PositiveReview for Independence Village of Traverse City
Independence Village has been wonderful in working with us. Bro-in-law signed contract on 5/5 to move in later in the month. He fell and broke his leg on [date removed].

CriticalOur family's experience
It's a nice place for those who need a little or no assistance but not for someone who needs a lot of help and for someone who's too stubborn to ask for help. My 96 year old mother-in-law doesn't participate in activities because she doesn't want to bother staff to get her there, even though we're paying a lot of money for Corso services. She just sits in a wheelchair in her apartment all day. She doesn't go to the dining room mainly because she sits there all by herself for a long time before being served. Doesn't…
