A friend of mine recommended Havenwood for my Mom, as his Mom was and currently is a resident. We had toured several different facilities and Havenwood stood out as it was a new building with large apartments, upscale appliances, friendly staff, and competitive prices. My mom lived in the independent living area for 3 years. She had a fabulous 1 bedroom apartment. She made many friends and was able to participate in many activities. She played bingo, exercised in the gym, attended building wide happy hours, as well as small group get togethers with the friends she made on the fourth floor. She transitioned to assisted living for a short period, where she enjoyed the meals and fellowship in the dining hall, before having to enter the memory care facility. It was difficult to see my mom suffer through the decline associated with dementia, but the understanding and care of the memory care team made the difficult journey more easy to bear. Melissa and her team provided ongoing activities that my Mom enjoyed, and personal assistance that gave my family peace of mind. Sarah, head of nursing services, kept us apprised of my Mom's changing condition, and coordinated with the wonderful nurses at Minnesota Hospice, to keep my mom comfortable. In the last days of her life, the nurses and care staff were amazing. Melissa and Tasha have hearts of gold, and the rest of the staff such as Tiffany, Silver, Ingrid and Willow were constantly by her side in her final hours and kept her comfortable. After her passing we felt it appropriate to have her service at the Havenwood community room. We appreciate Julies's help in coordinating. Chaplain Grace took care of all the logistics and conducted a wonderful service. Kristin, with assistance from Dawnn, as well as the kitchen and serving staff, oversaw all of our needs, sacrificing their time on the weekend to guarantee we had an amazing send off for mom. Thank you so much to the entire staff, I can't recommend Havenwood more. David Eckstrom

My memories of senior living go all the way back to the 70's and 80's when my grandma and my own mom lived in a skilled nursing "facility". So, I've always thought that is what every senior living place is like. My daughter works at Havenwood and has been encouraging me to come sometime and visit, just so I could see Havenwood of Burnsville and see that it is not a "facility". I finally decided to go and visited on a day when they were having live music. It was so much fun to see the show and watch the residents as they sang along and visited with each other. I couldn't help but notice how much the residents seemed to really care about each other and enjoy each other's company. The staff was engaging with everyone and the building itself is beautiful, it is nothing like the skilled nursing "facility" I remembered. Every staff member I encountered was kind and truly seemed to love their job. And the residents I got to sit with and talk to could not say enough about how much they love living at Havenwood of Burnsville. Because my daughter works there I've also been able to enjoy the food when she brings a meal home. The food is delicious which again, is not something that I was expecting based on my own previous experiences with the skilled nursing "facility" my grandma and mom lived in. While I myself am not looking for senior living, after visiting Havenwood of Burnsville I would not hesitate to tell anyone I know that may be looking for senior living, to go visit Havenwood. You won't be disappointed!
When my parents needed to be closer to a family member and it was determined that they would move from Oregon to Minnesota, looking for their new home was daunting. Who/where could possibly have all the necessities and yet make it feel like home? In our search, we found Kristin and Havenwood. In reality, we had found their home! The facility is beautiful! Well kept, exceptionally clean and vibrant, with a variety of activities for residents to join if they wish. The chef, Terrence, makes all meals by scratch and knows every resident by name! The front desk crew knows our family by name and is always truly happy to see us and beyond helpful! Kristin was who really exemplified what Havenwood was-a true community and family. She patiently met with us, answered all of our questions and wonderings quickly and never tired of our many wonderings. She is genuine and immediately we felt that moving my parents half way across the country was the right and best move for them, as Kristin and staff have become part of our family! Highly recommend!!
My Grandpa moved into Havenwood a little over a year ago. The staff has been exceptional in all aspects. They have made it their mission to ensure he is right at home. I am extremely thankful for all Havenwood of Burnsville has done for my Grandpa! Kristin, the sales director, has also been extremely helpful throughout the process. All in all, a great place for your loved one in need.
Our experience with Havenwood of Burnsville has been very enjoyable. Kristen made a very stressful event very simple and enjoyable! We felt at home right away. We really like living here and Kristen is so great. She always has a big smile and makes you feel like you are part of the family right away. Thank you Kristen for making a difficult time easy.
