Trouvaille Memory Care Suites in Excelsior, MN
5.0

We've been very pleased with how things have gone with BeeHive Homes! It's a very nice community, and they've been very easy to work with through the whole process. They were very accommodating to our situation when we moved our loved one in, and we've been happy with the service and communication we've had since.

Benedictine Windermere Way in Shakopee, MN
4.8

The tenants are friendly and happy people. They engage with new people and the various spaces are set up great for the events they hold. My father-in-law passed in early December, but the staff was very caring leading up to him having to go into the hospital, and we were able to connect with the housing Director and nursing Director often to discuss his needs and variation of care.

New Perspective Prior Lake
4.7

We chose New Perspective Prior Lake over others that we looked at because the facility was close by, she could be independent in her own apartment and could add services when needed. It was clean, food is good and staff is friendly. All of the staff have been very helpful. We haven't tried many activities yet and she does not really require much care either.
