"We've toured the Timbers. The woman there was the most pleasant person that we had seen. The residents were within a community of multiple dwellings, and there were plenty of trees, both evergreens and seasonal trees. There's plenty of room to social..."

"We have chosen Orchard Path. When we first walked in, there was a far window in a huge room that was all glass. It overlooked a lake. We like nature, and it had a walking and biking path around that lake, and I would be capable of walking around that..."

"I liked that Minnehaha Senior Living is in South Minneapolis. That's really all I liked. It was not inviting. The price seemed a lot for what you'd get there. There is just really nothing appealing to me. There was no decoration outside. There was no..."

"I liked The Rivers, but I didn't like the accessibility. I liked things close and they didn't have it. Otherwise, I think that would have been a nice place. The facility was very attractive. They have nice grounds and I have a little dog. They have b..."

"Founders Ridge is a very, very nice facility with lots of activities. The people we met were fantastic. It just seemed like a younger community, and my mother is 90. The people that we met, the people that we walked us around, and the apartments, wer..."
