If you have a parent, in law, any elderly person that you love and care for- I suggest that you stay away from Edencrest in Beaverdale. I can only speak to the memory care division. Supposedly patients are looked at every hour.. This is not done. A memory care patient -that cannot walk - will indeed try to get up and walk, fall, and off to the hospital they go. Because they aren’t looked at on a regular basis, they sit in there own waste and get urinary tract infections. With that come hallucinations and off to the hospital we go again. From the very beginning, they promise a free month’s rent and all this wonderful care. My mother has been gone for going on two years and we just received a bill for a month’s rent. We had never received our free months rent and yet the bill came. How shameless is that going on two years past my mother‘s death. The person at the front/gatekeeper is completely ruthless. A good example of this is she insisted she had sent us a bill every month since my mother‘s passing and that is simply not accurate. My last bill received was a year and a half ago. Shame on Edencrest in Beaverdale for their treatment of their patients in memory care. Shame on Edencrest for their treatment of family after the passing of a loved one. Now if you’re looking to get rid of a loved one going into memory care, Edencrest is for you - otherwise stay away!

I toured Edencrest at Beaverdale. They had a nice activity room. There was a gentleman there singing songs and playing a guitar with lots of residents. I was watching the program when I was there. It looked like they had a good variety of food options. They have a nice dining room, nice places for people to sit, and a nice patio area. The residents could go outside. sit on the patio, and watch the sunset. It's a newer facility. It's clean.

My mother was at Edencrest at Beaverdale. It's newly constructed and it's a very nice place. I thought everybody was super nice too. My mother was not as hot on it, though, just because she didn't like the food. All these places have the same food and it's just not what she wanted; it was mashed potatoes and gravy -- that kind of thing. She would rather have a little more diversity in her diet or have more vegetables. That was her only complaint, but their activities were perfect for what she needed. It's a place where she was safe and able to move around in a wheelchair while she got better. Her room was very basic, but it had an ample-sized bathroom for a person to get in and out and move around with a wheelchair. She wanted a landline, so we had to set up a telephone line for her, but everything else, like the Wi-Fi and all that stuff, was available. They had an on-site maintenance staff who set all that up for us, and they were very nice folks. They also had an exercise room, a crafts room, and a library. There were a lot of activities that people participated in. For what they charged us and what they provided to our mother, it was a great deal. After her accident, she went into another assisted living place that was almost three times as much money. It was supposedly the nicest one in town, but it was basically the same thing.

What kind of turned me off at Edencrest at Beaverdale was the facility. The individual rooms had motel-like heating and cooling units under the windows, and I didn't like that. I thought the bathroom vanities were kind of cheap and just didn't seem as nice quality inside the room. But the people seemed nice, there's nothing wrong with that. The staff was very pleasant, I have no complaints about the staff that we met. The apartments were what seemed rather subpar, just in the construction. Otherwise, it seemed fine. The location is very, very nice. I thought it was overpriced for value, for the condition of the rooms.

My father just moved into Edencrest at Beaverdale. So far, what I liked the most was the facility itself. It's fairly new, so it was clean and nice. I can't give a fair opinion yet though. We're just trying to get things worked out. The higher-ups were very nice and very helpful. The other workers seemed like they have a lack of communication among them. So far, he does not like the food. He's only had three or four meals, but he wasn't impressed. They have tons of activities. They'll take them places like bus tours, they have card games and social get-togethers, live music, and dominos.

We did a tour at Edencrest at Beaverdale. I found everybody to be just as lovely as can be. The lady who gave us the tour was very helpful, and everything was just perfect. I have no criticism of them at all. I got all the information I needed, and everybody was friendly and respectful, so those are the things I appreciated the most. It looked like a big place; it looked like it had a lot of open spaces. It's also nice and clean.

My mom has moved into Edencrest at Beaverdale. I have nothing but good things to say about them. They're near my home, and they're just very inviting. I don't know enough about the facility because I haven't been able to go inside due to Covid. But I know that the interaction that they're having with my mom has been wonderful. They're very caring, they take time to get to know her, they take time to be with her, and they help her adapt to the new place. It's a good location for people in the Des Moines area. Everything is phenomenal and excellent.

I loved Edencrest at Beaverdale. It will accommodate my brother-in-law. He wants a single bedroom with a door on it so he can open the door and have these other two little living spaces. It's a little more secure than the other place, the same distance practically from our home. We don't think he will be able to get out of that place, plus they go from assisted living to memory care. It was beautiful, it was a wonderful place, they had the actual room with either a balcony or patio for him, and I know he would love that. We spoke with the nurse, the director there, and the gentleman that was also the director/co-chair, whatever he was, even the staff. They were all wonderful.

Edencrest was lovely, new, and airy. Their common areas were very nice and large. It was very nice. The food was fine. The rooms were fine, too. There were lots of lights. There was a very positive feel to it. The staff members were good. They had an area where you could visit or play games, they had a kitchen area where if someone wanted to bake or cook. They had an area to do puzzles, sit, and visit. They had lots of open common areas that were very nice.

Edencrest at Beaverdale is wonderful. The staff has been fantastic. It's always clean and well lit. There are lots of activities. There are card groups, exercise groups, excursions, and they're going to the zoo. They offer transportation to the grocery store and doctors' appointments. The food is the only thing that mom says is not fabulous. I have eaten there a couple of times.

Edencrest at Beaverdale was a nice facility, but it's not appropriate for my dad. It was clean, but had lots of stairs, and the assisted living did not seem like enough. The staff was very professional and nice. The dining area was nice and had tablecloths. They were decorating a Christmas tree and their halls at that time. The layout was a little weird for older people.

Edencrest at Beaverdale was the most expensive place I visited. We had a local storm, and one of the interesting aspect of Edencrest at Beaverdale is that it's right next to a restaurant that was flooded during the torrential rainstorm. The senior community was adequate and has enough space. They provide laundry, cleaning, and transportation. Their major selling point for me is that they're the only ones that gave me a little souvenir. They also invited me to have lunch. They don't have a lot of outdoor space (except for a few places where you can sit down). You can't play mini golf or volleyball, and it's in a very confined location. The staff member who gave me the tour was good.

Edencrest at Beaverdale is a brand-new and beautiful place. Dining is like eating in a restaurant. The staff seems pleasant and very engaging. They don't have a lot of grounds with a couple of porches. They have happy hours, and several daily activities both inside and outside the community. It seems like it's all good.

Edencrest at Beaverdale was very new and very clean. The staff and activity person were very nice. The food and amenities were good. They had a kitchen where they could cook or bake something. It had assisted living, so you get more personalized care. They seemed to make an effort to get their residents involved, which I really like. The only complaint I would have is it had the appearance of being massive. My mother has Alzheimer's, and the rooms were set far away from the administration and the dining area, which was not very comforting for her.
