Recent reviews of Independent Living in Whittemore, IA
Otsego Place in Storm Lake, IA
5.0

Both my Mother and now my Mother in law have been residents of Otsego Place. It has given my husband and I a great feeling of comfort knowing these two ladies had the best of care. The staff are like family, the food is excellent, and there are lots of activies for them to participate in. This is an independent living facility so they can come and go as they please. There are different levels of care so that if Mom has some issues you can taylor the care to her needs. Yes it costs more for each level of care, but good care is not cheap and we want the best for our parents.

Keelson Harbour in Spirit Lake, IA
3.9

I am no expert on what care should be like. I see people that are in pretty bad shape that require a lot of attention, in my opinion, questionable if they shouldn't be in skilled nursing instead. But what do I know!! Most of the workers try hard to be accommodating, but the shortage of help puts a load on all of them. Unfortunately, this is the world we live in today. The place is clean and does not smell. I wouldn't know if the food was good or not.. my mom eats and does not complain. Keelson was very accommodating when we reached a crisis point and needed a room. I don't know how often activities are encouraged. However the activities director is good with the residents. I would recommend this facility to others. I would recommend this facility to others.

Meadows Independent Living in Clarion, IA
4.8

The value of this community for the area is very reasonable, and we can walk through the community to get to the hospital and pharmacy. There is no staff on the weekends but if we have an emergency, we can pull the cord and someone from the hospital will come over. Before COVID there was bingo, bridge, and once a month they would have musical entertainment. Every couple of months they would have a special dinner for the residents. Even now we have an exercise classes for an hour twice a week.
