Independent Living Community in Des Moines, Iowa

Happy Tenant

I have lived at Stone Crest for 4 years. It is a wonderful place for a senior citizen to live. There are a lot of activities that you can take part in. The administration has made many changes with the living areas, and are working on updating the apartments. All of the employees are kind, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. My family is very pleased with my living here, I would recommend Stone Crest to everyone.

I went to Edencrest at Beaverdale twice, and I absolutely love that place. It is fantastic. What I liked the most was the environment. It was very friendly, very clean, very personable, and I thought the staff that I met was very welcoming, as were some of the people that lived there. The dining area was very open, bright, spacious, and welcoming too. They have a beauty salon, a library, a workout room, and lots of sitting areas where you can just sit quietly and read a book throughout the place. They have a room with a pool table in it, and a room for crafts and other activities. They also have happy hours twice a week, a big aquarium to look at, and a fireplace. It's beautiful.

It is independent living. We need a place that has levels of care like assisted living, but they don't have them. It's pretty nice and we liked it, but we were concerned about mom needing further care in the future. She'd either have to have people come in to her room or she'd have to go to another place, and we don't want to move her again after we get this move done. The layout was nice. I would recommend it if somebody just needed a place where they could be independent, but have their meals served, and their laundry and housecleaning done. They do all of that there. They have cocktail hour, they were playing bongo drums when I was there, and they have a lot of things going on. The food was good.

We visited and it was great. They were fine, but they did not have the exact thing my friend needed. The residents seemed happy and friendly, and I was greeted by different residents as I walked around. I met a couple of the staff who were friendly and accommodating.
