The Apartments At AuSable Valley Community in Fairview, MI, welcomes seniors 62 and older and has a range of care levels, so residents can find independent living, assisted living, memory care, and in-home care services all in one place. The community sits in a peaceful spot with a pretty walking path that goes right to Township Park, which has tennis and basketball courts, and there's a garden area, fitness equipment, and picnic space where people can spend time outdoors. There's a large lobby at the entrance, a multipurpose room with a kitchen, a recreation room with a terrarium, a billiard room, a library, and a hair salon, so residents have places to gather, read, enjoy hobbies, and see friends or family, which makes things feel less lonely. The one-bedroom apartments are aimed at seniors, with helpful features like grab bars in the bathrooms, cable and internet readiness, extra storage, heat and electric included, curtain rods, and big windows that let in light, and all the apartments are secured with controlled entry for safety.
There's staff support day and night for those who need help with daily activities, medication reminders, or rehabilitation, and there are short-term and respite care options for families who need a break. Memory care has secure areas along with activities to support residents with Alzheimer's or dementia, and programs work to reduce confusion and keep people from wandering. Residents can depend on personal care, meals made with quality ingredients, wound care, and skilled nursing, and the community provides both long-term and short-term rehab through Wellspring Lutheran Services. Services go beyond what's typical - there's even hospice care, grief support, foster care, and behavioral health programs like Camp Hope and counseling. The property allows one small pet per apartment, under 30 pounds, with some rules: there's a pet fee, and animals have to be spayed or neutered. You'll find coin-operated laundry, after-hours maintenance, community areas for social activities and awards for friendly staff and quality care, with a real focus on making life easier for seniors who want affordable, accessible living. The lease is 12 months, the grounds are landscaped, the snow gets shoveled, and there's lawn care too, so people who live there don't have to worry about chores and can just enjoy what the community has to offer, which might be simple, but it's enough for a comfortable life.
