My mom moved into The Cove at Waterview’s assisted living. We chose them for their activities, the meal options, and the staff. Those were the 3 things that really stood out. They’ve got weekly things that they do, like last week it was "Seniors Gone Wild." They have baseball watching parties for the Texas Rangers baseball team. They’ve got meet and greets and happy hours. I think, at some times of the year, they have bus trips outside too. I have not tried it, but my mom has told me she likes the food. The staff has been very friendly, very informative, and they all appear like they really like working there. They’ve got multiple rooms that they can have activities in. There’s an exercise room, and they’ve got an in-house physical therapy person. They also have a library, a couple of the bigger rooms have TVs available to watch movies or sporting events, and the place is in really good repair and very good upkeep. (read less)

We were able to visit Courtyards at Lake Granbury. We saw their assisted living. There was a lot of construction going on because I think they had had water pipes break. We checked the rooms, and they were smaller too. The dining was being repaired from the water pipe break. We crossed it off of our list pretty quick. They had a beauty salon and not a whole lot of amenities. We met pretty much just the salesperson who took us around. She was very good, and I think I saw one or two other staff around. We just saw individual residents around too. We did not see any groups doing anything. We did not see any activities going on. We saw their laundry area, and it looked like a laundromat. (read less)

I was surprised by the staff. They truly cared for the residents. Most homes smell of urine and have a smell of death. This facility was always clean and the staff members were awesome to the patients. The place was so wonderful that I tried to gain employment through them. I was unqualified. I do have one negative thing to say. My grandfather has highly active taste buds, but even he said the food was bland. (read less)

COVID-19 Rules for Assisted Living in Granbury

What to Consider About Assisted Living in Granbury

Assisted living communities in Granbury receive regulation and licensing through the Health and Human Services Commission. Before a facility can apply for licensing, it must complete a pre-licensure course through the HHSC and potentially go through an on-site inspection after receiving its initial license. A survey of the facility occurs within 90 days of being licensed.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Granbury

• A major perk for seniors living in Granbury is that Texas doesn’t collect state income taxes. Thus, they won’t pay taxes on their retirement income, helping them stretch their dollars. The state makes up for not having state income taxes through higher-than-average property taxes, but seniors in assisted living shouldn’t have to worry about these taxes.
• Texas’ average combined state and local sales tax rate is 8.25%, one of the higher rates in the United States. However, as part of Hood County, Granbury seniors pay much less. The county only tacks on 0.50% to the state rate, and Granbury doesn’t collect local sales tax, for a combined total of 6.75%. This rate makes sales taxes in Granbury and Hood County lower than 83.9% of other Texas cities and counties. Groceries are tax-exempt and prescription and non-prescription medications only incur county sales taxes but not state.
• Although Granbury’s overall cost of living is marginally higher than the national average by 4%, the lack of state income taxes and lower sales taxes help offset some higher costs. The average cost of groceries is about 2% less than the national average, and don’t forget that they’re tax-exempt.
• Granbury has a higher-than-average property crime rate, but violent crime in the city is much lower than the national average. Violent crime is also lower in Granbury compared to the Dallas-Fort-Worth-Arlington Metro combined and the state average.
• Seniors may find it difficult to get scheduled with a physician in Granbury, as the city only has 114 doctors per 100,000 residents. This amount is much lower than the national average of 210. However, it does have a local hospital. Lake Granbury Medical Center is a general medical and surgical facility rated high-performing in treating heart failure and COPD.
• Spending time outdoors comes easy for seniors in Granbury, where they enjoy 229 sunny days compared to the national average of 205, lower-than-average 35 inches of annual rainfall and no snow. Summers can get hot, with the July high around 96 degrees, and about 65 nights in the winter months fall below freezing but none dip below 0.

Paying for Assisted Living in Granbury

The average cost of assisted living in Granbury is $4,195, but this amount can vary based on the facility’s services, amenities, housing options, levels of care and pricing structure.

The Cost of Assisted Living in Nearby Cities

The Cost of Other Types of Senior Care

Seniors comparing costs of other care types will find assisted living is the least expensive among residential senior care options. Although adult day health care costs less at $1,517, it provides limited support during regular business hours only. Seniors aging in place at home pay an average of $4,862 for non-medical in-home care and home health care. Those needing 24-7 nursing care pay an average of $5,627 for a semiprivate room in a nursing home facility.
