The Best Independent Living Communities in Midland County, MI

"I visited Riverside Place Senior Citizen, and it's very nice. Dad would have gotten a little efficiency apartment, which I liked. They don't have a stove, and he would have a problem with something being on the stove, but a nice little kitchenette, living room, and a bedroom. I think that would have been a real nice setting for him, but he was acting out a little bit, and they don't take people who do that. It's a very nice setting right downtown. It's right on the river. The food was pretty good. They used frozen vegetables, which I don't like. I had lunch, and there were several courses. It's very inexpensive because it's subsidized by Dow Chemical and some other companies. The staff was very nice. They only have 17 spots for supportive care. Then they have assisted living, and there is a waiting list for those spots. "

"Colonial Villa was really nice. My mother-in-law is in her own apartment. It doesn't feel like an assisted living place or a hospital. The staff is wonderful. The dining room is really nice. She sometimes likes the food, and sometimes she doesn't. They have all kinds of activities there. They do aerobics, they go out to the movies, and they have a travel day once a month where they do activities that surround that region. They might make pottery and they'll have a dinner that's prepared for them by a chef of that particular region."

"I really like the staff at New Hope Valley., They are always there for you. They will do anything to make you happy. The food is really good here. It is beautiful here. I especially like the waterfalls. The people who live here are fun. We enjoy our activities together. My family likes it here too. They enjoy visiting. And they don't have to worry about me. They know that I am safe here. "

"I am currently staying at McBrite Manor, and I think it is excellent. It is more like a home. I have one room and it didn't have any bedroom, but it fits all of my belongings. Everything is fine and I think they have a very good work attitude including the dining staff, the workings that makes your bed and stuff. They are all very nice. The food is very good and we have several different choices. The dining room and the sitting arrangement are fine and they have plenty of help to serve the food. They have plenty of things for people to do like bingo, but I don’t go to them because I go out and I am usually gone when they do that. "

"My wife and I have lived at New Hope Bay for 2 years. We truly call this home! The staff is so friendly and hard working. The food has been one of the best parts, my wife loves the fact she does not have to cook anymore. Though there have been a few minor issues which you would expect the management took care of them right away. If you are looking for a community that really cares about its residents this is the place you need to be. "

"The facility has just gone through a beautiful renovation. It is lovely and so comfortable for the residents, The rooms are so comfortable having their own bathrooms and little kitchen areas. I did not eat there, but the food always smelled delicious and I know they gave the residents what they wanted and special treats. The staff were all so wonderful and caring to my sister-in-law while she was there. She was not always easy to care for, but they stayed on top of her needs. The had fun and creative activities for the residence, from music, doing their nails, tea parties, happy hour, and special crafts for holidays. There are outdoor places to sit and the staff often will have special activities or treats outdoors. Mt. Pleasant is a nice town with many restaurants and activities with the college right there."

"My mother is at The Brook of Gladwin. It's a community housing with the standard amenities. They get meals in the dining rooms, and they have elective activities for them. The staff provides assistance with bathing and getting her out of bed. I talked extensively with the administrator, and I have a really comfortable feeling that she manages things well. The staff morale is good, and they're patient. They take care of the patients, they understand what their duties are, and they're professional. They do what needs to be done, but they're truly kind. They treat patients with respect and not all of those kinds of organizations perform that well. I'm very comfortable with how The Brook is doing. Her room is kind of a suite. They have meetings where they sing songs together and have stretching exercises for everybody. They have bingo and card playing. They have a beauty salon."
