After my husband passed away, my children encouraged me to move back north. I hesitated as Midwest winters aren’t exactly my favorite, but once we found Mulberry Place, everything fell into place. I moved in March to avoid the cold, and I’ve never been happier.The apartment layout is perfect, the care is exceptional, and the management truly cares about each of us. I especially appreciate being just a mile from my family; they walk over every morning to visit. Another huge bonus? I got to bring my pug, Pete. He loves our patio space, and the staff love him just as much as I do.There’s something to look forward to every day, from exercise to bingo to fruit parfaits and social gatherings. I’m a quilter and have finished two quilts since moving in. Mulberry Place allows me to continue doing what I love while receiving the support I need. If you’re looking for a place where you’ll be genuinely cared for—both physically and emotionally—this is it.

When my husband needed additional care, and I could no longer drive, my family and I realized it was time for a change. Living out in Downing made it hard to get to church, the doctor, or even the grocery store. After staying briefly at Mulberry Place and seeing how close it was to everything I needed, I decided to make it my home.Now, I enjoy the little things that make life easier, like not having to cook or do laundry, and the staff truly make the experience wonderful. Michelle, Hannah, and Janelle have all been exceptional. I also look forward to the activities, especially when someone comes to play hymns during breakfast. Oh, and if you ever visit, try the French dip—it’s my favorite!

As I got older, living alone became more than I could manage, first on the farm, then even in town. My health started to decline, and I knew I needed a change. Moving into Mulberry Place was the best decision I could’ve made. The staff here is absolutely wonderful, always smiling, friendly, and genuinely happy to help. It feels like they love what they do, and that energy makes a difference.I love that I still have my freedom to come and go, but I also get to enjoy great amenities like exercise classes and yoga. The environment is warm, welcoming, and supportive. They treat me like family here, and that’s something I truly value every day.
