About Holiday Genesee Gardens
Genesee Gardens delivers a fulfilling independent lifestyle at its senior living community in Flint, Michigan. Stroll through the expansive green spaces on the paved walking paths that surround the community. Open and airy indoor common areas make it easy for residents to enjoy their favorite activities, whether it’s indulging in self care at the on-site salon, taking a fitness class, or unwinding with a good book in the library. Dedicated caregivers are available to provide emergency response services around the clock. The community has a variety of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans to choose from that feature kitchenettes, walk-in tubs, and individually controlled heating and air conditioning. Residents can delight in amenities such as three chef-inspired meals served daily, complimentary scheduled transportation, and weekly housekeeping. The area offers ample shopping to satisfy all tastes and budgets at Genesee Valley Center, Oak Brook Square, and Valley Plaza. Nearby dining ranges from pizza, barbecue, and Italian cuisine to diner-style eats. Popular nearby attractions include the Flint Institute of Arts, The Capitol Theatre, and Wilderness Trails Zoo. Top-notch medical care is less than 10 miles away at Hurley Medical Center, and Bishop International Airport is about a 10-minute drive from the community. To help reduce waste, save on postage, and avoid the risk of delays and late fees, Holiday residents can make secure online payments automatically each month. The Office Manager at the community of your choice can help you sign up upon move-in. Related articles: Assisted Living vs. Independent Living: What’s the Difference?

CriticalDisappointed
Holiday Gardens not as good as we thought. Mom is on 3rd floor elevator broken most of time. Too many fires to suit me. Kitchen fire few weeks back. Also no security at night. Whole building full of seniors left to fend for themselves. We are thinking of going somewhere else.

PositiveWonderful for seniors who need some assistance. But we were looking for independent living where we could transition into senior care later in life. The apartments offered have virtually no kitchen and are very small. Super friendly staff, food is fairly good, but my diet would require my own food prep. Not pleased being on Linden Rd. Nice and clean, lots of activities.

PositiveMom's Experience
Overall experience has been great. Cleanliness appears good. Staff are friendly and helpful. Mom doesn't get care from the staff. We provide it. She said the food is ok most of time. The place offers a variety of activities all week long which is good, . We are pleased with the value for what she is getting. Would recommend it to others.
