Thanks to the dedication of Friends of Hospice of Little Traverse Bay (pictured above) and countless community contributions, Hiland Suites at Bay Bluffs now houses three welcoming end-of-life suites, complete with private family spaces and serene views, designed to offer dignity and comfort. The open house featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony, guided tour, and heartfelt expressions of gratitude for those who helped make this vision a reality.

The event also highlighted ongoing community-driven momentum for future expansion, with plans to add up to eleven suites as needs and resources grow. This milestone continues the legacy of compassionate care inspired by Hiland Cottage, ensuring our loved ones receive support close to home. Thank you to all who joined us and shared in this celebration. Together, we are strengthening the foundation of quality end-of-life care in our region.
