Overview of Lake Oaks Senior Apartment Homes

Independent living is what Lake Oaks Senior Apartment Homes offers in Racine, WI. Each resident has a private apartment and community services, though nobody provides daily care. That suits an older adult who wants their own place and can handle daily care alone.

Floor plans are one-bedroom or two-bedroom. One bedroom serves a single person, and two bedrooms fit a pair moving in together or someone with a companion. Pets can move in too.

Towerview is the neighborhood, and a 34 from Walk Score makes it car-dependent, so non-drivers will need transportation for routine errands.

Residents can exercise at the on-site fitness center. Meals outdoors can happen at the BBQ and picnic area, and the clubhouse is a shared place to gather.
