“Mom, this is the place!” I visited The Cottages with my daughter and we looked at the Cottage that was available. Those were the first words out of her mouth and also the sentiment of my heart, too! It’s been a few months over a year since I moved in and the words, “Mom, this is the place” continue to ring true. I needed to be in aesthetically pleasing, peaceful surroundings to reflect. And I have been able to do that among caring neighbors and local management that bends over backwards to care for the residents here. I... read more

Hi, Betsy. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
We moved into the Cottages of Monroe at the end of January/2025. To say our experience has been beyond amazing would be an understatement. In our opinion, The Cottages of Monroe is a home that everyone needs to be at but they don’t know what they’re missing until they experience it. From day one, every resident has been so friendly and helpful. It’s like a big family where everyone actually loves each other. Last but not least, we couldn’t leave a review without mentioning Margie Briscoe, our fearless leader. She wea... read more

Hi, Mike. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
The Cottages are the perfect place for independent senior living. The community is small enough to promote a feeling of family but large enough to allow you to have your own space. The villa style homes are perfect for easy access without stairs. The Executive Director, Margie Briscoe, has been here for 23 years and is the BEST at spreading love and kindness to each and every resident. She is AMAZING!! The one issue that we have is our long wait list to get in....about 24 months...but the folks who are waiting don't see... read more

The Cottages of Monroe is home to several of my friends. They love the activities Margie plans for them. They love the residents get together and are social. The comfort and security living there is the best! The Cottages Maintenance is unbeatable. If you don’t want to change a lightbulb just call Charles and he’s there to do it with a servants heart and smile!!

Hi, Nancy. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
To live at the Cottages of Monroe provides a residence any senior adult could desire. On my first visit, a kind dweller allowed me to tour her spacious home. Sold immediately. The family-like atmosphere of executive director Margie Briscoe and her maintenance technician husband Charles provides not only hospitality but also security. Although an independent community, the Cottages weekly events are planned to allow amusement and neighborly conversations. At one event a resident shared, “If I were offered any Monroe home free... read more

Hi, Meliesue. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
My parents moved to The Cottages last year and we could not be more happy with this senior community. Units are nice and landscaping is always kept fresh with seasonal plantings. Maintenance is super fast if you have an issue. Margie, the Manager, has gone far beyond to create a community that is welcoming by providing opportunities to gather and socialize. This was the best decision my parents made when they decided to sell their home and move to a place where they did not have to worry about property upkeep.

Hi, Jeanie. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
It took us a year or searching to find the Cottages, we were on the waiting list for 18 months. Now all I can say is was well worth the wait. Just wish we had started earlier.

Hi, Ken. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
You couldn't find a better place to enjoy senior living with a group of friendly people! My husband and I moved to "The Cottages" a year and a half ago as we downsized and moved closer to family. Margie, Charles and Karen are the best and take care of us with genuine care and concern. We've never regretted making this change!
Business response:
Hi, Karen. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!
This is paradise for the independent aging. Community is friendly and caring. We have daily activities with loving fellowship. Staff is professional but also family. I’ve never been happier!!
