A couple years ago our dad asked us to help him find assisted care living. He hoped to stay local. I toured the facility with Brook program manager Ayme and later toured with dad. He liked the atmosphere right away. Our dad has always been very independent and competent. We knew the process of moving to assisted living might present challenges. From day one, every staff member showed the utmost respect, care, and consideration. Staff encouraged participation in activities but gave individuals space to make their own decisions. Every staff member has been amazing. Dad sends a special shoutout to Mary, Dani, Ayme, and Dawn (and many more!) Our dad has gotten so much healthier and happier since joining the Brook family. The Brook of Houghton Lake treat every resident as family. We appreciate beyond words each and every one of them. We couldn’t recommend them more. With greatest appreciation!

Mary Speer, Jodi in the kitchen, Amy the director and so many more were so good to my mother-in-law when she was at the Brook for her final years of her life!!

My mom was here and got displaced by a fire in her wing. I told the girls I wanted her back as soon as possible. During the time that she was else where Mary and Jodi would go and visit mom. I was so happy when mom got to come back and meet Amy the director and her son gunner. He liked visiting with my mom too. My mom has passed away since but I still like to visit and keep in touch with my girls at the Brook they are part of our family! I have say that all of the staff that I had pleasure of meeting treated me and my mom with the best care. I also have to say I made friends with some residents that blessed my memories of good discussions
Response from the owner:William, thank you so much for the heartfelt review. We're deeply touched by your kind words and truly honored to have been a part of your mothers' care journey. Our team deeply cares for each resident and visiting her during the displacement was simply and extension of the love and commitment we feel. With sincere gratitude - The Brook Team

I have the pleasure of knowing the activities coordinator and I know she is always looking for ways to enrich the lives of the residents! Our family also had the pleasure of trick or treating at The Brook of Houghton Lake last Halloween. The residents were all smiles as they enjoyed the littles and passed out candy!
Response from the owner:Thank you Tiffany for taking the time to share your experience at The Brook of Houghton Lake! We're thrilled that you and your family enjoyed our Trick-or-Treat event - it was such a joy to see families, little ones and our residents all celebrating together.

I recently toured The Brook of Houghton Lake with Ayme, a registered nurse there, and she was absolutely wonderful. From the start, she was warm, friendly, and easy to talk to—she made the whole experience comfortable and informative. The environment at The Brook felt peaceful, clean, and welcoming. It’s clear that the staff really cares about the people who live there. Everyone I came across seemed kind, attentive, and happy to be part of the community. Ayme made a great impression and really represents the heart of what makes The Brook feel like a great place for senior living. I left feeling confident that it’s a place where people are truly cared for.
Response from the owner:Thank you Kristin for your recent 5 star review and support of our Houghton Lake community!

My experience with The Brook has been exceptional. The entire staff is helpful, understanding, knowledgeable, and, above all, kind. If you’re searching for a “home” for your loved one where you can be confident they will receive excellent care and compassion, this is the place for you.

Ayme and the staff are some of the most caring and compassionate people I have ever met. They go above and beyond for the residents and their families. From the day mom moved in until her passing the care and support was exceptional. The support they gave our family during moms final days was heartfelt and helped make an emotional time easier. I highly recommend if you are looking for a clean, caring, friendly place for yourself or a loved one. May God bless each of them richly.

The facilities and the staff at The Brook of Houghton Lake are top notch. The caring & compassionate team there are making a very difficult time in our lives as easy as it possibly can be. It is a great comfort to know that our loved one is in a safe & comfortable environment.

I wanted to thank Pam Wilcox and all the staff at The Brook of Houghton Lake for their exceptional care of their residents during this past year. I wanted to congratulate everyone at The Brook for staying COVID free this year! It has been challenging for staff and residents and their family and friends but their conscientiousness has paid off. Residents and staff have been able to get their first vaccinations and soon will get their second shots. I have witnessed the compassion the residents have received from staff doing extra for the residents during this pandemic and am very impressed by them all.
Luann B.
I would like to compliment Pam and the entire staff at The Brook of Houghton Lake. I have observed how they all work so well together and with such kindness to all the residence and their families. I feel fortunate to have this great facility with such positive staff in our community. I appreciate their patience and especially the respect they show to every resident. Thank you to the whole team for working through the challenges of Covid 19 and keeping a happy atmosphere for everyone.
