We're on a waiting list for Watercrest at Mansfield. I liked the water view and the size of the villas. The staff is very friendly. It's a small home, three-bedroom, two-baths with a garage. It's very nice. The dining room was recently refurbished with very luxurious colors and decorations, and it felt very updated and well-maintained. They have an indoor pool with water aerobics.

Provider Response

Thank you, Carolyn. It's wonderful to hear how much you appreciate the water view, the size of our villas, and our friendly staff at Watercrest at Mansfield. Your feedback reaffirms the hard work we put in every day! Thank you, The Watercrest at Mansfield Team

I toured Watercrest at Mansfield twice, and the first time I toured it was with the activity director, and she was great. The second time my daughter went with me and Stephanie showed us around, and she was great, too. It was a good experience. I think they want me. They keep trying to reach me, but I've been too busy to get back in touch with them, to let them know that I'm still looking. It's a nice place. It's worth it. It's just I don't know if I can afford it. There were people playing cards at a table. I spoke to them and they spoke back to me. We passed the table where there were some puzzles that had been partially put together. She explained that they just work on it whenever they feel like it. She showed me the ones on the walls that they had done, and I thought that was pretty cool. The second tour with my daughter Stephanie treated us to lunch, so that was nice. We each had a hamburger and fries. I saw the fitness center, the beauty salon, the theater room, and the pool. She showed me everything that they had. The pool was one of the things I really liked. They had water aerobic classes. I was impressed with the facility. Any one of the apartments that she showed me would have been fine if I could afford it. I think she will work with me and try to help me get in there if that's where I decide to go. They have one- and two-bedroom apartments, and they have them in different sizes, from small, medium to large as far as square feet go. You can get a small one-bedroom, a small two-bedroom, a large one-bedroom, or a large two-bedroom. I like that they have garages and storage rooms. The hamburger we had was good. I remember commenting to Stephanie after I tasted the hamburger that it reminded me of an old hole in the wall hamburger joint. It was like a good old homemade hamburger. Even though the price is out of my range, it's not their fault. I just don't have enough money. I don't think their price is too high for what they're offering, because I've toured other facilities that don't charge as much, but they're not as nice.

We looked at Watercrest at Mansfield. It's very organized and very clean. It looked like it would work if my brother decided to go there. I didn't really have anything negative to say. It's independent, but they give a small monthly allowance for food. The apartments were bigger than what we thought they were going to be. They're a very nice size. The staff was very friendly and outgoing. They answered our questions well. With regards to activities, there were a few people in the exercise room. But as far as my brother goes, he is not into crafts or puzzles. He wants to be able to find other vets and to be able to sit around and talk to them. They have a movie room, and they also have a swimming pool, but he wouldn't get into that.

Provider Response

Thank you for your kind words. We would love to have your brother become a resident for we have a lot of vets that would welcome him sitting and talking. Also, the vets have a lot of places they go to eat and visit. Thank you for visiting Watercrest.

We toured Watercrest at Mansfield. It was great overall. Our tour guide was very informative and showed us everything. We were very pleased with it. We're impressed with our guide who interviewed us, took us around and showed us some rooms. Everything looked clean and sanitary. The other residents were very happy. The rooms we saw were very nice and clean. It looks like they have everything that a person would need. It was very well organized. We were in the dining area, which was also nice and clean. The people were very friendly and helpful. We were there maybe an hour or so. They were having an ice cream social at the time, so we went down and had ice cream with some of the staff. They have a swimming pool, trails, and arts and crafts. They have a little movie theater, a game room, and a salon. It had pretty much everything that we would like.

