I have lived at Watermere for two years. It is an excellent place for seniors who want to live independently without the responsibilities of home ownership. There are many activities including games,, social hours, trips, gym, and swimming activities plus more. I would recommend Wetermreer to anyone for a fun, well managed iidependent living facility.

My husband and I moved from New England to Texas after our daughter in Frisco visited Watermere and suggested we visit. And, so we did. I will always remember our visit! We had a tour and was impressed not only with the facilities but with the warmth and friendliness of residents who stopped to say hello and express their happiness here. We were invited to come back the next day for the Cinco de Mayo party. That was what "sold" us. Everyone was warm and welcoming and it was a very positive and interesting group. Many of the people are still close friends today! Watermere at Frisco is a community and that is what makes it distinctive and a home for us.

Had a pipe burst during the winter storm, but repairs were made very quickly and staff was very helpful and responsive. Although it was frustrating, it was great peace of mind that everything was fixed quickly with constant support of the on-site maintenance staff

Trying to find the right retirement community is really difficult - although my nana and pops are in their 70’s they are very active, social and independent. We toured a number of 55+ communities and although cheaper did not have the activities, dining, events and social interactions. It was hard to find anyone to help or assist - lower cost must be at the expense of staff! Watermere was a breath of fresh air and I was blown away by not only the staff but all the residents ready and waiting to give a glowing review!

I’ve recently been looking into communities for my mom and Watermere at Frisco have been nothing but helpful during this process! The website itself is informative and super user-friendly. When I called to get additional information the staff was patient and eased my stress in finding the best community for my mom.

My grandma has had a great experience at Watermere Frisco! We were really worried at first about whether or not she’d like it, especially with how hard it can be for her and other people with Celiac Disease to find dining options that cater to their specific needs AND taste good. Watermere Frisco has gone above and beyond everywhere, but especially in dinning. They have SO MANY OPTIONS for people like my grandma, who needs gluten free options, and with other dietary needs like sugar free and low sodium. It’s restaurant quality food with all of the perks of staying home. She loves going to meals and catching up with her friends, and we love how well taken care of she is.

We recently toured with my mother and we could not believe all the great things they have to offer. The activities are so numerous that she could stay busier then she had been in years. Many eays to meet new friends. We are going to be making our decision soon.

Staying in touch with my memaw is one of my most important factors when it comes to where she stays ! I love how not only can she stay in touch with her friends that also live in the community but myself and my family can keep in touch and have an eye on her with their community Facebook page! I love seeing her enjoying herself in all the activities they have to offer! Sometimes families even come out for the events and it’s such a great time getting everyone together! Most recently they put out a blog for holiday gifts and it came in so handy for my last minute shopping for memaw!

Watermere at Frisco is definitely the gold standard when it comes to both independent living and retirement communities. Although priced slightly higher than some of the other options in the market the extra offerings are well worth every penny. The property screams class, sophistication and beauty and is designed to feel like home. Great food, fantastic team and even better residents make it the perfect place to retire in!!

My mother is a resident at Watermere in Frisco. The location, residents and amenities are great. Unfortunately, the staff is not friendly or helpful, with the exception of [name removed], the sales person who helped us lease an apartment. The front desk/concierge, [name removed], is lacking customer service skills and is quite rude. I was surprised they would have her as their main point of contact to their residents. Also, they nickel and dime quite a bit and repeatedly ask residents to give money during the holidays for the employees… Which is shared amongst all the employees, including management- which is odd. My mom felt obligated to give money, even though she is on a fixed income, and they just raised their rental quite a bit.

I love it here. Everyone here is wonderful. There are lots of activities, and lots of ways to socialize. I am so happy that I have moved to Watermere. The food is very good and there are meal plan selections. The breakfast is included in the price per month that I pay. There is a full kitchen with washer and dryer connections in the apartment, and I have wonderful views from my apartment. There are lots of closet space and the bathroom is very nice and the rooms are large as well.

The staff are very friendly and know the resident's names. There are lots of activities for the residents to participate in. The food is fine. They have an indoor swimming pool that you can do water aerobics in. There are green spaces on the first floor. The fourth floor, has Astroturf with chairs for the residents to use. The staff are good to work with if there are questions or concerns. The maintenance team can be a little slow. Some of the activities include field trips, card games, art exhibits, religious studies and services, and more for the residents to choose from. There is an exercise room that is up-to-date.

Our family took two tours of this community and the same gentlemen [name removed] took us around and answered all of our questions. We had sit down meetings where we listened to all of our questions concerns and he really involved himself. After the tours he continued to follow up with us via email and texts but unfortunately the community was just to expensive.
