Promoting Wellness for a Vibrant Life

“I work here as a RA. I highly recommend this facility because the management, staff, and residents are awesome. You will love this place and safety is a plus.”

“My aunt lives here. Great staff and residents….they are very welcoming to all.
Lots of activities and we attend an event and fundraiser for Alzheimer.”

“I am always greeted with a smile from the concierge and residents are so friendly and happy!”

“Had the opportunity to visit this building and meet the staff on a number of occasions. So impressed to see how they care for the residents. Also don’t miss checking out the indoor and outdoor amenities. A great senior living community.”

“I moved my mother into The Orchards last year in the midst of Covid 19. I can’t say enough about the precautions and care that the staff have given to the residents! The Orchards is a beautiful, welcoming environment, and my 93 year old mother is SO happy being a resident!!”

“The Orchards is fantastic. The staff is wonderful. They are always asking her how they can help her and make her day better. I totally trust them with my mother. The building is beautiful, very clean and safe. She loves it there!”

“My Mom loves her new apartment, the food, new friends, and the activities (she went walking with a group yesterday). I moved her from out of state and was worried, but, all is well. She is very happy in a “resort-like” beautiful new community at The Orchards.”

I take great pride in working here, knowing that our team is dedicated to treating each resident with dignity, respect, and kindness. It is incredibly rewarding to know that the work we do not only meets medical and daily living needs, but also helps residents feel safe, valued, and at home. Several family members recently expressed in our survey that they gave us ‘five stars, hands down,’ which is a true reflection of the dedication and heart our staff put into caring for residents every day.”

As a visiting therapeutic musician in the Dimensions Program and a teaching artist in Independent Living, I have always experienced a strong sense of community and joy at Orchards of Minnetonka.  Programs are designed creatively with clear intentionality and operations are extremely well-managed, yet there is a lovely sense of ease and improvisational flow in the air.  I have always left the building with a bigger smile on my face than when I entered.  

Prior to moving to Orchards of Minnetonka, I was living in a large home (that my late wife and I built).  In the evenings, I would come back to an empty house, and it was incredibly lonely.  My daughter suggested I look at a place that would offer more opportunities for daily socialization.  After touring Orchards of Minnetonka, it was evident that there would always be something to do around here.  It has been seven months since I moved in, and I am blown away at the incredible environment that has been created by the staff and the residents.  There is always something to do here at Orchards.  From exercise classes, to card games, to religious services of all denominations, to outings and more, the staff at Orchards make sure your days are filled with engaging and educational experiences.  When you walk in the doors, every single staff member knows your name and happily greets you with a kind and happy smile.  Living at Orchards of Minnetonka has become not only a place to call home, but also a place where I feel welcome and loved.  I am certain you will too!
