"Grandhaven Manor (Grandhaven Living Center) was a three-story retirement community, and it had more people who were self-sufficient. It was beautiful. Across the street, there was more of a semi-assisted and memory care. It was fine, but there were other things that I appreciate about where she's at now. When my mother was in Grandhaven Manor, it was nice at the time what they provided, but she needed more help, and that's why we moved her to the other facility. The rooms were nice. They were like one-bedroom rooms, and they had a separate bedroom. They were nice, clean, and great. In the retirement community, the food was very good, home-cooked meals. Across the street, I ate one time when we were looking at them. It was nutritious and good. "

"I went to New Haven Foster Care. The rooms were good sized. I liked that it was homey. It felt like you were in a house, although it had lots of bedrooms. They had a common area. Someone could stay in their room and not feel cramped and they could come out to the common area as they wished. The place was neat. The residents were watching TV. There weren't any planned activities going on. The staff person when I was there was pleasant and delightful, answered all my questions and told me things I didn't know I needed to know. The dining area was homey. It had a nice big table for group meals. The facility was well laid out. There were some larger rooms and some smaller rooms, and the price reflected the size of the room. Even the small rooms were pleasant and big enough. I wouldn't mind staying in the small room. I could spend some time in my room and be happy. They have a big backyard. You could have a TV in your room. There's not a salon, but they have people come in to provide those services. They didn't provide transportation for anything. That's the responsibility of the family."

"We were kind of leaning toward Bickford of West Lansing before we found the other place. But the other one was better in our price range and the rooms were a little bigger. We had the brochures, and we walked around the building. With Covid, we didn't really go in, we just looked through windows. I think we looked at both assisted living and memory care. The memory care was super tiny. The man we spoke with was very nice, knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating. It was the price range and the size of the room that made the difference. We just kind of peeked into the windows. We kind of could look into the great room that they had and it was really pretty. They had a Christmas tree, and it looked very clean and well kept. From what we could see through the windows, everything looked clean and neat."

"My wife is at The Woodlands of DeWitt. The facility itself is very new, modern, clean, and nice. It doesn't smell and it's run very well. There's a good staff and it's managed well. They're attentive to the residents. They take care of their needs. They're compassionate and they do their jobs pretty well. The food is OK. She is a vegan so she has a special diet and they've gone the extra mile to make sure she gets a vegan diet with no meat and most of it is pretty good. They play bingo and card games, they have movies, and they have swimming available, although she doesn't participate in that. They have quite a few activities all day, every day except weekends. Every weekday from probably 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., they have activities every hour to an hour and a half. It's very expensive, but compared to others, it's not that much different. It's less expensive than some and more expensive than some. Her apartment has almost three rooms. It's got a living room, a bedroom, and then sort of an entryway room that's pretty good sized, and then it has a huge bathroom. All the bathrooms are handicapped accessible because a number of their people require physical help and are in wheelchairs and stuff like that. The rooms, the building, and the property are very attractive, very nice, and well-maintained inside and out."

"I went to Independence Village of Grand Ledge. It's the one I liked the best. With COVID, you can't go to the facility. I saw one apartment, it was very good. There are a lot of people out front socializing and getting together in groups, which I thought was nice. I saw the independent apartments and it was very nice. It had a bedroom, plenty of storage, a nice kitchen, and a nice-sized living room. It's out in the country, so it's very nice. It's not overly convenient, but it's not out in the boonies either, so it's OK. The staff member was very nice, very pleasant, and very impressive. She was very helpful. They gave me a takeaway lunch, which was very good."

"Pleasant Manor is very nice and clean, and the employees are very nice. They provide very good service and they're all very nice. The food and dining area is all good. We play games like cards, dominoes and such, and watch television. I have a very nice one-bedroom apartment with adequate closet and dresser. Everything is good here, and the layout is very nice."

"My dad loved The Cortland Howell. He liked how it was set up. He liked how everyone was able to come into a little area and watch TV and gab and whatnot. The only downfall is when I originally asked the question, "Does insurance pay for it?" I was never given an answer. This is a privately owned company that does not take insurance, so it was going to cost me almost four grand without the nurses involved, which is something that my father cannot afford by any means, even on a GM retirement plan. It looked like it was a good facility. The staff was very friendly. He did a good job of showing us different apartments and stuff like that. It's very clean and taken care of. The size of the studio was good."

"We are currently waiting for an opening at Vista Grande Villa for my mother-in-law. We chose this place because of its convenience and variety. The staff members were very good. There were three different restaurants. They had a lot of activities. They had an in-house lab, a library, and a grocery store."

"My mother is at the Willows, and it is working out very well for her. It is a new facility. It is small. I meet the staff every day. They are perfect, and we have no complaints whatsoever. The rooms and the dining area are excellent and very nice. I have had several meals there, and the food is good. They have a chef, and they have lots of choices. They have activities, but my mother didn't participate in a lot. It is in a nice location with woods surrounding it. I will recommend them. They work very well with the residents and the family. "

"My mother-in-law is in the Safe Haven Assisted Living. The staff is excellent, the cleanliness is good, it's very roomy, the hallways wide and the rooms are large. They've started doing more activities. She moved in since the pandemic started and so a lot of activities were curtailed. But they have some activities. I know Mom did painting, mostly she does embroideries and reads and plays music and stuff like that. But the house is lovely, I think anyone would be happy to be there. I'd like my brother to be there, but it's an all-female facility. Mother sometimes complains that they have too much tomato stuff but the food always looks and smells good, and they cook it up fresh every day."

"The quality is excellent and the staff is excellent. The food is really good. The house is in excellent shape and is well taken care of. "
