As four year residents of the Mayflower Community, we were thrilled with the opportunity to design our own Harwich Terrace patio home, with the capable assistance of Jack Morrison, head of Facilities Management. As a not-for-profit, faith based community, with a sixty year history, residents and staff share a common concern for one another. Together, the Administration and Mayflower Resident Association consult and dialogue to address both ongoing and long range plans for the health and well being of this special community. We appreciate the varied activity schedule and the "eclectic mix" of our resident community, which provides a stimulating living environment. Add in the welcoming offerings of Grinnell College and the progressive mindset of "small town/big ideas" Grinnell and Life is Good!

My wife and I live in a Harwich Terrace condo adjacent to the main campus of the Mayflower Community. Each of us has had a close relative who also lived here, one in an independent living apartment and the other in the Health Center. They both received the best of care anyone could hope for, as well as a wide variety of programs for their interests and well-being. We chose the Mayflower as a place to live in retirement due to it being a neighborhood campus within just a few blocks of downtown Grinnell, with easy access to community events, church, and Grinnell College programs. I cannot imagine a better place for active older adults or those who anticipate needing care amidst a caring community like this. Warren

Judy grew up with a small gold fish pond in her parents yard in Louisville, Ky. She remembers watching and feeding the fish. When we moved to Mayflower in 2000, a water garden was landscaped into the yard of our South Harwich patio home that can be viewed from three rooms in the house. We love it, along with all the rocks weve gathered throughout Iowa to help shape our rock gardens and flowers. We now have fish and toads! Mayflower is the place to be for retirement living. One can enjoy the peace of mind of complete comfort and care. Though independent now, the next leavels of living are but a 1/2 block away. Life here is exciting and never boring. We recommend it.

Hi, Im an 88 year old active member of the Mayflower Community a full continuum of care. Ive lived for over twenty years in my duplex, just one of the many living opportunities. Im also a member of Pfitschs Fishes a water exercise class the meets every day at nearby Grinnell College. With outstanding educational. entertainment and exercise events the College is a great asset to the Mayflower Community. We have the freedom to audit classes and to interact with the college students -also the great mix of the people from all walks of life at The Mayflower leads to interesting interactions every day. Nough said - come join us at The Mayflower Community. Art

We agree with all that has been said about the Mayflower Community by Bob and Dot, Art and Warren. You can keep as busy as you want to be. At times you have to say no because you are too busy. We live in a tri-plex just off campus which we helped to design. It is independent living with a purpose. If in the future we need assisted living it is available. If we need alzheimers care it is available. If we need a nursing home care, the Health center is available. We have told our children that we have taken their decisions away from them as to what care their parents may need as they grow older. We love it here! Jack and Walda
