I have lived here for 6 years and can't say enough about the Elite Lodge. Since we're small, there is a wonderful sense of community. Everyone knows your name. The grounds are beautiful and there are lots of activities.

I have lived at the ELOA for 5+ years. I enjoy the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff and my fellow residents. The location is phenomenal. The number of activities is amazing. I like playing pool. There are 3 pool tournaments every month, one for men, one for women and a Co-ed tournament in which the partners are selected by a blind draw. The courtyard is beautiful with old growth trees and privacy from the street. It it great having two physical therapists and an occupational therapist on site. You really have to tour this place to understand what a great place to live it is.

I spent a year looking for just the right space. Looked at all the newer homes in the burbs but nothing held my interest until I drove by the lodge, there were so many trees and lovely grounds. Told my kids that it looked like Girl Scout camp. They were a little hesitant but they both set up appointments with Dirk, and concluded that all was well. I dropped in with no appointment just so I could 'catch' any problems. Every single time there was someone I could speak to at the office and better yet there were members going to different activities or coming up from the underground parking lots after shopping. I wanted to choose where I lived while I was still active and not force somebody else to decide. I hear over and over that the Lodge is known for its family spirit, and I agree. I think I have learned more from these 'old folks' then I have in the last 10 years. So call Dirk for an appt and talk to any of us that are coming and going. You won't be disappointed

Nothing but amazing things to say about Elite Lodge or Ashworth. My mother has been staying there for 8 years now. The new management came in and while we were all nervous about the changes that will occur, they have been nothing but spectacular. The facility has gotten an uplift and this new ownership really does care about its staff and members!

Choosing a ILF for our uncle was not an easy decision. We wanted to make sure he was well taken care of. We decided to give Elite Lodge of Ashworth a shot and it has been the best decision we have made. My uncle feels like he is on vacation. The atmosphere is energetic, the staff are kind and caring, and there are always plenty of activities going on. If you are looking for a safe and fun place for your loved ones, I would highly recommend Elite Lodge of Ashworth.

I came to the Lodge 10 years ago after looking at 8 other places in Des Moines. I kept coming back to the Lodge & finally committed in August 2013. I owned a townhome in Ankeny & decided to sell after my husband passed away in 2010. I no longer wanted the responsibility of a home by myself. I've not regretted the move. I like many of the amenities that are offered-weekly housekeeping, one meal a day, underground parking, exercise classes, movies, Friday Frolics, weekly scheduled activities, most of all the friendly residents & helpful staff. It has a homey atmosphere.