Provider Response

That is wonderful news, Walter, and we appreciate all your kind comments about Watercrest at Mansfield. We hope we'll see you again very soon, and thank you for your support. Thank you, Brooke White - Executive Director

Hello, I have been looking over the Watercrest @ Mansfield. I do have a few questions. The first question is; are you in the process of downgrading the property? Second; are you getting it ready to sell? When I first looked at the property I noticed the nice carpeted hallways that deadened sound and gave the place a class feel. However I have found out that you are removing the carpet for the low maintenance Linoleum planks with a wood grain pattern. And that you plan to do this with every hallway? I know economically it is lower cost, repair and cleaning. But it is the new wave of being "a luxurious Independent living retirement community"? That type of newer flooring will do nothing but amplify any sounds in the hallway for the residents. Another discrepancy I have found is that you state "we don't force our residents to pay for services that they do not want or use". Not true. Even if you don't eat any meals in the dinning room, you are charged $75.00 a month. Also you are charged $50.00 per month for housekeeping. This is only one cleaning, once a month. Most say they only have someone there less than an hour. Seems a little excessive. On the downgrading side concerns I have to also consider the Appliances. On your website it states"Upgraded, energy efficient, full kitchen stainless-steel appliance package. All I have seen in people's units are basic Whirlpool 17.5 Cu.Ft. Black refrigerator units. One resident told me that when they moved in, even though they charge the outgoing resident a $100 cleaning fee, that the cleaning that had been done was all surface. They had to move the range out not less than a month after moving in and found a huge amount of stuff. This included a small skillet, foodstuff and a dead cockroach. Another resident is telling that if the kitchen faucet goes bad they replace the brushed nickel single-handled faucet with pull-out sprayer with a conventional basic two handled faucet without a hose. I asked their maintenance about that and they said it's the way of world. Seems like a real down grade to me. I am sure that a suitable replacement faucet could be installed that won't break the bank. I know that suitable replacements run under $90.00. How does this fit in with In-Home Perks? "Designed with your way of life in mind, our luxury homes feature a variety of upscale finishes and features that elevate your lifestyle. And in another place it says apartments offer high-end features designed to elevate your lifestyle and even refers to upscale features like a full-size chef's kitchen. Again, I have to wonder, is this community stable for my loved one, or are they going to be continually downgraded without a voice. Thank you

Watercrest at Mansfield was a great place. It's lovely, but I just cannot afford it. They showed me around, took me to an apartment, and did everything that they were supposed to do. It was a wonderful place. I saw a beauty shop, a game room, and a swimming pool. The facilities were great. The rooms were also beautiful. It had granite countertops. It was spacious and nice. The lady who toured me around was perfect.

Watercrest at Mansfield was a nice-looking place. The positive thing about it was, I have a daughter in Joshua, one in Mansfield, and another one in Midlothian. So, that's maybe where I go because they are close to my daughters. It's just that they don't furnish you with dinners or lunches. They furnish breakfast every morning, but you have to buy the rest of them. They had nice rooms with a full kitchen, washer-dryer, walk-in shower, and a decent size bedroom. The person who gave me the tour was a nice lady. The dining area was also nice. They gave me a little furnished lunch, and it was excellent and good quality food. They got all kinds of activities too, like card games, workout rooms to go to, a barbershop, and a beauty shop.

Provider Response

Thank you for your kind words. Our lunches are reasonably priced and we give you a credit of 75.00 towards your lunches. Also you order off of a menu just like a restaurant. There are sandwiches or a full meal. We look forward to talking to you again. Thank you for touring and we would welcome you to our community with open arms. Watercrest

We toured Watercrest at Mansfield for my wife and myself. The facility was nice. It was clean, and the rooms look good. The only thing that turned us off was they did not serve dinner. They only serve breakfast and lunch. They have a gym. They have activities, and they also had a pool. They have games, walking tours, and they go out in the community.

Provider Response

Thank you for taking time to visit Watercrest in your search. Jim I am so sorry you did not like that we do not serve dinner. We actually found out that most active seniors would rather have a large lunch, just a snack, or eat something that they can prepare for dinner. I would love for you to come join us for a lunch sometime so you can see how this can tie you over for the evening. Jim Thank You for considering Watercrest in your search for senior living. If we can be of service to you please do not hesitate to call.

