The Best Independent Living Communities in Sanilac County, MI

"When I had to move I saw Blue Water Lodge and knew this was were I wanted to live. The food has been fantastic lately. I’m enjoying all of the activities and do as much as I can. I used to write a journal everyday, but I’m so busy I don’t have time anymore. The grounds are kept so beautifully, I have to say that I don’t even miss my house. The staff is there to help. All you have to do is ask once and it’s taken care of. The staff is fantastic."

"I'm enjoying Porthaven Manor. Everybody who I've talked to has been absolutely wonderful, nice, and very helpful, so I'm really happy about the staff. They do laundry and serve one meal a day, but I mainly do my own cooking. The place is very clean. The value is very good."

"My sister-in-law moved to The Heartlands. What I like best is they really worked with me. I had them over from Ohio to Michigan, and they were really very helpful in helping me understand what needs to happen, and how it needs to go. They were very upfront and direct about what they needed and it was really good. Usually, they do an initial assessment in person, but because she was in assisted living in Ohio, they did a Zoom call with her. I was impressed by their customer service. Her apartment is fairly new. The whole place is only two years old. It's great. I would call it about a room and a half. They have all kinds of things that they work with, what they need, and what they can do. They have a cook on site and she's the head of the kitchen. My sister-in-law has been very impressed with the food. They try to get you moving as much as you can. They're trying to get her as capable as she can be without pushing her too hard, so that's been good, too. She could eat all the food some days. So it's good food inside. They have an activity director there that is really active."

"I had a relative and dear family friend stay here. What a beautiful home! The staff is very knowledgeable and caring! It’s such a comfortable and safe place. We loved the owners, they are very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. My family member was treated like they were their own family members. The bedroom she had was beautiful with a small koi pond under her window. The interaction with the other residents is priceless! Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone!"

"Northwood Meadows was beautiful, everything there was very nice, but they did not have any rooms. The staff was very knowledgeable. Everything was clean and well maintained."

"The Village of Lake Huron Woods is very, very nice. They have their own bus. They were friendly, compassionate, and caring. They make sure that you just don't sit in your apartment all day and that you go out and take part in their activities. Also, if you're not up to cooking any of your meals, you can go down to the dining room, and they will make a full, beautiful, good meal. They had someone come in and play the piano. They were warm, very hospitable, and welcoming. They made sure you also had a good time while you were there. We had a dessert. You could have coffee or tea, too. It was homey. The place was very well kept and clean."
