There are some who dare to dream dreams and make a difference. Among them were Jacob Rummel and Emilie Dow, both whom individually dared to envision the creation within the city of Sioux Falls of a new type of community, one that would serve the needs of those of advancing years. Both embodied their visions in their wills. Dow Rummel, established in 1963, was Sioux Falls first retirement home and is now the premier Life Plan community in the region.

Dow Rummel is a unique senior living community with a wide array of senior living options including independent living, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing. Our community offers an abundance of senior living amenities including a lap pool, massage therapy, salon and spa, workshop, meal delivery, housekeeping services and much more.

Dow Rummel Village is located between West Sioux and North End West in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. We are minutes from downtown where you can find shopping, eateries and activities.
