Moving here was the best choice I have made

I have only lived here for a few months, but I was welcome by everyone. The apartments are huge and clean. You have everything you need. They have bus services to where you need to go. You are on Gratiot where you are close to Meijer, Dollar Tree, Dollar General, and so many other conveniences. Moving here was the best choice I have made.

Swanhaven has been my home now for 7 years. I love my apartment! I enjoy activities. I appreciate the effort our activities coordinator puts in to make it fun to live here. The office girls work together keep Swanhaven a comfortable and safe place to live. The custodial and maintenance staff work hard to keep the building clean and well-maintained. I thank them all for treating me like family!

Love it

We love the full kitchen and the option of purchasing a meal from the restaurant. Staff is friendly. Grounds and building are beautiful. I like the option to walk the grounds and the various activities and its affordable.

Review for Swanhaven Manor

Grandma has gotten her independence back and her own space. She is cooking, cleaning, hosting guests for dinner and going to events that Swanhaven has like bingo, music, cards, etc. at [age removed] that is impressive because for two years she was living with family and not wanting to do anything. Grandma has not decorated for a holiday in a very long time and she put up a tree and had door decorations for Christmas. She also wanted Easter decorations to set out so we helped her get those. The people around her encourage her to want to do these things because they are all doing them and having fun. Now does she still talk about her house she lived in for years - of course and does she wish she could go "home" yes but that's not an option so this is a safe and healthy environment where there are people who genuinely check in on her and she can live independently but 5 minutes from my mom (not 3 hours which is where her home is). If you did not get my response to the survey thing send me another link because I did delete it after I thought I submitted it.

I am so glad I found Swan Haven Manor. The staff here is always wanting to help in any wat they can, no matter what issues you have, problems and questions. Our maintenance staff is very efficient and I can fix anything promptly and always friendly. And housekeeping staff does a great job of keeping our beautiful come here in tip top shape. Very clean and tidy. Our cook does a super job cooking our meals. Our activities director plans lots of fun things to do.

Overall nice community. Would recommend.

We live in different states, so extremely limited contact. I liked that holiday meals were available for purchase. My Mom didn't leave her room. Any negative experience was her fault.

Swanhaven manor review

They are so organized & helpful. If you need anything they are quick to help. If you have a problem our maintenance guys are the best. Our custodian does an outstanding job here. Our office gals are always working hard keeping things running smoothly here with all the many things to do concerning all the paperwork etc. I love it here. The staff is very friendly & always ready to help. The food is usually good. I mostly eat in my room. The laundry rooms are clean , there are lots of activities. We have a bus that takes us shopping & to dollar stores, & fruit markets, baseball games, & casinos. Its just wonderful here. I have been here one year last date removed!

Swanhaven Manor Review

The staff at Swanhaven Manor are all very friendly. Areas for improvement- Food- generic, limited variety, small portions. I understand inflation, but still... Activities- limited space availability so often go on a waiting list. Seems like the activity is filled up before the lists are even posted. No good exercise program available, although was part of the sales pitch. The rent increase for 2023 was very reasonable.

Clean, Upbeat, and Well-Kept

I have a dear friend that I visit frequently at Swanhaven. The inside always smells clean and everything always looks very clean. The office and maintenance staff are always friendly and helpful. Whatever is cooking in the kitchen always smells delicious as well. My favorite part of visiting is the people that live there, there are always people visiting in the common areas when you walk in or in the dining room. I will be joining my friend at Swanhaven when I'm ready to move.

Swan Haven Manor

I feel the parking lots are a disaster. Someone is going to fall and get hurt. The back doors going into the parking lots should both have electric door openers. Hard to get in with walkers.
