Pinecrest Village at Mackinaw sits just off I-75 Exit 338, right across from Mackinaw Crossings' entrance, in Mackinaw City, so getting to local hospitals and doctors is easy, and you get on-site parking with off-street lots too, which makes coming and going simple for residents and their families, and you'll find a team of warm, friendly staff that works to help residents live as independently as they want while offering support when everyday tasks get tough, and their caregivers come from the McLaren Northern Michigan Health Care Program, so they can develop service plans for each person. You'll see Pinecrest Village has studio apartments at 333 sq. ft., one-bedrooms at 667 sq. ft., and two-bedrooms that are 930 sq. ft., and each apartment has a senior-friendly bathroom and convenient features like a microwave and refrigerator, plus easy access to laundry right on site, and you don't have to worry about managing yard work or snow removal since professional staff handle that as part of the full package of services. The community keeps residents busy with regular events, clubs, scheduled activities, trips sponsored by the community, and social dining settings, and every resident gets three hot meals each day, along with weekly housekeeping and linen changes, and the facility provides transportation, on-site physical and occupational therapy, and even weekly hair care for both men and women. There are common areas, activity rooms, a business center, a clubhouse, and a game room, so finding spaces to socialize isn't hard, and the program encourages everyone to make friendships and take part in life-enriching activities including wellness classes and educational programs, and there's a calendar full of different activities for different interests. Residents get help with medication reminders, diabetic care, bathing, incontinence care, and other support for daily living, and high acuity care is available for those who need it, with an emergency response system in each apartment for safety and peace of mind, and security plus building maintenance are available around the clock if something goes wrong. The dining room has restaurant-style service, and the Wi-Fi/high-speed internet access helps residents stay connected with family. Pinecrest Village at Mackinaw stands out for honoring Veterans and First Responders, and the rental community offers controlled access for added security, with professionally managed moving services to help get settled in, and Pinecrest has received recognition for its care and activities over the years. The 3.8 rating from 4 reviews suggests some residents and families find it comfortable, and the mix of independent and assisted living options means active seniors find services that fit their level of need without giving up comfort or the chance to choose how they want to spend their days.

Caring staff, home-like yet flawed
I love the caring, professional staff who consistently go above and beyond, the home-like rooms and variety of accommodations, and the nonstop activities and outings (weekly trips, mystery trips, Red Hat luncheons) that keep residents engaged. My only caveats: I noticed short-staffing, some cleanliness issues (including a bed-bug incident that was sprayed), mixed reports on meal quality, and occasional management/medical-staffing concerns - it's affordable and many residents are happy, so I recommend it with those reservations.
