Lots to do
Staff is wonderful !!!
Small community so making friend is so easy. Just show up and everyone knows you.
My apartment is old and doesn't have a dishwasher, they did put in a disposal for me. I plan on possibly get a dishwasher installed.
I didn't realize how old this place is. Well taken care of and adding things to do all the time. I really like how staff is working on projects.
There is lots to do!
They added a boat for time on the lake we are on. I came from a much larger place and staff was very busy. The staff here is always ready to join in and help.

What’s up for tomorrow.
I not feeling well, problems with medications. Two days after moving In I receive notice my rent just went up. I start to hear rumors. It true. We are not a duel independent/assisted but only assisted living. What does that mean??
I am comfortable here, could have a up to date kitchen. They did make it more handicap accessible but still shows it age. No dishwasher, garbage disposal, microwave and stove like my grandmother had. They did put in a used disposal that has broken down twice.
I like it for nice bedroom and living room. I am just about All moved in. A few more pictures to hang. Am I going to stay or will I move on. I have sold my car in order save money so I really have no way to look at more. What I have seen, I think I could like it people are very nice and I love the smaller building ,less people to get to know. I spent about 12 hours reading new lease and have a lot of question.

Tour Was Nice
We had a pleasant tour of this community. We toured it for my father in law, and his needs. Everything went well, this is a nice community. The community was clean, and everything appeared to be well-kept. The staff was kind, and our questions were answered. It was a nice experience, and our tour went well.

Nice Tour.
The community at Elim Shores offered a nice tour. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. They were able to address all of my concerns. It is a smaller community and they did not offer as many amenities as others I visited in the area.

Elated with Elim !!!
After our initial contact with " A Place for Mom " services we were able to view 4 other locations including Elim Shores. Upon our first verbal and personal meeting with Elim Shores we were SOLD on their services, courtesies and available options for our loved one ( Mother / age 92 ). Since moving into Elim Shores our Mother has been able to meet many other seniors and participate in the daily and weekly functions / services offered by Elim Shores with ease. Moving from her long term permanent residence to a new beginning of apartment living at Elim Shores has been an easy transition for her and our family. As with all Senior residences -expenses can be a key factor. Elim Shores offers both FREE services covered in your monthly rent as well as additional cost options should those needs be necessary or just be needed on a short term basis. Whatever you may be looking for in accommodations and services we feel that Elim Shores is a definite winner and worth looking at for a comparison of your Senior Living needs. Good Luck !!!!!

Very Welcoming
The community is small, attractive and it is at a nice location on the lake. The residents enjoy getting out & enjoying the weather and the view. I have had the pleasure of working with Mark and he is wonderful. My dad likes the cooks and servers in the dinning room and says the food is decent. Dad has made a lot of friends and enjoys listening to the visitors that come in, as well as attending the church services. The community also offers a shuttle bus for outings. One thing that is concerning to me is the fact that we dealt with a manager in our initial stages of contacting the community and she was abruptly let go. I really liked her and that was part of the reason we chose the community. Since she's left my experience with the staff hasn't been bad and I am hoping that everything goes as promised moving forward.

Review of Elim SHores in Eden Prairie, MN
Nothing but good things to say about Elim Shores. The staff is first class and the place is kept very nice. My parents moved in beginning of November 2014 and are very happy.
We are happy they found exactly what they were looking for and the location is perfect as well. Thanks to everyone that made this possible.

My mom absolutely 'came to life' while visiting Elim! Mark, our guide, was so kind and genuinely interested in what my mother wanted in her next home. The residents kept on with what they were doing while still being just as genuine to Mom. She loved the lunch, the fact that the laundry does not require quarters (!), the Bingo time we stepped in on, the idea of being able to get warmed up to Catherine's dog that she brings in almost every day, and more. And I think the campus was just the right size for Mom.

We are very pleased.
The staff is really great! I would give them a five plus. This has been a challenging transition for them. They rave about the maintenance and housekeeping. There's always things made available and things going on and the activities director makes an effort to get them to join in. The intamacy of Elim Shores is helpful. When I visit whether I am coming or going, I see the residents smiling and there is always somebody on duty and always things going on. We are very pleased.

Great Place!
Elim Shores is a great place. A Place for Mom was spot on with their recommendations and Elim was the best match for my mom. She was resistant to moving but it has worked out as best as possible. The people are great. Everybody has extended themselves to my mother and the caregivers are kind and gentle with her. They do what she needs them to do without being intrusive.
My mother has only been there for two weeks and hasn't had time to participate in the activities yet but they are available and appropriate for her.
This is a really nice, low-key, home-like environment. I have nothing but positive things to say.

Tips for evaluating your community options
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Elim Shores 6.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
