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.... Read more

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.

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.

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.

September 18, 2024Richard E, we're happy you found our staff to be so supportive during your experience here at The Waterford on Highland Colony.
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.

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!!

August 2, 2024Hello Lauren, Thank you for your 5-star review! We are pleased to hear The Waterford on Highland Colony is meeting your standards.
I came here to look for a place for my dad. He recently fell and was hospitalized but he's been living independently since my mom died in 2020. The idea of moving into a "facility" was not good for him. From the time that we walked in the building we were very hopeful. The building was beautiful and every person we encountered, staff and residents, were over-the-top friendly. The room was more than adequate, so much space. We had lunch and it was delicious. Plus, there are several men there so he will have great company. We are so excited to know my dad will have great neighbors and someone keeping an eye on him.
