Assisted Living Communities in Two Harbors, MN

"We always enjoyed visiting Duluth as kids, and our grandmother feels the same way about the region. So on a visit recently, we decided to check out some assisted living options for her in the area. Lakeland Shores is a nice facility with one bedroom private apartments that have living areas and small kitchens. They also have some single bedroom style housing available for those who desire or need it. All of the rooms that we saw were well kept, nicely decorated and clean. The shared areas for socializing are located in convenient areas where all of the residents have access to them. The activities we saw ranged from games to reading and exercising. They regularly take the residents on multiple weekly outings which is important to us. Our grandmother is very social and enjoys getting out as much as possible. The foods offered looked nutritious and the menus were varied. Lots of snacks are offered on a regular basis, and residents may request food at any time they like. It was clear that the residents here were content and well fed - both physically, mentally and spiritually. "

"My mom is now a resident of Aftenro. She has been there for two weeks now. It's a board and care facility. It has been excellent. They have been communicative, very helpful, and attentive to needs. In the age of COVID, I haven't even been in the building, but my mom apparently likes it. She said the food is wonderful. She likes her room. The value for money is reasonable and average."

"We toured. The apartment would have been fine for a couple. What we were looking for was a real apartment. Where we can do cooking and stuff without meals. The staff answered all of our questions and everything. The facility was clean. People we saw there were hanging out, they all seemed to be just fine. I think that because it's assisted living, the facility is just fine for somebody looking for that kind of facility. It would have been nice to have seen more space for people to sit and stuff like that, and to have more of a recreation area, but otherwise, it was fine."

"The facility was really nice. It was a four bedroom two story home with two bathrooms. It had its own laundry area and had a good amount of room for the clients to move around in. It had a good amount of accommodations as well. But the staff could be a hit and miss. Some staff truly cared about their clients and watched out for their health. On other times, some staff members would only view this as "another job". But there was a good guideline set for each worker, and goals to accomplish every day. There was also projects and special occasions where the clients were permitted to go out in the town. It is a good facility that has good intentions. "

"Wonderful place with very kind staff. My mom lived there until she passed this year. The waiting list can be long, but it is worth the wait. The food is good, the residents are nice and the staff goes above and beyond to be helpful. "

"My mother was taken care of in the best way possible. She was respected and cherished by her caregivers. They planned activities that helped her to keep her mind active and other activities to enable her to move her body in an enjoyable and safe manner. Placing her there was the absolute right decision!"

"Edgewood in Hermantown was very nice. The inside part was beautiful. The outdoors was very nice also. The apartment was roomy. The lady that we talked to was very nice. She'd been there a while. She knows the place well and she took us on a nice tour. They have a huge dining room and they have bingo games and stuff in there when there isn't a meal. They have a room where you can take your family if your apartment is too small. They have another room with a pool table, and a little bar area that made it look like a bar, and they had juices there. It was a very nice room for the family and the residents if they wanted to go and just get out of the apartment for a while. If I could move in there tomorrow, I would be there. I loved it."
