    Spacious peaceful community, highly recommended

    I've lived at Kilkenny for five years and would highly recommend it. The apartment manager (Lisa and the office staff) is attentive, communicates quickly, and goes above and beyond; maintenance fixes are timely and the application process was smooth. Apartments are spacious and easy for family visits, the grounds are park-like and clean, and there are frequent, well-organized activities and holiday meals that my parents loved. Be aware the pet policy is strict - small dogs allowed but declawing and ESA restrictions made it unsuitable for animal lovers. Snow plowing can be slow (often 1-2" left in the lot, contractor hours M-F 9-5), which can affect accessibility, though the manager has been very helpful with upgrades like grab bars. Overall, a peaceful, welcoming place where my family thrived.

    About Kilkenny Court

    Kilkenny Court sits on the south end of Forest Lake, which means residents get to enjoy peaceful grounds with a lot of big old trees around, and even a popular gazebo and a large vegetable garden where folks like to spend time, and you'll find colorful landscaping all over the property. The community offers 92 units, with one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments available, and the buildings have elevators and a controlled-access entrance so people feel safer and get around easier. Kilkenny Court serves seniors age 62 or older and also those who are physically disabled, with income restrictions and both Section 8 and Section 42 housing subsidies, which makes the rent more affordable. The apartments are made for independent living but have options for assisted living, long-term care, rehabilitation, respite stays, plus memory care services for those who need it, and the care staff provide different levels of help depending on what each resident needs. There are handicap-accessible apartments, and the whole place is pet friendly, so small pets are allowed. People can use the big community room for all kinds of optional group activities, like bingo, card games, birthday parties, or potluck meals, and there are two customizable community rooms for other gatherings. Outside, there's an area for grilling and even a playground so grandkids can visit and have a place to play, and the free bus takes residents to downtown and shopping centers once a week, which many folks find handy. Off-street parking is available, along with garages that have remotes, for those who have a car. There's a 24-hour emergency maintenance line, and that's included in the rent, so if anything breaks or someone needs help, they can call at any time. The Kilkenny Court apartments have different floor plans, and the living spaces aim to be both comfortable and convenient, and with elevators, wide halls, and other safety features, most people get around without too much trouble. Each care program at Kilkenny Court uses its own name and specific terms, and staff give care tailored to the needs of each person, whether simple help with daily chores or more involved nursing care is what's required. Residents find community amenities here-like the big rooms, gardens, and scheduled bus-help support a good, active lifestyle without being overwhelming.
