Next Level Senior Living recently took over this site and wow what a wonderful place. I have seen a lot of assisted living centers in a lot of states across the country, and this is one of the warmest, most homelike environment I have come across.

One of the most depressing places my husband and I toured. Out dated. Rooms were so small. Everything happens in the central room. Not much much room to maneuver. It smelled horribly like fish. Lacked privacy and dignity options for residents. The views were horrible…an abandoned daycare yard with tires. The person was nice. State of MN reports had us concerned.
