Margaret's Meadows in Remus, MI
4.8 / 5.0

The owner is very nice and kind. This is a nice small place for your loved one if this is what you are looking for. It is quiet and it is a lovely small place to look into. I would recommend this community for you or your loved one. So far so good, it took a while for my loved one to transition but now things are going well. They have a wonderful pastor that comes and visits the residents which I love.
