The Best Independent Living Communities in Kalamazoo County, MI

"We moved my father in from a sister facility, after my mother passed. I was lucky that there was a studio apartment available right away. The staff has been great in caring for my father (who is not the easiest person). I am updated on important issues, that i asked for when we moved him in. Maple Lake is a smaller facility, so the care is very one on one. Which is great not only for a resident, but also family members. Dad has said the food at Maple Lake is better than the previous facility, so that is a good thing. I highly recommend Maple Lake to anyone who is looking for quality care for a loved one."

"I visited the assisted living facility of NorthPointe Woods, and it was really good. They have amenities like a beauty salon and a credit union, or whatever banking facility that is. I think they also have a transportation service. They have lots of activities there, too. The area outside has gardens growing vegetables and things that the chef uses. They were accommodating to people. The dining area was open. It had open windows looking over the courtyard, so the lighting was good."

"We did a tour of Heritage Community of Kalamazoo. I liked that the staff was readily available to explain how a continuum of care investment was a good fit for our family. They have a lot of dining options and socially active living for independent living to support long-term care, and for healthier living for as long as possible. I have tried the food and it's very delicious. The place is immaculate."

"We toured Crossroads Village. We liked the friendliness of the people and the helpfulness of the staff. The staff was very professional. The building is very clean and well-maintained. They have libraries, an exercise room, and a large area where you can get coffee or a drink 24 hours a day."

"We chose Spring Manor because of its amenities and my grandmother actually chose this place. They have a movie theater, ice cream shop, a beauty shop, a gym, a barber shop, a library, craft room, and community room. "

"Our tour to Hope Woods Senior Community was a very good experience. There were lots of woods around and it's very well-secluded. It's a smaller facility and it just seemed very nice. There were lots of places to walk the dog and it was very clean and quiet. The manager was wonderful. We had some trouble getting our time together and she just worked with us until we got a time that would work for us both. She was so helpful and so nice. They were going to have a happy hour just as we were leaving, but they also have other things to do. They have therapy, a gym, crafts, card games, bingo three nights a week, and other daily things. They offered a lot. The rooms were nicely laid out, bright, cheerful, and exceptionally very nice. Entryways were also nice. I was just very impressed with the room."

"My mother-in law is a resident at Fountain view, she is very happy and really loves the staff. Ms. White is very professional as well as her staff. They keep us informed on everything that is going on with my mother. We can call and ask them anything at any time and they can tell us. The facility is very clean and clean smelling. They engage the residence in so many activities and invite the families to participate in all festivities. I really appreciate the entire staff. "

"I'm gonna wait for Portage Pines because that's got a washer and dryer in the unit, and it's close to my friends. The staff was very nice. They don't have any food because they're independent. The facility was very good and very clean. The room layout seems to be very good, and the size seems to be extremely adequate. I felt like it could be home."

"My mother will be moving into Calhoun County Medical Care Facility. It seemed updated and pretty. The staff was very nice, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I didn't see anything because of Covid, but they had a hair salon, a library, a podiatrist, a doctor, bingo, and other games. If it wasn't Covid, they'd have the therapy. I don't know what the food is like, but the dining room seemed nice. The room is kind of like the size of a hospital room. Everything seemed clean."
