The Best Communities in Troy, MI

"The rooms are kept clean, no smells in the community. Food is excellent. They try to please by communicating with the residents about their needs and wishes. Staff is unhappy due to shortage of personnel but care has always been available."

"Thanks to Caring.com, we got connected to Chester Street. Both of our parents now reside at Chester Street and it was an amazing fit for their health conditions. From the first visit, to the enrollment, to the first day moving in to going care, top notch total experience. One of the difference makers for us is how this is a one-stop shop for all of the care and life needs with a seamless process with the ownership and staff. They handle so many things to make every aspect of the experience as comfortable as possible for our parents and for us helping to navigating all of the administration. I would recommend Chester Street and the Team 10 out of 10 times."

"The team at Sterling Elder Care is truly top-notch. From the very beginning, they took every necessary step to ensure my father's care needs were consistently and compassionately met. Their clear communication and warm, professional approach made us feel like part of their extended family. The home was always clean and well maintained, creating a comforting and respectful environment. I’m incredibly grateful we found Sterling Elder Care—it made the transition from rehab to hospice a smoother, more reassuring experience, knowing my father was receiving such excellent care."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"The thing I like best about American House Sterling Woods is the people. Everyone here is so nice, the staff and residents. I'm a picky eater, and I'm on a special diet, I'm supposed to have low salt and things like that, so the food is good. I put my garbage outside and it seems like it's only out there for an hour or two and then it's picked up. Everything is clean. I can see them always vacuuming and wiping things down. Every night is a game night of some sort like bingo We took a trip to the casino last week. There are some religious activities. But I'm not a person who likes a lot of activities. I like being by myself, I like reading, and I like doing jigsaw puzzles and things like that. I love my room though. It's 900 square feet, but it feels a lot larger. It's very well put together."

"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 staff was so friendly and helpful during the search & move-in process. They answered my countless questions, and has so much patience with my grandparents as they navigated this change. They are very responsive, and maintain the building so well for the residents. Now that my grandparents are all settled, we are so happy with the facility, staff and all of the amenities!"

"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."
