3 Best Assisted Living Facilities in Anchorage, AK

Aspen Creek is a home away from home, when you need it the most. The staff was wonderful to work with, always taking time to answer questions. The nurses and care-givers are kind and compassionate, they knew her by name and treated her with respect and dignity. Not only is this place beautiful but the residents have fun outings and activities to attend. Also, this is the cleanest facility I have ever been to. My mother lived there until her passing. I highly recommend Aspen Creek.

This facility is top of the line with the best amenities. It is located in a great area and is very clean, modern but traditional as well and in all the right ways. The food is AMAZING!! The chef is so good and personally serves you. Hot chocolate is made from scratch just like the rest of the food. They have a great staff system with awesome nurses. Aspen Creek also has a spa with manicures and pedicures as well as hair coloring, perming and cutting which is a plus. This facility isn’t just a location for seniors. They bring the community and people into their lives through their programs designed to help their seniors live a full and happy life. Every time I have been there the staff have been friendly and helpful.

Aspen is a wonderful place to be. They have great caregivers that they call Carepartners and amazing office staff. They are very open and easy to talk to. They have activities for the residents on the daily! The awesome activity gals really are great convincing residents to have some fun. Then they even have a memory care that is a locked unit for loved ones suffering from Alzheimer’s & Dementia. The carepartners are specifically trained in taking care of loved ones with dementia and they do such an amazing job. I highly recommend Aspen if you are considering putting your loved one!

My mother has been living at Baxter since 2022. She started in the assisted living side and is now in memory care. The management and caregiving staff have supported her every step of the way. It feels less like a facility and more like a community where residents have the opportunity to get involved and support each other. I was recently at a party in memory care and there were some volunteer residents from the assisted living side who were there to help out. I think the management has done a beautiful job of fostering that kind of caring, supportive environment.

My mom moved into Baxter in 2023. Prior she lived alone and independently. Mom is so happy with the social community, the activities, prepared meals and her own space in a very comfortable one-bedroom apartment. Mom is thriving in the Baxter environment; I wish she would have moved sooner. For me, knowing she is happy, safe, has as much social life as she wants, can partake in daily activities and is eating well, has alleviated so much stress and concern. Thank you, Baxter, for offering a wonderful environment for our aging parents.

Baxter Senior Living is a wonderful place to live! The staff are hard working, friendly, and really seem to care about the residents they work with. Having experience at another Anchorage senior living facility, I can tell you that Baxter is a community-- not an institution. Thank you to General Manager Travis and his team for making (and keeping) Baxter Senior Living a gem for senior care in East Anchorage!
