Heritage Village of Holt

Mother's former residence came at a high price. "Herd-mentality" assisted living arrested her independence, robbed her of paid services, and greatly reduced her savings. Since discovering Holt Heritage Village's comfort of independent living, as-needed services and affordability, she's grown more content each day.

Mom enjoys the comfort of independent living. Her spacious apartment is equipped with walk-in shower, well placed grip bars, roll-out kitchen shelves and intercom entry to aid in that independence. Instead of long, institutional hallways, Holt Heritage Village designed each building on the gorgeous atrium plan. These are lit by cheerful skylight, apartments surrounding, with their own recessed doorways, contributing to another coveted feature of independent living: privacy! Additionally, there is no public entry where residents are expected to gather, avoiding that "on display" feel of Mom's form address.  Rather, comfortable and beautiful common rooms are especially designed for social dining, activities, reflective meditation and reading.

At Holt Heritage Village, Mom appreciates the comfort of her as-needed services!...Mom has found very affordable comfort of Holt Heritage's apartment, meal plan and additional services pricing.  "Independent Living with Serives" makes it possible for her to live within her inomce, not her savings, which she can happily reserve for future need.  We're so happy our mother has found a true home!

A Hidden Gem: Heritage Village of Holt

A gracious neighborhood of 1- and 2-bedroom apartment homes tucked into 11 acres of natural woods, Heritage Village offers seniors age 55-plus an abundance of options and amenities--from their home style and leisure activities to supportive services.

"We're the best of both worlds" says Heritage Village administrator Krista Brayton.

The tranquil setting where wild turkeys stroll through the woods is just minutes from dining, shopping and entertainment. Three residential buildings-each connected to the community center-offer spacious, home-style apartments featuring bay windows, full kitchens with appliances, walk-in showers and many other amenities. For those who wish, meals are prepared daily onsite and seved in the community dining area.

Equally important are the options for supportive services.  Residents have the freedom to enjoy totally independent living or opt for personalized health care assistance to the degree they need or want--from help managing medications to hospice care. Special packages help make care options affordable, and Heritage Village partners with multiple senior care organizations to ensure that residents have access to helpful resources.

Heritage Village pays particular attention to enabling its seniors to live happily in a warm, loving and supportive environment. With just 45 apartment homes, says Krista, "We're smaller, more family-like. We can keep our eyes on everything." 

Krista, who has been with Heritage Village since it opened...is also proud of the low turnover among her staff--unusual in the senior living industry, she points out. To her, it's further evidence of the Heritage Village Philosophy: "We don't just care for people, we care about people."
