At Black Hawk, we don’t just provide assisted living — we offer personalized care plans that adapt as your needs change. From independent living to memory support, every service is designed to preserve dignity, joy, and independence.
From private rooms with full bathrooms to on-staff RNs managing complex medications — we meet each resident exactly where they are, and grow with them.

Pet-Friendly →Every resident has a private bedroom with a full private bathroom — a fundamental dignity not all facilities can offer. Rooms are bright, spacious, and furnished by you — with large windows overlooking downtown Fort Atkinson or our hidden garden.
Our trained staff provide compassionate assistance with daily personal care: bathing, dressing, grooming, mobility. But more than that — we know your story, your favorite song, your morning coffee order. That personal touch makes all the difference.
We offer structured, compassionate memory care in a safe, non-locked environment for non-aggressive seniors with dementia or Alzheimer’s. Our focus is on preserving identity, reducing anxiety, and fostering social connection at every level of functioning.
Activities are tailored to individual abilities — from music therapy and reminiscence groups to gentle movement and sensory engagement. Families report profound peace knowing their loved one is understood, respected, and joyful.

I have a family member living at Black Hawk, and when I heard about the negative reviews I had to speak up. This place is great. There's nothing wrong with it. Is it better with the new manager? Yes. We are even happier now. But it was just fine before and we were all happy with both the care and facilities. It's honestly a great place, and beware fake reviews.Posted on Google Lara LighthartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m looking at the strange reviews of Blackhawk, and it feels like there’s a personal beef or something going on, because my aunt has lived there for awhile now and we have always been satisfied with her care. I agree that since the new manager came on board, the difference (for the better) has been noticeable. Meals are really good, and the staff seem more motivated. Bottom line: it’s always been good, now it’s way better, and my aunt is really happy there.Posted on Google C ChapTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My mother has been living at Black Hawk for a little while now, and I can honestly say we couldn’t be happier with the changes we’ve seen recently. Since the new manager came on board, the improvements have been noticeable — especially in the kitchen and in the overall quality of resident care. Meals are much better, with more variety and attention to what residents actually enjoy. The staff also seem more engaged and attentive, which gives me peace of mind knowing my mom is well cared for. Most importantly, my mom really likes it here — she feels comfortable, respected, and part of a community. I’m grateful to see her happy and thriving, and I would absolutely recommend Black Hawk Senior Residence to other families looking for a supportive and well-managed senior living community.
Nothing we write here compares to walking through the door — smelling breakfast being made, meeting the staff who know every resident by name.
