at Independence Village of Traverse City

I have been going through the lengthy process of finding a place my dad is comfortable with and am so pleased with Independence Village so far. Extremely responsive to my initial inquiry, and quickly got me in for a tour and spent a lot of time with me. I tried to be up front that this is going to take a long time and not be a quick process, and Jay could not be more patient and understanding, sending helpful info and following up, but also never pushing. Just being available and informative. I really hope that this is where my dad chooses because I have had nothing but wonderful, warm, human-focused communication and follow-up. Plus, the place just looks perfect, the amenities and services are incredible...I'll put myself on the waitlist when I'm of age!!

Independent Village Traverse City, and it’s truly special. The team cares deeply and it shows in how we serve our residents every day.

I would rate Independence Village 5 stars!! Staff is friendly & helpful, even if it's not their dept. My apartment is a large 2 bed, 2 bath & is beautiful. Very clean & fresh. Very happy here.

I have been a resident of Independence Village in Traverse City for four months. It's a beautiful facility, classically designed with a variety of apartments. Three meals daily are served with regular choices and alternate choices. Food is usually quite good, but not always! The apartments are clean and neat and freshly painted when you moved in. Everything is taken care of for you, so the only real expense you have is rent. Assistance is offered through Coresocare on an as needed basis, and for additional cost. So it's perfect for anyone who lives independently and doesn't want nursing home care or assisted living care. The assistance here is not nursing staff but are caregivers. Everyone here is kind and helpful and generous. This is pretty much a new staff. There are Issues in the past that they are working to resolve and seem to be making progress.

My mom was looking for a new community where she could feel safe and enjoy common interest in activities with people her age. Independence village has been just the right environment for her. The staff are always very warm and kind. The best part is that the residence are always happy and doing activities together. It often feels like a dormitory of teenagers with all the activities and the laughter that goes on at all hours of the day or night. I’m also impressed with the activities that are offered and my mom has enjoyed participating in new things. It has been a wonderful place for her.

I have been super impressed with Independence Village My mom has been cared for by the most compassionate and kind people The staff at Independence Village and Corso Care are attentive, responsible and professional. The newly redone rooms a beautiful, th common areas are clean and very cozy. The activities calendar is full and most times I see residents out and about enjoying each others company and the facilities. The food was super good when we toured a few times. Breakfast and lunch seem to hit the mark but dinner is more of sandwiches and is my moms least enjoyable meal. If issues arise, the management team is very responsive. My only complaint is that it is super hot in my mom’s room but apparently the older units are being replaced. This is a hard transition from ones personal home to a community style living situation but I would feel confident that Independence Village will be a partner in the transition.

We were very pleased with Independence Village. Nice facility and very nice staff. I would recommend it to people looking for senior living.

I would give the facility a 5 on each category! Absolutely no issues, wonderful staff and a great place for Dad. What we like the most about the community is that the facility is so clean and the food is excellent. The staff really goes out of their way to be kind and friendly.

The facilities are very nice. The staff is friendly and caring. The onsite physical therapy is great. The staff works hard to provide a variety of activities, outings, and social events.

I really enjoy how friendly everyone here is and how they try to include new people. There are so many activities that it is hard to get moved in. I also am so that they allow you to have your pets with you.

Wow, what a beautiful community! Staff are loving and caring, food is hot and delicious and the activity calendar is full! I always look forward to visiting this community!!

My husband loves Independence Village. Very clean, exceptional staff, good food.
