From Historic Hotel
to Loving Home

The Logan family didn't just open a facility — they transformed a piece of Fort Atkinson history into a place where people thrive.

1914
The Black Hawk Hotel opens its doors, becoming a cornerstone of downtown Fort Atkinson — known for fine dining and warm hospitality.
1991
Jack and Sharon Logan transform the historic hotel into Black Hawk Senior Residence — 34 private bedrooms, each with full bathrooms.
Today
Second-generation ownership. Still locally owned. Still the area's most trusted, most awarded assisted living community.

"We care for our residents for the remainder of their lives."

We know you have
questions.

Choosing care for a loved one is one of the biggest decisions of your life. We're here to help you navigate it — honestly.

How much does it cost?

Our monthly rate includes housing, meals, and care — no complicated hourly billing. We accept private pay, Medicaid, and VA benefits. Call us for current private pay rates: (920) 563-1480.

Is memory care available?

Yes. We offer structured, compassionate memory care in a safe, non-locked environment for non-aggressive seniors with dementia or Alzheimer's. Each resident benefits from socialization at every level of functioning.

Can my loved one bring their pet?

Absolutely. Resident cats and birds are welcome, and dogs may visit from home. Pets are family — we believe that too.

What about fall risks?

Our 24-hour awake staff and supervised daily routines significantly reduce fall risk. We also have wheelchair and walker accommodations throughout the building as a State-licensed Class C, N/A facility.

How quickly can someone move in?

Often faster than you'd expect. We guide families step by step through the process and work hard to make transitions as smooth as possible.

Do you accept Medicaid or VA benefits?

Yes. We accept all medically qualified applicants regardless of ability to pay. Contact Jefferson County ADRC at 920-674-8734 for Medicaid, or Jefferson County Veteran Services at 920-674-7240 for VA funding questions.
