Recent reviews of Independent Living in Elmer, MI
Covenant Glen of Frankenmuth
5.0

I have just placed my Wife into Covenant Glen in Frankenmuth. The process was quite smooth, but also I needed to be patient, a hard thing for me to do..But the administration & staff at this place is top notch. The Exec. Director & I had spoke on the phone several times, and I also worked with "The Alissa's".. a very good experience. I moved my wife from a failing facility to a much better place with more STUFF & for less money. The monthly fees are very competitive.. I know I've done my homework & have a LTC policy on my wife... I have no reservations about placing wife in the CARE of Covenant Glen.. Thank Goodness for Good People... [Removed]

Terraces at Lake Orion
4.6

So far the community has been good. The community has an open door policy to help socialize with other residents in the afternoon. They interact well with the residents. The food is outstanding. Even during the pandemic they all ate in the dining room. The staff has made great efforts to get to know the residents. The administrative team goes around and talks to the residents each team.

The Oaks at Woodfield in Grand Blanc, MI
5.0

I have had a wonderful experience while having my father at The Oaks. I am at the facility daily, and the staff have all been AMAZING! The nurses and aides are compassionate toward my father and the family, acitivites are offered throughout the entire day, food is great. The residents all seem very happy and staff the same. We heard about this place in the community and have not been disappointed.
