The kenwood is lovely
The Kenwood is a wonderful place where the residents and staff have made my dad feel very at home. This is saying a lot considering that my dad has very isolationisttendencies. It is brilliant that breakfast is included in rent because my dad wouldnt let that perk go to waste! So he goes down for breakfast most days and engages with other people. His mental and physical abilities have improved significantly just from engaging more with people everyday rather than being alone at his house like he was. The staff are so friendly and thoughtful and it makes him feel safe

Why I like my Home at The Kenwood
I love the location. My daughter lives in Bryn Mawr (where I grew up) and I have two other children in Minneapolis. I am lucky to have a Southwest corner location and I can see planes flying in from the West, places in my childhood memory, and the seasons change (leaves). I’ve never heard of crossword since I moved in!

Love your Home
The Kenwood is good for me because I am close to my two sons and their families. Windows in my apartment are large, which offers me a great view of the downtown Minneapolis skyline. The windows also allow a lot of light into my apartment. Dining room servers and staff are always welcoming and friendly.

My Wonderful Home
Welcome to my home where the whole atmosphere is welcoming from staff to residents and aids. You would feel welcome. I love my view, the room space, and cleaning help. No one should be lonely or bored, because the many activities, led by experts. You would be happy to give up cooking because the food is very good! You couldn’t find a more educated group of friends.

Independence – Opportunity – Safety - Service
Our health is great, but our years make it clear that this won’t last forever. For us, life at The Kenwood is independence plus safety and services. Our city location is terrific. We’re near family and friends; within minutes of libraries, health clubs, grocery stores, churches, parks, and every amenity of urban life that’s meant everything to us over the decades. We still drive - delighted to park our car in our heated garage. Two major bus lines are a block away. The Kenwood van is here if we need it. And the walkable neighborhood is worth its weight in gold. Of course, old friends and interest shifts as we age, but The Kenwood defies the notion that growing old shrinks our lives. Instead, we find new friends and new opportunities. Discussions are rich, memories are enhanced, and anytime we step out of the privacy of our apartment, new interests are near at hand. Independence, opportunities, services keep us young. We’ve found them all at The Kenwood

Gorgeous Views of the City
We love our apartment at The Kenwood, which has gorgeous views of the city. It’s just a short walk to a lovely park. There are some excellent programs and good conversations with people from diverse backgrounds. Management is thoughtful and efficient. A good place for us.

Our tour experience
Our family had an in person tour and we thought their programming was fabulous. We really liked the community a lot, it seemed like it was a well run facility and we thought our loved one would of enjoyed it there. What was challenging about Kenwood is their apartments, they were quite old fashion and even though we really liked the style our loved one did not.

The offer a shuttle to go to the grocery store or the doctor. They offer tons of activities like movies, games or music. I would recommend this community.

Helpful Staff!!
I have no complaints of how things had went during my tour of this community. The staff where on time to our appointment and made sure to answer any questions I had for them in detail. I liked the open floor plan as well as other great amenities they had available to the residents. Overall it was a great place just was not the right fit for myself in the end decision.

[Removed] gave my daughter and me a very good tour. It is a fine facility except that it is 'too' vertical. There is a definite 'pinch point' at the two elevators, and they are all used to get all residents to the 2nd floor where all the facilities are.

Respite at The Kenwood
[Removed] was very welcoming and accommodating. There wasn't a microwave in the apartment and she got one for my father. The food in the dining room is tasty with a nice selection. My father's furnished apartment is small but comfortable and was perfect while he recovered from his broken foot. There are several activities but attendance is sporadic. Sometime 3-4 people show up and other times 50 people attend. Residents are very friendly but tend to sit together at meals without much shifting around. My father was given a "greeter" and Bob has been incredibly welcoming and informative...making my father's time at the Kenwood comfortable.

A Happy Woman
My aunt is happy and feels like the staff are taking care of her. They are helping with medication and she knows that any staff is a quick call away if she needs anything. She has a fine meal plan to eat from. I like that she is in the university area with more to do. It's a good place that has a homey environment and more ideal for people who are active. It was the only place with availability and nursing care that can lift people.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
about The Kenwood

The Kenwood offers 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored The Kenwood 9.5 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.
