Mason City Assisted Living / Senior Living Options

Do you need help with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing and meal preparation? Do you enjoy time spent with friends? Do you still want to get out and enjoy the River City? If you answered yes, to one or more of these questions, then a Mason City assisted living facility may be the answer for you.

Mason City continues to be very proud of its homegrown son, Meredith Willson. In fact, many attractions in Mason City are based on his famous musical Music Man. Of course, why wouldn’t it be? Most of the Music Man is based on Mason City, Iowa. Visitors to the downtown area are welcome to tour Mrs. Paroo’s front porch, Madison Park and the Pleez-All pool hall. Visitors are also welcome to tour the Meredith Willson family home, where as a young boy, Meredith would sing in the evening as his mother played the piano. At the nearby museum, Mason City assisted living facility residents enjoy seeing a replica of his California studio, including the actual piano where many of his famous compositions were created. The whole experience will definitely having you singing the words to 76 trombones.

Willson was not the only famous person to have lived in Mason City. The older residents of Mason City, Iowa, will be glad to tell you about Frank Lloyd Wright’s time spent in Mason City while he created the Stockman’s House. While Wright will always be best known for the homes that he built for wealthy clients, Wright had a real heart for the common man. This started the building of the Prairie School buildings of which this is a prime example. The home is open for tours as is the new Prairie School Architecture Interpretative Center. The residents of Mason City, Iowa, assisted living centers also enjoy telling about the building of the historic Park Inn Hotel, the only hotel in America designed entirely by Frank Lloyd Wright. Both the downtown streetscape project and the hotel have won numerous awards including the prestigious Main Street Iowa award.

Mason City assisted living facility residents also enjoy visiting the MacNider Art Museum. The museum houses a special collection of Bil Baird marionettes. The most famous of these marionettes were used in The Sound of Music. Similar marionettes from the collection fetched $11,000 at auction in New York.

Mason City is a great place for our assisted living facility residents to call home. The residents pay an average of $2,500 a month, well below the national average. AssistedSeniorLiving will be glad to answer all your questions about staying in an assisted living facility in Mason City, Iowa.
