Religious opportunities nurture your spirit, while game days ignite your competitive spirit. Marycrest offers the best in life-enriching community activities and togetherness while respecting individual privacy.
Dining
In addition to preparing your own meals in your apartment, you are always welcome to dine in our beautiful restaurant, The Lakes, or grab a quick bite to eat or cup of coffee in the Bistro.
The Lakes (open to the public) full-service restaurant offers a robust and affordable menu for dine-in, carryout, and patio dining options. Resident and guests choose from healthy options like entrée salads, fresh daily-made soups, made-to-order sandwiches or a variety of full meal options with daily specials.
The Lakes is also available to cater your next event! Offering group menus for birthday parties, memorial services, appreciation luncheons, business networking groups, holiday parties and more!
Reservations for The Lakes restaurant can be made by calling 734.743.4064
Patio & Walking Paths
With plenty of seating, our patio at Marycrest is a popular gathering place for residents. Surrounded by lush green space with plants and flowers, our walking path is perfect for those trying to get their steps in (and equally perfect for those who just enjoy a stroll and chat.) You might even see some cute squirrels, the occasional chipmunk and a variety of chirping birds.
Library
Our residents love to read. So we keep our library stocked with all of the greats and a lot of the newest must-reads. Have a seat and read in our cozy library or take a book to the fireplace or your own apartment to enjoy. Start a book club with some of the other residents – nothing like a good conversation about a mystery!
Woodshop
From simple projects for those exploring a new pastime to more complex projects for those who've spent a lifetime in the "shop," we're certain you'll find the tools you need and camaraderie you'll enjoy in the workshop at Marycrest.
Gather & Connect
We know leaving your old neighborhood can be difficult. But at Marycrest, you’ll become part of a new one immediately. You’ll find friends to dine with, friends to walk with and groups who share like-minded hobbies. And you’ll find that there are plenty of places to enjoy your alone time, even outside your apartment.
Get Active
Getting active doesn’t have to mean breaking a sweat! Join us around the piano, enjoy musical performances, attend educational presentations and guest lecturers, or try your hand at a craft. Our happy hour is the perfect time to just pull up a chair and enjoy a drink. Don’t forget to check our activity calendar for special events and parties featuring fun that you’re sure to enjoy!
Get Involved
Like to be a part of your community decision-making? We are a resident-focused community with resident-run council, menu planning, a food advisory board and activity planning committee. Represent your fellow residents and let your voices be heard.
Nurture Your Spirit
For those who like to worship, Mass is offered at 11 a.m. on Thursdays and 10 a.m. on Sundays – both are open to the public. Protestant services are also offered in our non-denominational Chapel. We invite everyone, of-every-faith tradition to visit our Chapel whenever they wish.
Personal Health & Wellness
There’s feeling good and there’s feeling great. We aim to help our residents feel great every day by offering a fully-equipped Wellness Center where they’re welcome to bring guests to receive outpatient therapy services, participate in small group fitness classes, or come to work out on their own time, at their own pace.
Wellness Center
Our Wellness Center (with two resident therapists!) boasts an ADL Suite where residents can hone skills and mobility needed to enhance Activities of Daily Living. Additionally, our aerobics pool and strength & restoring equipment help our residents build strength, maintain balance and enhance their overall health and wellness.
Beauty Salon
Look and feel your best after stopping by our on-site beauty salon! From a quick trim to a full color and style, you'll enjoy the convenience of accessing our salon right on campus.
Shuttle Service
Independence at your service! Whether you prefer to drive your own car or take a ride on the Marycrest shuttle, there are always ways to get around. Should you choose to bring your own car, we offer climate-controlled, underground parking. If you prefer we drive, our shuttle service is available for bi-weekly shopping trips.
“So many things to like about Marycrest - underground garage, in-house rehab, helpful and attentive staff and residents, extremely clean, etc. etc.”
