CriticalI would recommend it to others. Hi the community you choose is basically about getting involved with your neighbors and finding connections with them. The food , the care, the mgmt, the cleaning are all equal. How willing are you as a resident to be able to do this is the key.
Response from the communityThank you for your thoughtful perspective! We’re so glad you would recommend our community. You’re absolutely right—building connections and getting involved plays such an important role in the overall experience. We’re proud to provide strong support across dining, care, management, and housekeeping, and it’s wonderful to hear how those pieces come together when residents engage and connect. We truly appreciate you sharing this!

CriticalVery poor experience, I would not recommend anyone to this facility. Too many to name. Start by false statement of food care and management. Basically our family had to be there 24/7. Quality of care terrible all the way around.
Response from the communityWe’re truly sorry to read about your experience and that you feel so disappointed. That is never the impression or level of care we want any family to have. Concerns about food, communication, management, and overall quality of care are very serious, and we regret that you felt the need to be present constantly to ensure your loved one’s needs were met. Your feedback matters, and we would welcome the opportunity to better understand the specifics of your concerns so they can be reviewed appropriately. We are committed to learning and improving, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective.

PositiveShe states the food is adequate, but she does not leave the dinner table hungry. Very tired of green beans and chicken. For the most part, the staff seems very friendly. I don't like the fact that I don't get receipts when I pay the bill. She likes it and that's what manners.
Response from the communityThank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear she’s enjoying her time here and not leaving meals hungry. We appreciate your honesty about the menu variety and billing process—both are areas we’ll review closely. It’s also great to know our team has made a positive impression. Your input helps us continue to improve, and we’re grateful she feels at home here.

PositiveWhat stood out most is The price is very good. The facility is newer and clean. The only negative thing is that calling them and actually getting someone to answer if almost impossible.

PositiveWe checked out several facilities in the Grand Rapids area. Cortland Riverside Gardens was unquestionably the nicest of them all. It’s in a quiet residential area a short distance from a beautiful park. The rooms were larger by far than other facilities, allowing my mom to keep most of her belongings. Every room has a kitchenette and a TV. There are plenty of comfortable common areas. The director, Joy, made the transition easy for us and we have peace of mind with our whole experience.
Response from the communityDear Susan, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on our community at Riverside Gardens. We are thankful you've entrusted the care of your Mom with our staff and team! We wish you both all the best! Sincerely.
