not possible any longer.

This community is absolutely charming and so inviting the moment you enter the front doors. The staff and residents greet you with a smile and truly make you feel at home.

Every move that a patient with dementia makes reduces their life by a significant amount. Hospice was invaluable. They have far more knowledge regarding dementia patients than the staff....use them. They need more activities to keep people engaged. They had just hired someone and she was improving the process. Food was just not very good, often cold & dry. Frequently the choices were hard for people to chew.

5 across the board. Mom is happy there. I would definitely tell anyone we are happy with the community and suggest they visit and decide for themselves. Choosing an assisted living facility for a loved one is a personal decision. Mom loved the décor, and that was the reason we chose BC. Turned out to be a great decision for us.

I cannot say enough positive things about Boulder Creek, its staff and facilities. The care for my mother, from the start, has been truly exceptional. Josh, the Executive Director, and his team are responsive, kind, incredibly patient, knowledgeable and willing to do whatever it takes to provide the best care possible for their residents. Our transition to assisted living was medically and logistically complex and the Boulder Creek team made it feel nearly seamless. Kim, who initially took my husband and I on a tour and explained all the intricate steps to establishing residency, was a wealth of information. Brian, the facilities superstar, helped make mom's apartment feel like home by helping with bird feeders, hanging and programming the TV, and so much more. We are incredibly grateful to have mom in a safe, caring community with phenomenal caregivers. Their partner organizations we've encountered so far have also been fabulous (HomeMD and CorsoCare). Every person demonstrates genuine care about mom and treats her with dignity, love, and respect. I wish I could name all of the wonderful people we've met, but there are simply too many. I would recommend Boulder Creek in a heartbeat to anyone looking for assisted living or memory care for their loved one.

Boulder Creek is the perfect place for our mother. The staff is helpful, caring and efficient. There is an obvious community feel as the residents are out and about engaging in activities whenever we come to visit. The warmth of the decor and the staff make it so welcoming.