My tour at Watercrest at Mansfield was excellent, that's why we chose it. We loved the apartments, they were all granite countertops which is very nice. They have a lot of activities there and beautiful places to walk around the lake. It's just a very nice environment. They offer everything, they have bingo, happy hours on Fridays, people can sing and there's constantly something all the time. They offer different amounts of meals. Then when you go in for lunch, you just tell them and they mark it off for you. I went at Christmas the first time, and the place was decorated to the hilt. It was very nice, it has a beautiful theater room where they can go and watch movies, and they have a salon and a barber there. They also have a salt-water pool that has covers closed on the winter so they can still go in. There's also an activities room where they can do all kinds of arts and crafts a lot. They have an exercise room. When I went there they have this ball, and they were drumming on it which was cool, they were having a great time. All the residents I have randomly talked to have nothing but excellent things to say. We had a meal there, I would rate my food a 3, but my parents loved theirs.

Provider Response

Thank you for taking the time to visit our community, Debi. It was an honor to show you and your parents the wholesome retirement lifestyle we offer, and it's wonderful to hear that it resonated. You certainly made the right choice. As always, please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or additional feedback. All the best!

I live at Watercrest for the past 6 years and have enjoyed myself with all the activities. The staff has always been accommodating to the needs of the residents. I would recommend our beautiful resort to anyone that is looking for a care free lifestyle. The bedroom are large enough to accommodate a king size bed with a walk in closet. Amenities are awesome, with a fitness center, salon and salt water pool ( heated year around) I you enjoy the afterhours activities such as dinner out, movies, gambling, symphony and so much more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

This facility has been my mom's home for several years. It is a nice facility, but there Is a high turnover in management. Currently the management is unfriendly. Complaints are ignored or dismissed. If pressed the management may resort to dismissing or intimidating residents to get them to drop their concerns. The leases continue to increase annually at an already expensive facility. Parking spots are few. Paid parking options are the solution with rates that continue to rise as well. Repairs are done at the convenience of the management and they will enter the apartments without proper written notice. The dining option is expensive and food is average. Since this is an aging in place facility, there should be a consideration for seniors in terms of cost, right to contribute to the affairs of the facility by the residents, and in polite and respectful treatment of the residents.

I went to Watercrest at Mansfield with my daughter, my son, and my daughter-in-law, and we all loved it. It has everything that I need, and it is a very wonderful place. I have some friends who already live there. I can even get physical therapy there if I need it. The staff showed me 2 different apartments and the 1-bedroom that I was looking for. They have water exercise in the pool and other exercises like yoga. They also have a hair salon on the premises. They furnish the cable TV which is included in the month’s rent.

The Watercrest was quite nice. I just looked around. It was very convenient to my parents’ home. I went into the independent living area, which is what I was looking for for my mother. I did not go into the rooms, but I’ve seen their floor plans. It was quite nice and well maintained. Active seniors are able to live there and come and go as they please. It was a very friendly and very inviting, very attractive building that was much more attractive than some places.

I was very impressed with Watercrest at Mansfield. The dining area was really nice. I would prefer having larger rooms and a larger closet; I was not impressed at all with the closet space. The rooms were smaller than what I had expected. They served us a really good lunch. They had card games, dominoes, bingo, and an exercise room.

The rooms are Watercrest were pretty basic. The facility looked pretty nice, and I think the interactivity with the patients seemed to be high. They were playing some kind of game when I visited. They had them all in the dining room. There was just a double and a single room and a bathroom, but I would say they?re just basic. When I went there, it seemed pretty good. They can probably improve on the rooms.

My mom was at Watercrest at Mansfield for four years. The staff seemed nice. It was a big facility, but the rooms were small. She did like some of the food, but sometimes she did not like it. For the amount of money they paid, I think that they should have good food there. The facility was very clean and very nice. The inside and the outside were nice.

I thought the staff did a wonderful job of showing me around Watercrest and telling me all about the plans as well as showing me the different layout that they had available. They had everything you could possibly want there. They had a barber shop, a theatre, and a pool. I don’t remember what activities they had, but it seemed like they had something going on all the time. The place looked wonderful. To me it seemed like a resort you go to on a vacation. It was very clean, it smelled nice, and the rooms were very nice. It was set up like a resort almost. I was really impressed with it to tell you the truth.
