I have no intention of ever leaving!

I have the benefit of being a resident at two facilities, and the comparison, The Waterford far exceeds my expectations. The food is great. Entertainment is consistent with keeping the residents happy and we always have something to do. We have gone from cooking classes to stand-up comedy; there is never a want. If i had it to do over, I wouldn't change a thing.

Very nice and accommodating

They are very nice and accommodating. I moved here in [date removed]. Once when I was in the hospital for 10 days, they got a crew to come in and clean my whole apartment. I am glad to call the Waterford my home.

We’ve been very Happy.

My Mother has made friends and she enjoys the activities. Bingo, Church etc… The open feeling of the facility makes a big difference also. My Mother is able to get her hair done there, and she enjoys that a good deal. She has bird feeders outside her window. She enjoys keeping up with the birds. She enjoys having her own place. We bring her to my house fairly often and take her to eat at Restaurants on occasion. Relatives have gone to bingo with her and also to church. On an occasion some of us also dine with her at the restaurant.

Great place!

I am highly impressed with this community. They are very friendly and inviting. Always lots to do and events going on. The staff there know their residents so well and are always looking out for their well being. If you are looking for a great community and still have your independence I would recommend them.

Very welcoming and friendly community

Recently visited this community for an event. All of the staff and residents were so friendly and welcoming. Had a meal while I was there, it was delicious. This community will definitely be one that I recommend to family and friends that are ready for a senior living community.

Safe and caring

Our loved one enjoyed her stay there . We felt confident in the care she received and that she would be safe and cared for. She was starting to participate in activities and had friends who called and even visited when she had to go to the hospital. She wanted to go back but because of a stroke she had to go to a nursing home.

Lovely Clean Suburban Setting

The meals and dining are definitely good, and definitely needs to have nutrition-oriented executive chef. (Too fatty, too heavy on carbs.-- this is from my mother , though... she's not a healthy eater, though, so if she thinks it's too fatty & too carbohydrate heavy) But she's not wasting away. The dining room is beautiful. Linen table cloths, high ceilings, light & airy. My mom complains that the dining staff, especially at breakfast aren't "nice " For activities, I WISH that I could give an evaluation. It seems to me that there are consistently offerings for exercise , entertainment, religious- (evangelical Christian only) . My mother declines to participate in any of these activities. This is the best senior living situation for her.

Waterford on Highland Colony

They have had a turnover in directors, but I still give them a 4 rating overall. They are friendly, but I do think they could be more responsive. It is often the next day before we hear back from them or messages are not passed on to the correct staff member. They have changed chefs twice since we have been there, we are hoping things will improve soon. I would recommend The Waterford on Highland Colony.

Establishing new roots

I’ll have to admit the hesitancy Was there on moving day. Change is inevitable. In order to embrace change, we have to wrap our arms around it and charge ahead. The Waterford certainly made everything easy transitioning into a new lifestyle. Everyone on staff is so accommodating and genuinely cares about your well-being. First class facility.

Not an assisted living facility!!!

My parents were mislead!! This is not an assisted living facility, if the resident falls, they have to call the fire department!!They don't have help!! The food is terrible and they don't receive the food they ordered! They were under the impression that they would have help, but they do not have help. They constantly do not receive help!!
