Assisted Living, Independent Living & Memory Care · Minot, ND

Overview of The View

The View on Elk Drive sits at 2905 Elk Drive in Minot, North Dakota. It runs four kinds of care in one building: assisted living, independent living, memory care, and adult day care. For families, that combination is the practical draw. A resident whose needs shift does not automatically face another move.

The View Inc. operates the community. State records list Amanda Anfinson as the contact. Sixty-one beds, two stories, twelve years in business.

Location is the honest tradeoff here, as the community sits about 2.5 miles out from Minot’s city center, and its Walk Score of 18 tells you what that means on the ground. Errands require a car, and so do most visits. Residents who have stopped driving will lean on the transportation services the community runs.

Inside, the shared spaces lean toward doing things. There’s a fitness center, billiards, a game room, a corner for arts and crafts. Pets come along, too, which matters more than it might sound to someone who has spent a decade with the same dog.

Meals accommodate various diets, so a resident managing a medical restriction gets handled within the regular kitchen rather than as an exception. Wheelchair accessible showers are built in, which supports bathing assistance without stripping away privacy.

What emerges is a community with an established track record and real range in the care it delivers, set in a spot where a car is part of the equation.
