The 5 Best Independent Living in Hamburg, Michigan

"The director of Brookdale in Brighton couldn’t care less for the residents. She is only interested in decorating. And you had better not tamper with one of her designs. The food is terrible. There is no central air. There is mold growing in the bathrooms. Terrible place to live" - Cathy… Read more

"This place is outstanding! Brenda, Ron, Kristi, and Sarah are the leaders that ensure every resident is treated kindly. The entire staff really cares about the residents and knows everyone's names. The building and common areas are always being cleaned. This place always smells fresh and clean. There is always something to do at Abbey Park at Mill River. There are exercise classes, crafts, games, entertainment, trips, an on-site church, bible studies, movies, etc. You never get bored. The food is amazing and always with great deserts. When I chose Abbey Park for my Dad, I looked at a lot of places - and Abbey Park at Mill River was so much better than the others. They also have visiting doctors, on-site physical therapy, and an on-site assisting staff for any special medical needs. It's a great place to live!" - David… Read more

"Save yourself the heartache and money. It's gone to hell in a handbasket thanks to their director and his entourage. Care director is more interested in her lover than the residents. The front desk person during the week is rude and prospective residents have felt they were "bothering" her. The chef is more interested in how he is praised instead of how the residents feel about the food. Don't let the pretty facility fool you." - F… Read more
