What makes The Kenwood such a unique and welcoming place are the people, many of whom have worked there for 10–22 years. It says a lot about the leadership of an organization to sustain that level of dedication. My mom lived at The Kenwood for 7.5 years, from 2015–2023. Although she initially resisted the idea of moving into an apartment, she came to love it, largely because everyone—resident director, nursing staff, activities director, dining room staff, facilities manager, etc.—treated her with warmth, respect, patience, and good humor. I deeply appreciated the staff's responsiveness and open communication, especially during COVID and also as my mom's health began to decline. The Kenwood may not have an Instagram-worthy lobby, but it's got what no interior designer can give you: a vibrant, caring community. Two other perks for my mom: it's just a block from Thomas Lowry Park and the seven pools, and a short walk to Walker Art Center, the Sculpture Garden, and Loring Park.

I liked The Kenwood. I've been there to see my friend. She invited us for lunch one day and we sort of did a bit of a tour around. It sounds very nice, and when I talked to her many times, she's quite happy there. They're set up -- she rents her apartment, which is a nice apartment. She can go down to two different meals in the dining room and they have a menu. They also have a lot of events and they take the residents to cultural events, which is very nice. She also has a car and a garage space. The thing I dislike most about it probably for me would be the location because it's a little bit far from the lake. She's quite happy with the people she meets there and the food. She's been there for two years now.

The personnel at The Kenwood were incredibly gracious, attentive, answered our questions directly, and if they didn't have the information, they went and got the information. They were absolutely superb in terms of the way they dealt with us. My mother was in crisis at the time. She was especially vulnerable to irritation and upset, and they were incredibly sophisticated in terms of how they handled her; they did a very good job. She is renting a one-bedroom with a full bathroom, a living room, and a small kitchen. It is arranged in a very convenient manner and feels very spacious because of the large windows. It also has a wonderful view of the city. They have a dining room and the food is excellent. There are lots of activities for seniors.

I've had a friend at The Kenwood. She was in a two-bedroom and she started out as independent then she became more ill, but she didn't ever move. It's in the general neighborhood area of Minneapolis that I'm familiar with and not far from my daughter. My friend liked it very much and there were a lot of interesting programs to attend and lectures. They had a very pleasant dining room and fairly good food. They would bring in speakers. Their population was above average educationally, and they did the programming appropriately. Her apartment was nice.

Kenwood is an old facility, but everything is in really good condition. The staff is really helpful, too. The design of the building is good. It's tall -- 15 stories -- so none of the halls are very long. The food was nice. We were invited to come for a happy hour, and we got to meet some of the residents which I thought was a nice thing. If they're looking for a place that's close by with cultural venues and residents who are very well educated, it's a good choice.
