River South sits in Grand Rapids, MN, where you get to pick from spacious one or two-bedroom homes with options like 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartments around 599 square feet, and you can find a variety of floor plans if you're looking for something specific. You'll see lots of trees and greenery outside, with walking paths and parks nearby, plus the river close enough to enjoy the view. Some apartments have nice views of the lake and you can find picnic spots and barbecue grills out in the open, with bicycle racks for folks who want to ride around. River South includes things like soft water, all utilities in the rent, cable, laundry facilities, and free internet up to 100 MBPS, so you don't have to set those up on your own, and the buildings have controlled access for security. Rent for a one-bedroom starts at $599, though some units go higher, between $755 and $975 when available, but sometimes units are already rented and not open.
This community is for adults 55 and older, with assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and independent living options, so different care needs are met. Senior apartments here have a resident support program, which tries to connect people with services and opportunities that might help with daily life or health. On-site management and 24-hour emergency maintenance mean there's always someone around if something goes wrong, plus there's a resident portal so people can get information or help online, and staff have their own portal, too.
Pets are allowed, so people can bring cats, dogs, fish, and birds, though no caged animals except those listed, which makes it easier for folks who don't want to give up their longtime companions. Residents can walk to shops, restaurants, or downtown if they feel like getting out, and there's a café, pharmacy, physician's office, and places to worship close by, with four parks, six pharmacies, ten doctors' offices, and a hospital nearby if anyone needs health services quick. Three photos on site show the landscaping with water, trees, and the outdoors, which give a good sense of what the grounds look like. The leasing office at 501 River Road SE is open Mondays and Wednesdays from 8:30 to 4:30, but closed on other days, so getting in touch is best during those hours. With support programs, included utilities, and a pet-friendly setup in a green space near the river, River South tries to balance comfort, care, and some small joys for its residents, though finding an available unit might depend on the timing.
