The Farmstead was very good. The menus looked good. They had individual rooms and they had full size kitchens. The stove was tiny, but in the memory care the stove was unplugged. It would feel more like home in a real kitchen, but they just can't cook in there because they don't want anything that produces heat that they could start a fire. However, if their family would like to come and have dinner with them and maybe bring a hot dish and heat it up in the oven, then the staff would come and plug the oven in so that we could use it and the stove. Otherwise, they just have a refrigerator and a sink that works. The microwave and the stove were unplugged. That was kind of cool that you could come there and visit. Their activities sounded wonderful. That day, they had taken the residents out on the patio and they did watercolor paints. They have a schedule where they do things every day and it looked fun.

The Farmstead was a gorgeous place. We loved it. It's brand new and was very beautiful. It was my mother-in-law's favorite place that we visited. The staff was very warm, welcoming, understanding, and non-pushy. They were very, very nice. The apartments were gorgeous, too. They got all these windows overlooking a beautiful field with horses and a farm (which was just right next door). We saw some people reading and a couple of others doing puzzles in this gorgeous big library. At lunch hour, people were sitting around tables, visiting, and seemed very happy and enjoying themselves in this busy bustling lunchroom. We asked for and they gave us a list of what the activities are during the week and it looked like it's a very fun place to live. The only downside was that it's out in the country. So, friends and relatives who live in West Fargo and the Kindred area would have a much longer drive when they come and visit my in-laws. Other than that, they liked everything about it.

I will be moving into The Farmstead. I toured them, and I like the way the director presented it. The building itself was very well appointed, the painting, the colors and the layout were very, very good. The choice of the apartment was great. I think it's going to be a good fit. With Covid, I didn't get a chance to communicate much with anyone except the director there, one of the maintenance people, and the chapel representative. They're very friendly. I like almost everything about the place, except that the area it's in, is quite busy, traffic-wise. It doesn't have the open areas that some of the others have, but it has a walking track in the basement and everything else that I wanted. I did not try the food. I visited the dining area, and they have many choices. I can order one meal or a full meal program. I've been cooking for myself for several months now, so I intend to take one meal a day, and then supplement with what I can do. They've responded to every question that I had and have called me back if there were any changes. Everything has been pretty positive. I didn't get to see an awful lot of it, but all that I saw was very clean and well cared for.

We visited The Farmstead. It was awesome. It was very clean, it was big, and I like the layout. They have a choice of three different rooms. The efficiency was just one room, but it had a small kitchenette, which was fine. Then they had a small one-bedroom apartment and then they had a two-bedroom type thing. We looked at the one-bedroom and the efficiency. However, once my mother-in-law's money runs out, she'll have to go on the elderly waiver, and they couldn't guarantee a spot because each county only has so many spots for an elderly waiver. They have a lot of involvement there. They've got all the activities. Plus around the building, they've got the walking paths that my mother-in-law loved. In the wintertime, they've got underground parking and it's heated. So they also have a walking path down there and it's painted so they know where to walk so the cars don't go in that area and that was great. They've got an outside patio. The rooms were very clean. Everything was nice. Families I've known to have their loved ones there had nothing but good to say about it.

The Farmstead is expensive, but very clean and strict, which is good. There's somebody scrubbing the floor all the time and they're wiped every day. There's a huge amount of services and the staff is very good. The dining area is very clean. The food smells really good.

They were very welcoming at The Farmstead and contacted a few residents who were willing to have us look at their apartments and talk to them. It was really nice to talk to people who live there. It was a small community, which was nice for our mom. They invited us to have a meal with them and the food was great. It was well kept, and the residents seemed happy. There were lots of activities posted. My mom has only been there a month. She seems to be comfortable and loves the food.
