A True Sense of Belonging

About Perrysburg SeniorLife Neighborhood

At Otterbein Perrysburg, residents, whom we call elders, make their home in one of five inviting small houses, each offering a private suite for comfort and shared spaces for connection. Here, family-style meals, warm conversations, and a true sense of belonging create a real-home atmosphere where every elder is known, valued, and cared for in a way that feels personal and heartfelt.

Our “Small House … Big Difference” philosophy is all about nurturing close bonds, creating meaningful moments, and filling each day with joy. The Perrysburg SeniorLife Neighborhood offers a fresh, uplifting alternative to traditional rehab, long-term care, and memory support — one that celebrates personal choice, respects individuality, and provides support that adapts to each person’s unique needs and preferences.

What We Offer

Why Choose a Small House?

Developed in partnership with the Green House Project® , this revolutionary model creates a real-home environment where residents don’t just live — they thrive.
