Brentwood at Elkhart Independent Living offers seniors different living options in a two-story brick building with 88 bright apartments, where each room has large windows, a private bathroom, walk-in closets, and a kitchenette, and you'll find some kitchens too. Residents can choose from short-term respite care for trial stays or caregiver breaks, independent living for active seniors who don't need much help, assisted living, memory care, and even nursing home services, so whether someone likes to stay for a short time or a long time, there are choices to fit. Brentwood welcomes pets and has pet therapy along with its pet-friendly policy, so animals are welcome in most areas, and there's an outdoor courtyard with a gazebo, plus walking trails and a gardening spot where folks can work in the soil or just relax in the breeze.

Inside, residents have lounges, a coffee area, a formal dining room, a private dining room for special events, and a game room with a kitchenette, along with beauty and barber services right onsite.
