Most of our neighbors come from practical, hard-working backgrounds, and they’re often surprised to learn how comparable our rates are to the cost of staying at home. Once you factor in groceries, utilities, home maintenance, transportation, and care services, Lincoln Court’s monthly cost usually comes out about the same—or even less.

We’re happy to walk you through it and show you exactly what’s included so there are no surprises.

It’s one of the first things people fall in love with here. Executive Chef Chris has been part of Lincoln Court for 15 years and knows what people actually want to eat—hearty, home-cooked favorites made from scratch. Homemade lasagna is always a hit, and so is Joanne’s chicken noodle soup, a favorite that started as one of our community member’s recipes.

Every month, Chef Chris hosts a food council to hear what everyone’s loving and what they’d like to see next. He’s known for those personal touches that make dining here feel less like a menu and more like a kitchen table with friends.

Yes—up to a point. One of the biggest reasons families choose Lincoln Court is that you can move in completely independent and simply add care as you need it, without having to relocate within the community. Couples especially appreciate that one partner can receive more support while the other remains independent in the same apartment.

If cognitive decline becomes a concern, we’ll help make the transition to our secure Memory Care neighborhood as easy as possible.

Busy, joyful, and a little bit different every day. A full-time Life Enrichment Director keeps the calendar humming with 40–50 activities each week—from walking club, church services, and crafts to bingo, Wii bowling, and group fitness classes.

Neighbors also enjoy regular outings around Idaho Falls, like scenic drives along the river, picnics in local parks, shopping trips, and lunch at favorite restaurants. And for those who love a little extra adventure, there are “High Adventure” trips every month—like sleigh rides in Jackson Hole, Boise State football games, or even an Alaskan cruise every two years.

A favorite community tradition is the annual Mr. & Mrs. Lincoln Court Pageant, where neighbors vote for ambassadors who embody the heart of Lincoln Court. This year’s couple even made the front page of IF Magazine!

Our Memory Care feels like a true family. With room for just 23 people, it’s small enough that everyone is known, engaged, and supported in ways that fit their personality and abilities. Through Stellar’s Apollo Memory Care Program, care is thoughtfully tailored to each individual—focusing on what brings them comfort, purpose, and joy.

A full-time activities director keeps the day active and meaningful, and our dedicated LPN brings more than 30 years of experience. You’ll never see people isolated here—our team rounds everyone up for music, sing-alongs, and small-group activities that spark real connection. Families often tell us the difference is obvious the moment they walk in—it just feels right.

They really do. Many of our team members have been here for decades—Kathy at the front desk for 34 years, Greg in the kitchen for 37, Mindy (our activity director) for 15, and many others for 5-10+.

That kind of longevity means people know each other well, and families notice it right away. You’ll hear laughter in the hallways, see staff joining in activities, and feel that this isn’t just a job for them—it’s a calling.

Yes! Lincoln Court has been thoughtfully refreshed to keep things comfortable and bright. Apartments feature new carpet, paint, and cabinets, and both the lobby and dining room are being updated with warm, welcoming finishes. Even though Lincoln Court has been part of Idaho Falls for decades, it feels fresh and beautifully cared for.

Lincoln Court is tucked away on Lincoln Drive in a quiet Idaho Falls neighborhood—just minutes from shopping, restaurants, and medical centers. It’s close to everything, but away from the noise, with peaceful courtyards and tree-lined streets that make it feel like home.
