Village at Appledorn sits at 630 Hastings Ave in Holland, Michigan, and stands as a 55+ senior living community designed with older adults in mind, offering a wide range of care levels like independent living, assisted living, memory care, and respite care so whether someone needs a little or a lot of help, they've got options, and with things set up as both apartments and cottages in one and two-bedroom layouts, there's room to have some comfort and privacy. The grounds feature lush landscaping, sidewalks for easy strolls, covered porticos at the entrance, outdoor patios, and plenty of inviting sitting spots, while inside, places like a grand foyer with a fireplace, formal and private dining rooms, a mini-theater for movies, a library, and a card and game room give residents plenty of space for activities and time together.
The apartments and cottages themselves are comfortable and practical, with well-equipped kitchens with oak cabinets and double sinks, living and dining rooms with touches like wicker and floral decor, private patios or balconies, and options for barrier-free units and accessibility throughout, so people with mobility challenges can get around without too much trouble. All units have individually controlled air conditioning, gas forced-air heating, vinyl flooring in bathrooms and kitchens, wall-to-wall carpet in living spaces, and emergency call systems in the bathrooms and living areas, so help can arrive quickly if needed, which keeps safety and comfort a top focus.
Village at Appledorn allows both cats and dogs with some size and type restrictions, needing vaccine records and a pet deposit, and the place includes spaces like carports, storage areas, and guest suites for visitors, though some perks may have an added fee. The community's activities aim to keep seniors social, active, and engaged, offering a busy calendar filled with things like social programs, exercise classes, wellness seminars, blood pressure checks, and even outings on a community bus to places like stores and banks, all at no additional charge. Meals use quality ingredients and the place offers dining rooms where residents can eat and socialize together, and folks needing a little more help with daily living get support like medication management, housekeeping, laundry, handyman services, and on-site beauty salon services, each with their own cost per use.
The facility's design means folks with different needs can live alongside each other, from active, healthy seniors making the most of the fitness center and outdoor spaces to those who need memory care or nursing and rehab, and there's always well-trained, friendly staff around for support-people often mention their kindness and willingness to help out. The building's got Wi-Fi, a computer room for email and internet, elevators, coin-free laundry rooms, trash rooms, interior mailboxes, and a resident convenience store, so folks' basic needs and comforts stay covered. The community is under local laws that protect residents from discrimination based on gender identity, orientation, and source of income, making the place respectful and inclusive. The Assistant Community Manager is Ms. Barbara Koning. Scheduled tours are available for anyone who wants to take a look around. Overall, Village at Appledorn provides many choices and amenities for seniors who want a safe, comfortable, and engaging place to live with help when needed, but not too much if you still want your independence.
