The Best Senior Living Communities in Rochester, MI

"My sister has made a deposit and will be moving into American House Elmwood. The whole place was very clean. We chose it because it offered a very good-sized villa, which is independent living. She would prepare her own meals, so she did not get a meal plan. The staff who assisted us was excellent. They had a hair salon and a meeting room."

"My mother has lived at Flourish Collection (previously Blossom Springs Assisted Living) for the past 4 years. The care she receives after suffering a stroke has been wonderful. The staff treats her like a family member and gives me piece of mind when I can’t be with her. While nothing is perfect, they are always willing to listen and try to correct whatever the problem may be. While I don’t live that close to the community, I wouldn’t move her anywhere else based on the facility and care she receives. I would recommend Flourish Collection to anyone looking for a community for their loved ones."

"I toured the Serene Gardens of Rochester Hills and went to about seven different places, and that's the one that pretty much stuck. I liked the director and thought she was very dedicated and had some good ideas. You could tell that she was a caring person. I liked the whole atmosphere of the facility because it didn't look depressing. I met two of the activity directors there, and they had a lot of energy. You could tell the sincerity and care from them. It's a newer facility. I lived in the area, so I saw it going up. I was impressed with both the outside and the inside. The rooms were nice, large enough, and bright. It was a nice facility."

"We are very fond of Sunrise of Troy and it is within our top 2. It had a very strict Covid protocol where you answer very extensive questions and had to take your temperature. I find that the facility is absolutely beautiful. It is very clean. The facility is located in a busy intersection but it has a lot of nature in the back, so I like that. Everybody we met there was very nice. They have a cat on the memory care side, which I like, and they used to have a dog in assisted living, which I love. I think that's just like a little piece of home for the residents who had animals. They also have lots of activities for their residents. The views of the rooms that we looked at were very pretty, looking out into the courtyard or the trees. The rooms that I saw had a small kitchenette with a built-in fridge, a microwave, and a sink."

"We toured American House The Village. It was a great tour. We get to see a lot of the facilities and the added activities. We liked the people there and the independent units. They were bright, cheerful, spacious, and bigger than what I had expected. The staff did a great job answering our questions and presenting things to us. We went through the dining room and watched people eat, but we didn't eat there. They have a top chef, so I assume the meals are good, and they allow us to have a pet."

"The memory care at American House Freedom Place Rochester is a totally separate building. It was like its own entity, so I liked that aspect of it. It would be perfect for someone who is going for memory care only. Everything about that place was great. They had a crafts room, and they had an exercise bike in the hallway. There was not a whole lot there because it's all memory care, but it's good for that purpose. The layout of the rooms was nice. The staff was super informative, nice, and thorough."

"I liked that American House Stone is just one floor so my mother would not have to deal with any stairs or elevators and the price point was important to us. We were fortunate to be able to eat a meal there and my mother, who is very particular, enjoyed the food. There were a lot of options for her. If she didn't want somebody doing her laundry for her, they said that that was no problem and that she could do her own laundry. So, there were things like that, which made her feel more that she was living independently and not reliant on somebody else for everything, which was important to her. She didn't want to feel like she was giving up total control, and they were very willing to work with her on that. Everybody was very kind to us. This was the second time that some of us had visited there, and they remembered us from a previous visit, which was surprising even to remember the names. So, we're very pleased with how we were treated. They were friendly, helpful, and very kind. They even gave my mother a to-go container of more food, because she liked it so much. The facility was clean, but there were a few things that were dated or wear and tear, but nothing bad. The room that my mother is going to be moving into has a new carpet, new paint, and things like that. There were four of us that they served lunch to, and everyone was very pleased with the food."

"The people at Pine Ridge Villas of Shelby are friendly. The manager is friendly, too. Everyone works together and makes sure that everyone is taken care of. It's a good atmosphere, and the people are caring. My room is a little small, and there is not enough storage for my things. I came from a big house, so it's a challenge. The food is very good, though. The activities they have are day trips, games, exercise, get-togethers, bingo, and parties. It's the best place that I have seen."

"My brother is in Town Village Sterling Heights. It's really good for him. They're very kind, helpful, and very understanding. I think he'll be fine there. Every day, there are activities. There is exercising and water aerobics. They take them out on field trips. They're real good. He's independent with assisted living. The activities are excellent. The food is awesome. We did go to a lot of places, and this was the best fit. They have a bistro there, and he can get food any time of the day. They also have restaurant style dining, so it's really good. We're very pleased. They have a library, a theater, a room where they can watch sports, a puzzle area, and a room for birthday parties. They have musicians coming in, and they have an outside area to go and sit. It's pretty well equipped."

"Brookdale Troy is our top choice for my dad. It has a very inviting atmosphere. It was very clean and intimate, without being too small. Dan, the salesperson, has been wonderful. He just seemed to know what he was doing. In the studio room of the assisted living, we were told that we can bring our own mini fridge and a microwave. They have a courtyard with lots of sitting areas."

"We are in the process of moving Mom into Brookdale Troy. I had been there before and saw my friend's mother there and I thought it was kind of airy and kind of bright looking. I liked what I saw. I went there to see it a couple of times, and it was centrally located. I saw the music thing going on. The layout of the apartment was good. I wish they were a little bit bigger, maybe about two feet bigger, but it is what it is. The bathroom was a good size. We had lunch one day, and it was good. My mom liked it. It was one of her favorite fish. I like the courtyard they have for the memory care area. It was bright. I'm going to bring some of my mom's plants from her home and put them in the courtyard, and I think she'll like that. It's like an atrium. There was seating outside. I've talked to the salespeople and I'm meeting with the nurse tomorrow, but so far everybody that I have met has been helpful. One side is assisted living, and the other side is memory care."

"Baldwin House Senior Living Oakland was clean. It was bright and cheery. The office person went over things well and answered questions well. We were impressed with them. They had ceramic stuff in one room that people were working on. They also have bingo, cards, and dinners out where they take the bus. It all sounded wonderful. The staff was very nice and informative."

"I went here. This was a high-class place. When you walked in, it was elegant. That was like the regular assisted living and such, and then you went into the memory care part, and it was the same as the assisted living with the same set-up building. It was clean, cheerful, and elegant. The staff were very nice. They seemed very attentive. They were great. They seemed to have activities going on, and they're right next to a dog park, which for my mother would interest her. If she couldn't be at the dog park, she would be able to watch the people and their dogs, which is equally as enjoyable. They had it all. They had the gym. They had a nice courtyard. They do activities with them. They've got a weekly sheet of what they do every day, and it seemed to be pretty active. In terms of location, for me, I live in Troy, so it's close. It's a very lively area."
