Ville Ste. Marie Senior Living Community

Mom has been here at Ville Ste. Marie three months and has acclimated well - they are currently on lockdown for Covid ?? It has been the best decision so far.

Looking back, I wish this is the place we would have chosen. Out tour was about 30-45 min. The facility seemed nice and clean. The staff were friendly. And the apartments were a good size.

This has been a great experience. I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. This is a good community for independent living. Weekly housekeeping, the room, two meals a day (breakfast and lunch), shuttle service to and from doctor appointments and grocery shopping, all utilities (except electricity), and satellite tv is included in the monthly rate. The apartment does have a full kitchen, and there are free laundry facilities on each floor of the building for the residents to use. There is the availability to add laundry service, dinners, and meal delivery for an additional charge each month.

I would recommend you check the community out to see if this would be a good fit for your loved one. The people here are friendly. There are two meals, activities, room, transportation, and housekeeping that is included in the monthly fee per month. There are washers and dryers that are available in several areas of the building. Some of the activities that are available are bingo, arts and crafts, music, and more for the residents to choose from.

we toured Ville Ste. Marie and upon first impression it was great, five stars all around. we chose another community that accepted our loved one's pet, as Ville Ste. did not.

This is an excellent retirement community that offers both independent living and assisted living, so that a person can move in independently and then age in peace, without having to even switch apartments! Some other communities in the area do not offer independent living, so you could end up paying for assisted living services that you might not yet need. The residents are very active and happy. The community itself is bright and cheery and the apartments are big with lots of closets and storage. If you're from around here, it's across from the famous Haydel's Bakery, which is an added bonus!

This felt like a retirement community.

What really sticks out is the staff members, they have been great and very easy to work with.

Good community, you have to pay your own utilities.

You couldn't do any better than this community. This is by far 100% better than any other community I've been in. Some of the activities include arts and crafts, yoga, movies, trips to stores in the community, and more for the residents to participate in. The food is great here.

I have been here for 10 yrs. The staff is very accommodating with the residents. We also home great people here and they are very sociable. We all look out the other residents in our complex. The kitchen staff tries very hard to please us with various selections. The housekeepers are easy to deal with. Our drivers who takes us to the doctor in the van are always willing to help. We have neat activities you out of the arts and crafts and trivia.

VSM is pleasant, safe during COVID, apartments roomy. Staff friendly and helpful. Food is good with variety. Variety of activities. Cleanliness could improve. Trips on van should pick-up. Not too happy with chairs on 2nd floor by elevators.

Food is only fair few fresh fruits and vegetables.

While I've lived here for only a short period of time, this is by far 100% better than the previous community I lived in. It is professionally run and all of the employees are great. They made me feel at home from the very first day. The food and activities are varied and fun. There are no surprise changes to the day today routine unless there is an unforcene event. If for some reason the routine will be interrupted they notify everyone in writing with an explanation.

I've lived at Ville Ste Marie for nearly 6 years and enjoyed every minute; staff, etc. has always been top notch.

Everybody is friendly, all the staff members, especially the kitchen staff. My favorite activity is bingo, its a good way to learn everybody's names and have some good laughs. The staff do all they can to entertain us. This is a very clean and happy home.

The food is very good and it's difficult to not eat it all. The staff and residents are very friendly and helpful. [name removed] and [name removed] have gone out of their way to make us feel comfortable.

Very friendly people. Extra clean. Took great care of during the pandemic.

Food sucks, canned or fruit or vegetables fresh. Cleanliness is ok

After visiting several places around the area, I would say that Ville Ste. Marie is just what I was looking for. It's not over-the-top fancy like a new one I saw but it is EXACTLY perfect for someone who wants to feel like part of a family :) The staff are super friendly and the residents look healthy and are always smiling!
