It was the one that had the most available activities and amenities that my mother-in-law would take advantage of. I would recommend it if it was financially feasible for them.

My mother was a resident of over 10 years until her death in 2021. She lived independently and was extremely happy. She liked and enjoyed the staff and participated in many activities; very welcoming community. Currently, my mother-in law has been a resident for over 10 years - very comfortable, satisfied with everything.

My mom has been at IW for almost 10 years. Up until recently, she has needed very little assistance. However, a fall and a couple of other health problems have brought a need for some assistance. All staff has been wonderful. My mom is happy and safe.

about Independence Village of Petoskey

Independence Village of Petoskey offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Independence Village of Petoskey 9.8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
