Opening in the Fall of 2022, Red Cedar Lodge will offer residents in Lansing, Michigan, the unique opportunity to live in a state-of-the-art senior living community with amenities to rival the most luxurious hotels. The designers focused on the details to make this a uniquely ideal experience for Michigan residents, from the Michigan State University greens which abut the construction to the chosen colors for the interior design.
With 127 units becoming available, residents will have plenty of options for their housing. They can choose from studio apartments to spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom living quarters. At least 16 of the units will be reserved for memory care. The exterior resembles a high-end hotel or luxury apartment building, with immaculately landscaped groups, walking trails, and gardens. Inside, residents will find multiple common areas with comfortable seating, fireplaces, and unique amenities like craft rooms, a fully equipped gym, and a chapel. A social club with a bar is an ideal spot to catch up with friends for a happy hour. While the apartments are distinctly comfortable, many residents will want to spend most of their time socializing in these common areas.
Staff members are fully vetted and trained to accommodate most needs, from mobility to...

This place is very nice! Modern clean and bright. [name removed] who gave me the tour was very nice and informative. I didn’t go with them simply because I wanted my wife to be close. Their pricing is very competitive. I would recommend a visit!

The staff was superb and professional for our tour. The facility is the nicest one we’ve seen and feels like a high end resort. I think living near MSU would be especially nice due to the liveliness of the area.

1) environment is very nice, the decor etc. wide hallways, granite countertops.. 2) staff is very kind and helpful - they are not perfect, and sometimes they are short staffed. The staff knows everybody's name, what they eat etc. 3) lots of activities each day 4) daily happy hour at the bar - well attended My Mom doesn't have any real medical issues, so if that is the case where more medical type attention is needed, it may not be right for them. We don't have any place to compare it to, as this is her only experience. Overall it has been positive

The Red Cedar Lodge facility is relatively new and beautiful. The common areas are thoughtfully, decorated and spacious. The apartments are spacious as well and well laid out. Our contact person, [name removed], was extremely gracious, professional, and informative. Additionally, she was very generous in the time she spent with us touring the facility and introducing us around. Observation of the other staff members showed them to be pleasant, interactive, and interested in providing an excellent resident experience. This includes the nurse practitioner who covers the facility as well as the heads of OT, PT, and speech therapy. We're currently in process LSU record of presenting this to our 98-year-old perspective resident. We greatly appreciate what the Red Cedar Lodge has to offer.

Mom wasn't there long enough to enjoy much activities, although what I saw looked great 5 as well, lastly. A 4 as this facility is fairly expensive compared to other facilities She fell so in love with Red Cedar her first thoughts were to sell the house and go native to the Red Cedar!

While the facility presents like a high end hotel, that is a deceptive facade. When relative moved in food was very good, but as management changed (often) records were lost, policies changed and communication with outside family members was negligible. Caregivers were (mostly) excellent and caring, but stretched thin. Finally removed the family member to an alternate location that was smaller and better managed. Recommend doing research by getting copies of policies and more before signing up - don’t rely on the word of the person “selling” the experience.

Red Cedar was amazing. They're number one asset is their staff. They care a lot about their residence and the memory care facility was amazing in my mom's final months. The food was much better when we first arrived under Chef [name removed]. Mom was there about 11 months before she passed. And they could not seem to get the food dialed in. However, that would be my only criticism, and they're very aware of it.

What we like the most about Red Cedar Lodge is that it is handicapped accessible. Based on the experience we have had so far, yes we would recommend this community to others. They will negotiate price but the food is average, the rooms and facilities are nice. Not much for activities, the do take occasional trips. But I still like the building, it's clean. Doors are hard to open. That's a problem

Mother in law was moved in after 6 week at nursing home to receive rehab for congestive heart failure diagnosis….she was still weak and in need of assistance (24) hr care family members all took turns staying through the evening with her but that became overwhelming and difficult to navigate as we have children,jobs and home to take care of but when your mom goes thru this we all wanted her to be safe and in a home environment as she wasn’t well enough to be at home anymore…from the moment we all toured the facility and were able to discuss options with very informative staff we decided this would be a great fit… when we moved her in she was in independent living but her health continued to decline and she needed more one on one care she was having severe memory issues and was moved to memory care floor which was an awesome floor with polite and compassionate care givers who helped Fran and our family transition thru hospice where she in a short period of time went to meet the lord

This has been the best experience ever with any of my family members being in a senior living Environment the staff is exquisite, very attentive and caring!! The daily experience is unbelievable. The food is great. All staff upstairs on fifth floor are friendly and willing to help with anything. This has been the best place for my father.

There is a real problem with management, understanding, state regulations, implementing policies and procedures, and helping staff with schedules. We are always understaffed due to scheduling, call offs and failure to hire enough staff. The care staff here is wonderful, just not enough of them. My husband and I love living here, we just notice the stress on staff due to understaffing, which I understand is an industry wide issue.

It's been a great experience, even with the management upheaval and difficulty finding staff. They are open to resident suggestions and requests. I would definitely recommend it to others.

RCL is def a place for my mom to call home!!! She loves it there as do my siblings and I. My mom came from anther facility and RCL has met our expectations for taking care of my mom! We have been looking at different facilities and well, if I have a question RCL communicates with me within reason. Communication is probably one of our key factors along with the care that my mom has. And RCL truly goes above and beyond. One great thing that we notice is all the family interactions that come and see their loved ones there! Other facilities we did not notice that! Staff is great and personable. Move in process was easy and a smooth transition for my mom. Food is excellent! Kudos to the chef! I would definitely recommend RCL to others.

It is has a very homelike setting! Nice that you can be involved in things or just stay home. Feels like an apartment for her. Love the way they do their dining experience. And love that they have a bar.

It was head and shoulders above the other places I looked at - physical space and atmosphere. They are new. New and inexperienced. My concern was not addressed that my Mom had become delirious with a UTI and was able to leave the building unnoticed at 4 am consequently unable to get back in for an hour until the kitchen staff arrived. The only option we were given was to move her into memory care which was not appropriate for a temporary condition.

Our family had an in person tour with Red Cedar Lodge and we found they did a good job with the overall tour experience, it just came down to room availability for our loved one

I love it here! I'm the happiest resident in the building. The value is wonderful and I have a lovely apartment. The chef is marvelous. They go above and beyond to personalize things for the residents. The staff are wonderful to work with. The community is super close to shopping and more. The residents are exceedingly friendly with each other. It truly feels like a family here! The community has transportation to take the residents on outings, shopping experiences, doctor appointments, and field trips. There is entertainment that comes in for the residents to enjoy. There is a salon, activity room, physical therapy, and more for the residents enjoy as well! I would recommend the community to others for themselves or family members. There are even couples in the community and this would be a great place to start your assisted living experience.

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Know Michigan’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Michigan’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.
Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
