Robert 2019-07-09 The Landings of Minnetonka's surroundings are very nice. They provide board games and exercises. The studios could be larger though. The dining room is very nice. The place itself is close to shopping. The staff member I met was nice. I visited this facility

Anonymous 2018-06-27 My sister has moved into the The Landing of Minnetonka. The accommodations are nice. At present, they're having an issue with their air conditioning that they're trying to fix. If the weather is hot, it gets very hot in there. The actual facility and dining room are nice. They have a large outside deck on the second floor, and a movie room that has about 25 La-Z-Boy chairs in it, and they show movies every night at 6:00. The facilities are nice. They offer outings and music with an activities coordinator who's pretty creative. The grounds are very beautiful. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

George 2018-06-23 The Landing of Minnetonka was nice, but it's an old facility that they remodeled. There were a lot of things that weren't happening. People had to be bused to therapy. They would bring some therapists in, but there wasn't any at the time that we were there. It's a beautiful facility and the grounds were very nice, but it was worn. It didn't seem like there were tons of people there either. There were a lot of empty rooms. The carpet was frayed and things were kind of messy. The office had stacks of papers and it was just a teeny tiny room. It also wasn't as welcoming as the other places. I visited this facility

Bly 2016-03-03 This assisted-living was first built in circa 1997.At that time it was called Carefree Living. It has since changed to, I think first, Presbyterian Homes and then again to Brookdale and now called Landings of Minnetonka. I question its many turnovers and or name changes. My dear friend lived there when it was called Carefree Living. There were a few odd things.. For instance at that time and possibly still, the thermostats for the rooms were all regulated at the front desk, so every time my friend wanted her thermostat adjusted, she would have to call down to the front desk and they would charge her five dollars for this service. They made $10 a day off her changing the room temperature because she of course wanted a different temperature during the day than when she was sleeping at night. Often she would have to call several times as no one was available at the desk when she would first call. Also these rooms are very small and they did not have kitchenettes. That made it very inconvenient for my friend, as she couldn't keep refrigerated snacks in her room. No cooking was allowed in the rooms, not even microwave and they charged extra for some meals. My friend requested that she only be bathed by females and that request was denied. My friend's daughter had to visit during office hours if she wanted to speak with staff as her phone calls were never returned, after my friend moved into the building. Soon, my friend moved to an assisted living in Edina where she could set her own room temperature and keep milk and juice cold, /warm something up in a microwave and staff was responsive to phone calls as well as her request to be bathed by female staff only. .Often, we came to find the staff sitting around watching TV rather than interacting with the residents. I hope now that this company is called Landings of Minnetonka, there is much improvement. That may well be the case. Just some odd things that if you're looking for assisted-living for your loved one to ask about before moving them in. I am a friend or relative of resident

Steve113861050 2015-11-30 Brookdale are extremely accommodating. The environment was clean and friendly. It happened to be in the top two choices right now. It seems like a good environment for my father-in-law. I visited this facility

Julie99990250 2015-01-26 Minnetonka Assisted Living (Emeritus Minnetonka Assisted Living) was very nice. I liked it. The staff was very nice. I liked the look of it, and I liked the way it was set up. It seemed warm and cozy. I thought it would a good place for my dad. The rooms were very nice and clean. They were laid out nice, and they were roomy and spacious. The dining room looked very nice and inviting. The price was good, and it was near my father's house. They allowed dogs. I visited this facility

Douglas1 2013-08-27 Minnetonka Assisted Living is a beautiful facility. It is also in a beautiful location. I was very impressed with it. The living environment is very plush. The place is fabulous and very upscale. They have lots of Persian carpets on the floor and lots of antique furniture that are comfortable to sit on. It is an absolute topnotch assisted living facility. Their dining room is gorgeous and beautiful. I didn't eat anything there but the residents I talked to said that the food was excellent. They also have activities and amenities. They have a library, a computer room, and common rooms where they show films in and play bingo in. The only problem I have with this facility is that all they had available for me at that time were very small efficiency or studio-type apartments. The room that they had for me to move into literally was the size of one of my storage closets at home. I couldn't see myself going into that small room. It was about 8-foot-by-12-foot. As far as recommending this facility, if they are living in a very small apartment right now and they are looking to upgrade their apartment that they're in, this would be a very nice place to live in. I would also say that for some people who would take a look at Emeritus, they should be prepared for the smallness of the area that they are going to show you, which is also their entry level living area. I visited this facility

Barbara35 2013-06-20 I found the Emeritus at Minnetonka big and it was okay. I wasn't impressed with the long hallway though. It did overlook on the nature area that was close to one of our family. But, because we definitely would want something that has a dementia care available that would not be our choice. I visited this facility

BJT1 2012-12-22 Moving in my grandmother to this facility on the hottest day of the year showed us just how caring and compassionate the staff is regarding its residents and their families. Not only were doors held for us at every opportunity, but one of the maintenance workers even helped us carry her (very heavy) antique writing desk out of the truck and up the stairs to her room. While we were moving her things, my grandmother sat in the common area and played cards with some of the residents, just trying to make new friends. By the time we finished moving all of her things into her room, my grandmother had made fast friends with the residents and was gamely complaining that she wouldn't be allowed to play bingo for money here, just chocolate. We knew she was going to fit in then, and she seemed so pleased to have ample opportunity to socialize. I am a friend or relative of a resident

commercesd 2011-12-28 I came to the Minneapolis area to visit a friend and help him to find an assisted living facility. From the outside, Minnetonka building resembled a nice colonial structure -- charming and inviting. The interior was as warm and friendly as its staff, who welcomed us when we arrived. We were offered fresh-made cookies from their kitchen - much like when visiting friends and family. The trees and shrubs looked well-tended and beautiful - nicely gracing the sides of the home. We sat on the lovely deck for a light lunch - which consisted of a healthy chicken salad and our choice of dressing, bread and soup. Everything was delicious. The main room featured a wide-screen TV and a bookcase -- which resembled a country colonial living room -- only a bit modernized and still homey. They design all of their services individually, to suit the needs of their residents. We really like this aspect - since people change all the time and I am not sure how my friend's condition will change over time. All of the rooms looked like personalized dwellings and the residents all seemed very comfortable and at home. My friend is wheelchair bound at times, and we liked that he could easily access any of the rooms. We also liked that the library had such a nice variety, because he is an avid reader. His vision is impaired, and we were delighted to see that the staff was able to adapt the computer so that he could easily use it if he wishes. There are plenty of activities for everyone to consider and participate in. The Minnetonka region offers many community-focused events to choose from. The local schools invite the residents to visit for plays, fund-raising and other interesting events. The local library is not far away -- has a great selection and regularly visits the facility. Also - Minnetonka is not far from the Minneapolis area, so the residents regularly visit for theater, restaurants and shopping. The staff immediately put us so at ease that we nearly forgot we were there to see an assisted living facility! Definitely a lovely place to spend any retirement. I visited this facility
