The Waters of Eden Prairie sits across from Eden Prairie Mall and near other attractions, right on a nature preserve with a pond, walking path, and mature evergreens all around, so the setting feels peaceful and the grounds are tidy and clean. The monthly price starts low at $1,545.00, and folks can pick from studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, each with its own kitchen, washer and dryer, cable, and internet. There are several floor plans and private rooms to choose from, and some apartments come furnished. Small pets are welcome which is helpful for those that want companionship. The community provides independent living, assisted living, memory care through PETALS Memory Care, continuing care, skilled nursing, and a 25+ bed transitional care center for short stays and rehab after health events like surgery or injury.
There's always care tailored to different needs-some residents only need light support, but others may need help with things like bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, or memory support. Specialized care covers cardiac care, stroke recovery, diabetes management, hip and knee replacement, and wound care. Residents can get help as their needs change, including medication management and health monitoring, and the staff respond in a timely way to questions or requests with 24-hour presence on-site.
The Waters of Eden Prairie is known for the "The Waters Way"-a care philosophy where staff aim to know each resident well, greeting people by name, and paying close attention to their needs and wishes, which helps everyone feel connected. The place is also recognized for friendly staff, social activities, outstanding meals from a professional chef with full dietary accommodations, and programs that support residents' physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. People can join in grocery trips, errands, religious services, gardening, arts and crafts, live performances, games, holiday parties, and outings.
There's a fitness center, a salon and spa, a restaurant-style dining room with room service, a coffee shop, a theater room, and wide gathering spaces for social events. Residents have walking paths, outdoor patios, covered parking, guest parking, and security features like controlled and handicap access and wheelchair accessibility. Housekeeping and laundry are included, and residents can do laundry themselves or have it done for them. Staff assist with transportation, errands, and respite stays, and there are signature programs that encourage freedom of choice and personalized living.
The focus remains on meeting the needs of each person, with care and services brought right to the apartments as needed, and they're always adjusting support to fit what each resident wants. The quality of the meals, the high level of tidiness, and the activities offered have all won awards for being outstanding. Tours of the community are available so people can see daily life, try the dining options, and watch how the activities run. The Waters of Eden Prairie holds a license as a senior living provider, and it works to make sure residents and staff look out for one another, creating a caring and safe environment.
