I went to The Waters of Eden Prairie (Formerly The Colony). They seemed to have good customer service, they're pleasant, and trying to do their best to adapt to the Covid restrictions. I like them. The staff seemed good. The people seemed friendly. The apartments were clean, bright, and spacious. They had a nice outdoor patio, and a lot of the apartments had outdoor decks.

The Colony is lovely with three floors and relatively new, with nice, large, sunny apartments. My mom has only been there for a month, but we're very satisfied with them. Theyve done concerts, exercise class in the morning, library, and book club, and offer transportation to local shopping. The food is really good. We're very happy.

I'm living at The Colony, and I am very happy here. Everything is good. The dining area is lovely. The food is good, and I am happy. My apartment is exactly what I wanted; I love it. They offer so many activities that I can't take part in all of them, but exercise is my favorite. I would recommend this facility because I am happy here.

The rooms at The Colony are very nice. It's top notch. The staff is very good. The food is adequate. They have a library. They have workout rooms, and they go on trips. The best thing is the location. It's across the street from a major shopping center. They could improve mainly on the food.

My dad liked The Colony, it's real good. There are two dining rooms in different floors. There's even a little café, they have snacks at different times, he likes that. He got into 1-bedroom, adequate closets. It has windows so it's not real dark, he got some daylight coming in. They have a billiard table, they have a game room and they have different events in there throughout the year. The staff is real good, they're friendly and accommodating.

My children chose The Colony at Eden Prairie for me because it's new and they have an elderly waiver. I got a two-bedroom apartment with two bath. It is spacious and lovely. The staff here are wonderful. The food is pretty good. The dining room is very nice. They have a few activities, but it's hard to break in for somebody who is new to the facility like me. I'm satisfied here, but not happy.

My husband stays in this nursing home. I decided to bring him here because its the cleanest of all that I've seen. The building is pleasant, it has patios with grass all around and the surrounding is very nice. He stays in a room where there's a bed, a big table, chair, a sink and a bathroom. I can see that the care given by the personnel is just adequate. However, to provide better service, this nursing home should add more trained nurses. In addition, they should also pay more attention to their residents.

The Colony is very, very nice. It's clean, it's fabulous. They have everything there. The staff is very cordial. The prices are pretty high. It depends on how much deluxe you want. If you want a real deluxe place, the price is going to be high. It was a 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment.

For the most part, I was very impressed by Colony. The apartments are thoughtfully laid out and spacious. My favorite thing about the apartments is the fact that some floor plans have a small study that could be repurposed into a second bedroom. There are many opportunities for residents to interact and the common areas are cheerful and have some very nice views. The available food was nutritious and well cooked, if a bit bland to my palate. The staff are kind, cheerful, and positive people who work very hard to keep the residents comfortable.This facility did not work out well for my grandparents however. Both of them required more care than Colony was set up to provide. I do not see this as a judgement on the quality of their day to day staff and caregivers who were excellent. I do see this as a failure on the part of the placement staff and my family to communicate the level of care that my grandparents needed. I would recommend Colony to any one who needs a bit of extra help from time to time in their daily routine but is mostly independent.
