    Roomy community with caring staff

    I'm a long-term resident who moved closer to family - one of the best decisions I've made. The community is beautiful and roomy, conveniently near Cub and Northtown, with engaging activities and a family-like atmosphere; residents clearly love living here. The staff, office, maintenance and cleaning teams - and our manager who spends time with us - are caring, friendly and hardworking. Note: meals aren't provided, so it may not suit those who need dining services, but I highly recommend it.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the review summaries is strongly positive, with repeated praise for staff, community atmosphere, and the environment. Multiple reviewers describe the staff as caring, friendly, superb, and supportive; office, maintenance, and cleaning teams are repeatedly called out as helpful. Several reviewers explicitly state that residents love living there and that they would highly recommend the community, and at least one resident identifies as a long-term resident who is happy with their choice.

    Staff and care quality emerge as the most frequently cited strengths. Reviewers emphasize a hands-on, engaged management style — the community manager is described as nice, visible, and actively spending time with residents, working hard to keep them happy. The tone used about staff is uniformly positive: impressions such as "impressed with staff," "superb staff," and "supportive" appear multiple times. This suggests consistent interpersonal care and attention from front-line and administrative personnel.

    Community life and activities are another clear positive theme. Reviews mention many activities and engaging programming and refer to a family-like atmosphere. That combination — frequent activities plus a close-knit social feel — supports the impression of an active, socially connected environment suitable for residents who value engagement and community relationships.

    Facilities and location receive favorable comments: the community is called "beautiful" and "beautiful looking," apartments are described as roomy, and the location is noted as convenient (specifically near Cub and Northtown). These points indicate a well-maintained physical environment and convenient nearby shopping, which are practical benefits for residents and families.

    Dining and service limitations are the main recurring concern. One review explicitly states "no meals offered" and notes that the community "does not meet needs," indicating at least one resident requires or expected dining services that aren't available. While this appears to be an outlier among largely positive comments, it is a clear factual point: the community may not provide meal service or full dining options. Prospective residents who require dining support or rely on on-site meal programs should verify available services and how meals are handled.

    In summary, the reviews paint Blaine Courts as a well-kept, attractive community with a strong, resident-focused staff and an active social environment. Management visibility and supportive operational teams are highlighted as distinguishing strengths. The primary caveat to investigate further is dining and whether the community's services align with individual care or meal needs. For anyone considering Blaine Courts, these reviews suggest it is worth a visit to meet staff, see activity programming, view apartment sizes, and confirm service details (especially meal options and any specific care requirements).

    About Blaine Courts

    Blaine Courts sits in Blaine, Minnesota, and offers senior living options like independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home care, and short-term respite care, so folks don't have to move again if their needs change, and what sets the place apart is that it's more like a house with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a big family room, a bonus room for an office or exercise, quartz countertops in the kitchen, fresh paint, new appliances, and shiny, refinished hardwood floors, and you get a two-car garage plus a storage shed out back for keeping things. City water and city sewer are included, and the home has central air conditioning and forced air heating powered by natural gas, so it stays comfortable year-round. Blaine Courts helps with services like mortgage pre-approval, home valuation, market analysis, real estate sales, property management, and has ties with Chandler Place and Waterford for different kinds of living, so everyone can find what they need as they age. Daily help is easy to get, with staff on hand for things like medication, meals, personal care, and housekeeping, and those who live more independently can use services only when they want, which keeps things flexible. Memory care offers safe spaces, 24-hour support, help with Alzheimer's or dementia, and special programs to keep minds active, and there're big nursing services for people who need medical help, rehab, or wound care, and folks who want an active lifestyle can join social events or enjoy the maintenance-free life. Smaller care homes are also on the property for people wanting a quiet setting with few other residents, and all in all, Blaine Courts gives a steady, solid place for seniors who want support-whether that's a little or a lot-without too many frills or fuss.
