Brown Deer Place

My dad of 94 years old moved into Brown Deer Place last week and he is doing great. He says the residents are much friendlier than his previous community home, which I believe is a direct reflection of the great staff at Brown Deer Place. Happy residents are definitely a true indicator of a caring environment. Valerie and Eddie were ever so helpful in explaining everything to us and helping us to coordinate my dad’s final move. His room is comfortable and bright and the food is outstanding. The building is older than some of the newer homes, but it is well kept up which is yet another positive indicator that we chose the right home for dad. Most importantly though is that it is affordable! Given dad’s fixed income this was a God send. My thanks to Brown Deer Place and their wonderful staff!

FAST FORWARD TO ALMOST A YEAR LATER FEBRUARY 2026 (I guess it is a special "feature" of google / reviews that no matter what your experience at a business is, you can only write / edit one review. hmmmm I wonder if somewhere there's a place to review google reviews! probably NOT!) Based on positive experiences with Brown Deer over the last year or so, my father-in-law just moved in and for a senior, or anyone for that matter, moving can be VERY stressful. Brown Deer did about everything to de-stress the ENTIRE process. Kudos not only to the Brown Deer Staff but its residents as well. My father-in-law lived in a similar facility and I couldn't tell you a single person's name. Just in the moving in, multiple residents, neighbors and staff introduced themselves. The feeling is certainly more homey and welcoming rather than institutional. The family unanimously things the move was a GREAT move! SPRING of 2025 It was my second time visiting. The first was at the Easter Egg Hunt which was amazing. This time it was to deliver flowers. Before I even entered I was greeted by a very tastefully decorated for Fall. So much so, I took the attached photo! Certainly more than a couple of pumpkins and Hobby Lobby scarecrows sitting on a corner! Also this time I had an opportunity to talk with many of the staff including the General Manager and Sales Manager. It was utterly delightful! If I didn’t have places I needed to be I would have stayed a lot longer.

I am resident at Brown Deer and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to live with friendly people and great staff that go above and beyond. The residents are nice and they have lots of fun activities and you get bored its because you want to be board. It is very clean and has a beautiful entrance.
