The Waters Senior Living

My mother is a resident of The Waters of Edina and her experience overall has been very good. Some of things I would comment on are: the dining room is a bit slow when they bring your food and they were not very clear in the beginning when we wanted to order half a sandwich and we were getting charged for a full sandwich. The Staff overall is very well trained with a few exceptions. The activity calendar is good. I wouldn't call it great. I wish they had more art activities, but I guess in the past that wasn't a big hit there for some reason. Overall, I would recommend this facility to family and friends.

It's clean with lots of activities for the residents. There are great caring people at Waters. Most of the time it is very positive and staff adjust care base on my Mom's needs. For that we are grateful. Sadly I can see it is a struggle to find and retain the quality of staff they are seeking. Overall, my mom is in a good, safe place that is well located so family can visit regularly. The nursing staff are very responsive!

This was a good community during the tour. The staff were very helpful, and responsive. There was no vacancy at the time for my friend.

I would recommend, out of the ones I seen this is the best for my loved one.

I would recommend to other families. They have activities such as; card, movies, and outside entertainment. The food is okay.

I picked this community because it had an opening and less residents. We are very happy with, my loved ones care, and the staff has lots of patience.

The staff members are so sweet to our loved ones there, they really make them feel comfortable. Right when you walk in it just gives off a great energy and vibe. The food is fine there are no issues with the food, but the dining service is extremely slow at times and they make a ton of mistakes. They do have activities but we wish they just offered up more of a variety. In general we loved The Water of Edina.

The pricing for the care is off the charts expensive. They also charge a $9 fee for meals being delivered to the room which I do not get because my loved ones room is right down the hall. The care is not transparent and the pricing is hard to understand. Other than the pricing, the facility is really great.

We had a really nice tour with Waters of Eden Prairie. The facility was lovely but it was expensive. They required a long stay before being eligible for elderly waiver, so that was why we did not choose them.

Moving to Kingsley Shores has been really good for my family member. She has found companionship, and she likes how many activities there are to do. She likes the food mostly. And she likes her apartment. The staff has been really good. I would certainly recommend it to other families.

I would recommend them.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. They do a great job considered they seem to be understaffed. Never worried about our loved ones safety or anything but they do need to hire more staff.

The meals themselves are really good but with the staffing shortage the dining service is slow so sometimes the meals are cold and takes awhile to get delivered. The activities are wonderful.

Nice place with a variety of services.

This community was very nice we were just not ready for the changes. There also was no bathtub in the units and you had to pay extra to park in the lot.

Everything that was promised has been delivered. It's a very nice place. My mom feels very at home and comfortable there, which is a huge part of it. I definitely recommend the apartments and the community.

The openness and cleanliness of the Waters really stood out to us, and on our initial tour the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. The apartments are very nice, spacious and almost sound proof.

It is a great and newer community. The communication is still being improved on with the family and residents. The location is convenient to shopping.

It is a warm community with many opportunities. We look forward to socializing with other residents. Some of the activities are a warm water pool, games, book clubs, and more for the residents to choose from.

It is a nice community. There is a high turnover of staff, and they don't follow the instructions. The billing has been inaccurate, and has been frustrating. It is the small things that have added up for us.
